Abstract

We consider a model in which two competing wireless service providers with licensed spectrum may pool a portion of their spectrum to better exploit statistical multiplexing. Given an amount of pooled spectrum, the providers engage in Cournot competition. We study the impact of pooling spectrum on the outcome of this competition and show that the gains from multiplexing are dissipated due to the competition among the providers.
