Best Operator Policy in a Heterogeneous Wireless Network

In this paper, we perform a business analysis of our hybrid decision algorithm for the selection of the access in a multi-operator networks environment. We investigate the ability of the operator to express his strategy and influence the access selection for his client. In this purpose, we study two important coefficients of the previously proposed cost function, Wu and Wop, and show that the value of these coefficients is not arbitrary. Simulation results show that the value of the ratio Wu/Wop enables a selection decision respecting operator's strategy and it affects the achieved global profit for all cooperating operators.
