Learning Outcomes

The module is developed to provide an introduction to game theory and mechanism design, with an emphasis on applications in next generation wireless networks. It consists of two courses in sequence. In the first course, which is held in the conventional frontal teaching form, basic game-theoretical models and concepts are introduced. The second course is a combination of lecture and seminar. In the first few weeks, emerging wireless networking architecture and concepts, together with open challenges and research directions, are discussed by the lecturer. The rest of the course is then held in the seminar form, where students present research works in which the challenges are addressed by using game theory.

Description of Teaching and Learning Methods

The course consists of two parts, the first part plus almost half of the second part is held in the conventional teaching form to provide the students with necessary knowledge. The second course also includes seminar in order to enhance the self-learning ability and presentation skills of students. Also a project is foreseen to apply the learned materials in a real-world networking problem, which improves the analytical and/or programming skills of students.

Requirements for participation and examination

Desirable prerequisites for participation in the courses:

Prerequisite to attend the first course are calculus and probability theory at the level of MSc students in engineering. Prerequisite to attend the second course is basic knowledge of wireless communications.

Mandatory requirements for the module test application:

This module has no requirements.
