I. Introduction
The past decade has witnessed tremendous growth in emerging wireless technologies geared toward diverse applications [1]. Radio access networks (RANs) are becoming more heterogeneous and highly complex. Without well-designed inter-operation, mobile network operators (MNOs) must rely on their independent infrastructures and spectra to deliver data, often leading to duplication, redundancy, and inefficiency. A huge number of currently deployed business or individual access points (APs) have not been coordinated in the existing architecture of RANs, and are therefore under-utilized. Meanwhile, user equipments (UEs) are not granted to access to APs of operators other than their own, even though some of them may provide better link quality and economically sensible. The present state of rising traffic demands coupled with the under-utilization of existing spectra and infrastructure resources motivates the development of a novel network architecture to integrate multiple parties of service providers (SPs) and clients to transform the rigid network access paradigm that we face today.
