In this letter, we improve the tradeoff among the downlink (DL) rates of service providers (SPs), provided by a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) using non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) technique. In this respect, NOMA provides a suitable opportunity for the MVNO to share resources among SPs more efficiently. Regarding interaction among the DL rates provided for SPs we formulate our resource allocation problem as a multiobjective optimization problem (MOOP) while taking into account user fairness. By using the weighted Tchebycheff technique, we are able to solve the formulated MOOP by considering different tradeoffs among DL rates of different SPs. Our numerical results show that by...

In this paper, we analyze the tradeoff between the profits gained by mobile virtual network operators (MVNOs) in an orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA)-based virtualized wireless networks (VWNs). In this respect, MVNOs rent the network resources from a mobile network operator (MNO) to create virtual resources based on allocated rates and the cost due to allocated transmit powers in two different strategies: resource-based isolation strategy and rate-based isolation strategy. In resource-based isolation strategy, it is assumed that the whole bandwidth in each base station is divided equally between MVNOs whereas in rate-based isolation strategy, the whole bandwidth in each...
