Abstract--We study in this paper the problem of sharing the
cost of a multicast service in a wireless network. In a wireless
network, multiple users can decode the same signal of the base
station provided the received power exceeds a certain minimum
threshold. In this work, the cost for broadcasting is taken to be
the transmission power. We begin by proposing various schemes
to share the cost, and study their properties. We then study
the association problem where an user has options of either
