Qi DONG, Zhenyu WU, Jun LU, Fengsong SUN, Jinyu WANG, Yanyu YANG, Xiaozhou SHANG

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2022, Volume 23, Issue 7,   Pages 995-1001 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.2100593

Abstract: Game is a universal being in the universe. Starting with human understanding of the game process, we discuss the existence and practice of gaming, expound challenges in multi-agent gaming, and put forward a theoretical framework for a multiagent evolutionary game based on the idea of evolution and system theory. Taking the next-generation early warning and detection system as an example, we introduce the applications of multi-agent evolutionary game. We construct a multi-agent selforganizing game decision-making model and develop a multi-agent method based on reinforcement learning, which are significant in studying organized and systematic game behaviors in a high-dimensional complex environment.

Yu SHI, Yongzhao HUA, Jianglong YU, Xiwang DONG, Zhang REN

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2022, Volume 23, Issue 7,   Pages 1043-1056 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.2200001

Abstract: This paper studies the multi-agent based problem and its application to cooperative . A systematized formulation and analysis method for the multi-agent is proposed and a methodology based on the (RL) technique is given. First, it is pointed out that typical distributed controllers may not necessarily lead to global Nash equilibrium of the in general cases because of the coupling of networked interactions. Second, to this end, an alternative local Nash solution is derived by defining the best response concept, while the problem is decomposed into local s. An off-policy RL algorithm using neighboring interactive data is constructed to update the controller without requiring a system model, while the stability and robustness properties are proved. Third, to further tackle the dilemma, another configuration is investigated based on modified coupling index functions. The distributed solution can achieve global Nash equilibrium in contrast to the previous case while guaranteeing the stability. An equivalent parallel RL method is constructed corresponding to this Nash solution. Finally, the effectiveness of the learning process and the stability of are illustrated in simulation results.

Gametheoretic analysis for themechanism of moving target defense Article

Gui-lin CAI, Bao-sheng WANG, Qian-qian XING

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2017, Volume 18, Issue 12,   Pages 2017-2034 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.1601797

Abstract: Moving target defense (MTD) is a novel way to alter the asymmetric situation of attacks and defenses, and a lot of MTD studies have been carried out recently. However, relevant analysis for the defense mechanism of the MTD technology is still absent. In this paper, we analyze the defense mechanism of MTD technology in two dimensions. First, we present a new defense model named MP2R to describe the proactivity and effect of MTD technology intuitively. Second, we use the incomplete information dynamic game theory to verify the proactivity and effect of MTD technology. Specifically, we model the interaction between a defender who equips a server with different types of MTD techniques and a visitor who can be a user or an attacker, and analyze the equilibria and their conditions for these models. Then, we take an existing incomplete information dynamic game model for traditional defense and its equilibrium result as baseline for comparison, to validate the proactivity and effect of MTD technology. We also identify the factors that will influence the proactivity and effectiveness of the MTD approaches. This work gives theoretical support for understanding the defense process and defense mechanism of MTD technology and provides suggestions to improve the effectiveness of MTD approaches.

Wang Lei, Chen Hua, Kang Meize, Ma Xiaochuan

Strategic Study of CAE 2019, Volume 21, Issue 6,   Pages 80-86 doi: 10.15302/J-SSCAE-2019.06.015

Abstract:

This study discusses marine rights protection from the perspective of game theory. It introduces the role of marine rights protection in handling marine disputes, as well as the nature, direction, and elements of the game in China’s marine rights protection. Currently, to minimize marine disputes through the game theory and pursue joint governance accord with China’s national interest. To this end, this study categorizes marine rights protection into three basic game processes, i.e., entry to disputed sea areas, cross-border operation by fishing boats, and non-cooperative fishing, and then conducts corresponding game analysis to determine the key directions for building the marine right protection force of China. It is concluded that improving technological means for marine rights protection can effectively change the game revenue and achieve a beneficial game equilibrium. In particular, the development of technologies for high-tech interference, underwater protection, marine wide-area surveillance, and remote sea fishery development can assist China to gain an advantageous position in repeated game processes.

Caching resource sharing in radio access networks: a game theoretic approach Article

Jun-feng XIE,Ren-chao XIE,Tao HUANG,Jiang LIU,F. Richard YU,Yun-jie LIU

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2016, Volume 17, Issue 12,   Pages 1253-1265 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.1500497

Abstract: Deployment of caching in wireless networks has been considered an effective method to cope with the challenge brought on by the explosive wireless traffic. Although some research has been conducted on caching in cellular networks, most of the previous works have focused on performance optimization for content caching. To the best of our knowledge, the problem of caching resource sharing for multiple service provider servers (SPSs) has been largely ignored. In this paper, by assuming that the caching capability is deployed in the base station of a radio access network, we consider the problem of caching resource sharing for multiple SPSs competing for the caching space. We formulate this problem as an oligopoly market model and use a dynamic non-cooperative game to obtain the optimal amount of caching space needed by the SPSs. In the dynamic game, the SPSs gradually and iteratively adjust their strategies based on their previous strategies and the information given by the base station. Then through rigorous mathematical analysis, the Nash equilibrium and stability condition of the dynamic game are proven. Finally, simulation results are presented to show the performance of the proposed dynamic caching resource allocation scheme.

Abstract: To deal with the threat of the new generation of electronic warfare, we establish a non-cooperative countermeasure game model to analyze and interference suppression between multistatic multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radars and in this study. First, according to the strategy, a supermodular game framework with a fixed weight (FW) vector is constructed. At the same time, a constrained optimization model for maximizing the radar utility function is established. Based on the utility function, the best strategies for the radars and jammers are obtained. The existence and uniqueness of the Nash equilibrium (NE) of the are proved. A algorithm with FW is proposed which converges to the NE. In addition, we use adaptive methods to suppress cross-channel interference that occurs as direct wave interferences between the radars and jammers. A algorithm for joint and is also proposed. The algorithm can ensure the best , and also improves the interference suppression ability of the . Finally, the effectiveness and convergence of two algorithms are verified by numerical results.

Resource allocation for network profit maximization in NOMA-based F-RANs: a game-theoretic approach Research Article

Xueyan CAO, Shi YAN, Hongming ZHANG

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2022, Volume 23, Issue 10,   Pages 1546-1561 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.2100341

Abstract:

(NOMA) based s (F-RANs) offer high spectrum efficiency, ultra-low delay, and huge network throughput, and this is made possible by edge computing and communication functions of the fog access points (F-APs). Meanwhile, caching-enabled F-APs are responsible for edge caching and delivery of a large volume of multimedia files during the caching phase, which facilitates further reduction in the transmission energy and burden. The need of the prevailing situation in industry is that in NOMA-based F-RANs, energy-efficient , which consists of (CP) and radio (RRA), is crucial for network performance enhancement. To this end, in this paper, we first characterize an NOMA-based F-RAN in which F-APs of caching capabilities underlaid with the radio remote heads serve user equipments via the NOMA protocol. Then, we formulate a problem for maximizing the defined performance indicator, namely network profit, which takes caching cost, revenue, and energy efficiency into consideration. The NP-hard problem is decomposed into two sub-problems, namely the CP sub-problem and RRA sub-problem. Finally, we propose an iterative method and a Stackelberg game based method to solve them, and numerical results show that the proposed solution can significantly improve network profit compared to some existing schemes in NOMA-based F-RANs.
