Description
Summary:In this paper, we propose a stochastic geometry based pricing for infrastructure sharing in Internet of Things (IoT) networks. We consider a game consisting of a Network Operator (NO) as the seller and an IoT Device Owner (DO) as the buyer in which the seller owns an infrastructure that can address the communication needs of the DO. Using the proposed scheme, we show that DO and NO can reach a win-win deal in which a reasonable cost is imposed to DO in exchange of providing an acceptable coverage by the NO. In particular, we show that the DO can achieve a coverage probability of interest at a lower cost compared to the case in which the proposed pricing model is absent. The proposed idea provides a transparent pricing model between NOs and DOs and paves the road for IoT applications to become more widespread.
