We are interested in the uplink, considering a non-coopertive game, where each user try to satisfy a quality of service. The uplink of a direct-sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) data network is considered and a non-cooperative game is proposed in which users are allowed to choose their uplink receivers as well as to satisfy their quality of service. The utility function used in this framework is defined so that the throughput used by the user is divided into two components : the throughput received from cellular Network, and throughput received from Virtual MIMO System. In addition, this framework is used to study a constrained Nash equilibrium for the proposed game, and the impact of the interaction among users.}, isbn = {978-1-4799-0959-9}, issn = {2376-6492}, author = {Bennani, Hassan and Sabir, Essaid and Kobbane, Abdellatif and Walid, Abdellaziz and Ben-Othman, Jalel} }
