Secure Transmission With Guaranteed User Satisfaction in Heterogeneous Networks: A Two-Level Stackelberg Game Approach.

In this paper, secure transmission in a heterogeneous network in the presence of multiple eavesdroppers is studied. A game-theoretic framework is proposed to enhance the security of the macro base station (MBS), while guaranteeing user satisfaction of the small base stations (SBSs) by exploiting the cooperation and competition among the entire network. Specifically, a two-level Stackelberg game is...
