Abstract
Game theory is a set of tools developed to model interactions between agents with conflicting interests, and is thus well-suited to address some problems in communications systems. We present some of the basic concepts of game theory and show why it is an appropriate tool for analyzing some communication problems and providing insights into how communication systems should be designed. We then provided a detailed example in which game theory is applied to the power control problem in a CDMA-like system.
