Multi-channel allocation in wireless sensor and actuator networks is formulated as an optimization problem,a distributed Game Based Channel Allocation Algorithm is proposed by taking into account both network topology and routing information. For both tree/forest and non-tree/forest routing, it is proved that there exists at least one Nash Equilibrium for the problem. Furthermore, the sub-optimality of NE and the convergence of the Best Response dynamics are also analyzed.
