dc.description.abstractAs an emerging technology for anywhere anytime healthcare, Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs) bring many benefits as well as challenges. One practical issue is the coexistence of multiple networks in a limited space under resource constraints. Game theory, originally developed from economics, is a mathematical tool to analyse decision making among self-interested agents. Due to the heterogeneous, distributed and autonomous nature of WBANs, game theory is believed to be an appropriate tool to study the coexistence issue. This paper formulates a flexible game theoretic framework to study WBAN coexistence. We provide a detailed mathematical analysis for a 2-player game. When the number of WBANs increases in a game, the complexity in utility calculation and simulations grows greatly. We propose an estimation method to model games involving more than two players.
