Table 1
The game scenarios in our work.
| Scenario | Actor | Strategy | Payoff |
| ETR game | ETRs | Each player hopes to find the optimal charging power offered to its associating VAP to maximize its individual profit. | The utility of any player is computed by formula (6). |
| VAP game | VAPs | Each player hopes to find the optimal forwarding power to offer data forwarding service for its associating UEs to maximize its individual profit. | The utility of any player is computed by formula (13). |
| Stackelberg game | MBS ETRs VAPs | The MBS hopes to obtain the maximum forwarding traffic from the VAPs but just wants to pay the minimum price of energy. | The utility of the MBS is computed by formula (17). |
