研究了有策略用户的多速率组播业务分配中的分散带宽/速率分配问题。我们证明，这种情况是市场问题和公共产品问题的结合。提出了一种用户效用为凹时的机制/博弈形式：(1)在纳什均衡下实现了多速率组播业务分配中相应的集中速率分配问题的求解。(2)它是个体理性的。(3)在由机制/博弈形式引起的博弈的所有纳什均衡以及导致可行分配的所有非均衡信息/策略中，它都是预算平衡的。
We consider the decentralized bandwidth/rate allocation problem in multi-rate multicast service provisioning with strategic users. We demonstrate that such a situation is the combination of a market problem and a public goods problem. We present a mechanism/game form which possesses the following properties when the users' utilities are concave: (1) It implements in Nash equilibria the solution of the corresponding centralized rate allocation problem in multi-rate multicast service provisioning. (2) It is individually rational. (3) It is budget-balanced at all Nash equilibria of the game induced by the mechanism/game form as well as at all off equilibrium messages/strategies that result in feasible allocations.
