Abstract

In this paper, competitive interactions between a secondary transmitter-receiver pair and a jammer are investigated in a distributed manner over N orthogonal frequency bands, each of which is licensed to a primary user (PU). There is an interference restriction at the secondary receiver (SR) and power budget constraints at the secondary transmitter (ST) and the jammer. In addition, the ST (jammer) does not know the channels' gains of the jammer (ST). After sensing each of the frequency bands, the ST and the jammer decide how to transmit information and how to block these transmissions respectively. In this respect, both the ST and the jammer incur a communication cost and the SR sends an acknowledgment (ACK) if it decodes the information correctly. Otherwise, it sends a negative ACK (NACK). The strategic and distributed power allocation between the ST and the jammer is modeled as a stochastic game in which we employ a multiplicative weight no-regret learning mechanism to obtain an equilibrium point.
