A new game theoretical solution concept for open spectrum sharing in cognitive radio (CR) environments is highlighted – the Lorenz equilibrium (LE). Both Nash and Pareto solution concepts have limitations when applied to real world problems. Nash equilibrium (NE) rarely ensures maximal payoff and it is frequently Pareto inefficient. The Pareto set is usually a large set of solutions, often too hard to process. The Lorenz equilibrium is a subset of Pareto efficient solutions that are equitable for all players and ensures a higher payoff than the Nash equilibrium. LE induces a selection criterion of NE, when several are present in a game (e.g. many-player discrete games) and when fairness is an issue. Besides being an effective NE selection criterion, the LE is an interesting game theoretical situation
per se
, useful for CR interaction analysis.
