Network Competition: I. Overview and Nondiscriminatory Pricing
构建了一个互联网络间非管制竞争的模型，分析了行业成熟期和转型期的情况，发现高接入费或高网络替代性可能导致竞争均衡不存在，且自由协商的接入费可能阻碍有效竞争并设置进入壁垒。
We develop a model of unregulated competition between interconnected networks and analyze the mature and transition phases of the industry in this deregulated environ-ment. Networks pay (negotiated or regulated) access charges to each other and com-pete in prices for customers. We show that a competitive equilibrium may fail to exist for large access charges or for large network substitutability, and that freely negotiated access charges may prevent effective competition in the mature phase of the industry and erect barriers to entry in the transition toward competition. Last, we examine the meaning and impact of policies such as the efficient component pricing rule.
