Abstract

In this letter, we propose an incentivized relaying scheme for CDMA-based wireless mesh networks for broadband Internet access. This scheme is applied to entice the users, i.e., mesh clients, in range of the mesh infrastructure (mesh routers) to relay traffic to those clients that are in range with them, but are out of communication range of the mesh routers. To apply this mechanism, in-range clients participate in a game through which they decide how to allocate their resources. The convergence and fixed point characteristics of this game are investigated in a numerical study.
