Optimal Static Pricing of Reverse-Link DS-CDMA Multiclass Traffic

Overview Third Generation (3G) wireless systems are becoming very popular thanks to a better quality than in the current 2G. Direct-sequence code-division multiple-access (DS-CDMA) is a solution implemented in these systems but, due to a limited radio spectrum and the growing number of demanding applications, it seems likely that congestion will still be a problem. Pricing appears as a simple way to tackle this problem. This paper studies the impact of a per-packet static pricing scheme on the use of the reverse-link in a cell, where demand (defined through the so-called utility functions) decreases when prices increase or quality of service decreases.
