Abstract
The aim of this chapter is to address the role of a novel concept in wireless telecommunications: Game theory. Game theory is a branch of applied mathematics, which has recently drawn attention as a powerful tool to solve complex problems in wireless environments. To fulfil the intended goal, this chapter introduces the most relevant concepts of game theory such as game, player, and strategy, and give an overview of the applications of game theory in wireless networks.
