Improving a Utility Function for Wireless Data
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a significant improvement to a quality-of-service index on which several recently published scholarly works have been based. They use this index as a “utility function” in a formulation of radio resource management issues, in particular power control, from the perspective and explicitly using the language of microeconomic theory. The literature’s index is based on an ad-hoc, difficult to interpret transformation of a physically-significant, intuitively appealing but technically misbehaving ratio. Our index is physically significant, and intuitively appealing, without the technical misbehavior which made the original ratio undesirable.
