Emergence of new wireless technologies has facilitated the way to higher data rates and more robust communication links. Ultra wideband (UWB) is one of these promising technologies that, despite its several outstanding benefits, can cause interference to other networks operating in the same frequency range because of its large bandwidth. In this study, the authors introduce a solution for interference management in heterogeneous UWB networks. The analysis can be generalised for other coexistence scenarios where we have wireless networks with different specifications. Game theory is used to study the joint power and rate control problem under mutual interference between two UWB standards, namely, multiband orthogonal frequency division multiplexing UWB and direct-sequence UWB. A non-cooperative joint rate and power control game with pricing (NRPGP) in which each node seeks to choose its possible transmit power and rate in order to maximise its own utility while satisfying its target signal-to-interference-and-noise ratio as quality-of-service requirement is introduced. Simulation results are provided to evaluate the performance of the proposed game, NRPGP.
