Abstract: Nash bargaining solution (NBS) is applied to the resource allocation in wireless networks so that a fair allocation scheme, based on utility, was proposed. Through a case study, the new scheme was proved to be superior to the existing scheme of equal utility value. A distributed model of the scheme was also introduced. The users could maximize independently their own net utility with the model in a proper pricing policy. As a result, the network achieves an optimized total utility.

Key words: resource adaptation, utility, fairness, Nash bargaining solution
