This book offers a framework for modeling and solving utility maximization problems in nonconvex wireless systems, presenting a general model for utility optimization in wireless systems, methods for solving problems, and case studies showing the model in use.

This monograph develops a framework for modeling and solving utility maximization problems in nonconvex wireless systems. The first part develops a model for utility optimization in wireless systems. The model is general enough to encompass a wide array of system configurations and performance objectives. Based on the general model, a set of methods for solving utility maximization problems is developed in the second part of the book. The development is based on a careful examination of the properties that are required for the application of each method. This part focuses on problems whose...
