A cooperative differential game model based on network throughput and energy efficiency in wireless networks

Network throughout and energy efficiency are of paramount importance for network performance in an energy‐constrained wireless network. However, it is difficult to achieve optimal network throughout and energy efficiency simultaneously. So it is very necessary to find a solution based on tradeoff between network throughput and energy efficiency, which have not yet been well studied in existing works. In this paper, we present a cooperative differential game model and find a time‐consistency solution by Shapley value which determines a fair distribution of the total cooperative cost among players.
