Abstract

An efficient and intelligent resource allocation mechanism is the heart of any communication networks. Based on previous work on non-cooperative game approach and direct centralized optimization, this paper addresses the issue of efficiency and fairness in optical network power control. We use Nash bargaining solution (NBS) to achieve a fair and efficient solution for optical network power control at the end-to-end optical link level. We study different formulations based on Nash bargaining model and characterize their solutions.
