In wireless multi-hop networks, the quality of service provided by the system heavily depends on the cooperation between nodes. However, nodes are reluctant to cooperate with each other to save their limited resources. This tendency will put a limit on the application of the current wireless multi-hop networks. Therefore, game theory, which can analyze the strategic interactions among autonomous decision makers, becomes an ideal candidate to solve the above problem. In this paper, we first
