论文摘要
无线电蜂窝网络中的虚拟化技术引入了基于托管天线并由所谓的塔楼公司（TowerCos）经营的塔外包的企业出现。在本文中，我们开发了一种基线业务模型，用于研究网络运营商与塔科斯之间的潜在关系。事实证明，当网络运营商外包塔的管理可以优雅地利用以降低价格以吸引更多客户时，实现的运营成本增长。但是，必须仔细实现价格下跌，以免破坏运营商之间的市场份额并保持竞争。为了证明这一主张，我们在第一步中采用集中优化公式。在第二步中，我们开发了游戏理论框架。
The introduction of virtualization techniques in radio cellular networks allows the emergence of a business based on the outsourcing of towers hosting antennas and operated by the so-called Tower Companies (TowerCos). In this paper, we develop a baseline business model for studying the potential relationships between network operators and TowerCos. It turns out that the gain in operational costs achieved when network operators outsource the management of towers can be gracefully utilized to reduce prices so as to attract more customers. The price drop has however to be carefully realized so as not to break the market share between operators and to preserve competition. To prove this claim, we adopt in a first step a centralized optimization formulation. In a second step, we develop a game theoretic framework.
