Performance Analysis of Arbitrarily-Shaped Underlay Cognitive Networks: Effects of Secondary User Activity Protocols
This paper analyzes the performance of the primary and secondary users (SUs)
in an arbitrarily-shaped underlay cognitive network. In order to meet the
interference threshold requirement for a primary receiver (PU-Rx) at an
arbitrary location, we consider different SU activity protocols which limit the
number of active SUs. We propose a framework, based on the moment generating
function (MGF) of the interference due to a random SU, to analytically compute
the outage probability in the primary network, as well as the average number of
active SUs in the secondary network. We also propose a cooperation-based SU
activity protocol in the underlay cognitive network which includes the existing
threshold-based protocol as a special case. We study the average number of
active SUs for the different SU activity protocols, subject to a given outage
probability constraint at the PU and we employ it as an analytical approach to
compare the effect of different SU activity protocols on the performance of the
primary and secondary networks.Comment: submitted to possible IEEE Transactions publicatio
Power Allocation and Cooperative Diversity in Two-Way Non-Regenerative Cognitive Radio Networks
In this paper, we investigate the performance of a dual-hop block fading
cognitive radio network with underlay spectrum sharing over independent but not
necessarily identically distributed (i.n.i.d.) Nakagami- fading channels.
The primary network consists of a source and a destination. Depending on
whether the secondary network which consists of two source nodes have a single
relay for cooperation or multiple relays thereby employs opportunistic relay
selection for cooperation and whether the two source nodes suffer from the
primary users' (PU) interference, two cases are considered in this paper, which
are referred to as Scenario (a) and Scenario (b), respectively. For the
considered underlay spectrum sharing, the transmit power constraint of the
proposed system is adjusted by interference limit on the primary network and
the interference imposed by primary user (PU). The developed new analysis
obtains new analytical results for the outage capacity (OC) and average symbol
error probability (ASEP). In particular, for Scenario (a), tight lower bounds
on the OC and ASEP of the secondary network are derived in closed-form. In
addition, a closed from expression for the end-to-end OC of Scenario (a) is
achieved. With regards to Scenario (b), a tight lower bound on the OC of the
secondary network is derived in closed-form. All analytical results are
corroborated using Monte Carlo simulation method
ARQ Protocols in Cognitive Decode-and-Forward Relay Networks: Opportunities Gain
In this paper, two novel automatic-repeat-request (ARQ) based protocols were proposed, which exploit coop- eration opportunity inherent in secondary retransmission to create access opportunities. If the signal was not decoded correctly in destination, another user can be acted as a relay to reduce retransmission rounds by relaying the signal. For comparison, we also propose a Direct ARQ Protocol. Specif- ically, we derive the exact closed-form outage probability of three protocols, which provides an effective means to evalu- ate the effects of several parameters. Moreover, we propose a new metric to evaluate the performance improvement for cognitive networks. Finally, Monte Carlo simulations were presented to validate the theory analysis, and a comparison is made among the three protocols
Outage performance of underlay cognitive radio networks over mix fading environment
In this paper, the underlay cognitive radio network over mix fading environment is presented and investigated. A cooperative cognitive system with a secondary source node S, a secondary destination node D, secondary relay node Relay, and a primary node P are considered. In this model system, we consider the mix fading environment in two scenarios as Rayleigh/Nakagami-m and Nakagami-m/Rayleigh Fading channels. For system performance analysis, the closed-form expression of the system outage probability (OP) and the integral-formed expression of the ergodic capacity (EC) are derived in connection with the system's primary parameters. Finally, we proposed the Monte Carlo simulation for convincing the correctness of the system performance
Outage Analysis for SWIPT-Enabled Two-Way Cognitive Cooperative Communications
In this paper, we study a cooperative cognitive radio network (CCRN) where
the secondary user-transmitter (SU-Tx) assists bi-directional communication
between a pair of primary users (PUs) following the principle of two-way
relaying. In return, it gets access to the spectrum of the PUs to enable its
own transmission to SU-receiver (SU-Rx). Further, in order to support
sustainable operation of the network, SU-Tx is assumed to harvest energy from
the RF signals received from the PUs, using the technique of simultaneous
wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT). Assuming a decode-and-forward
behaviour and power-splitting based relaying protocol at SU-Tx, closed form
expressions for outage probability of PU and SU are obtained. Simulation
results validate our analytical results and illustrate spectrum-efficiency and
energy-efficiency advantages of the proposed system over one-way relaying.Comment: 15 pages, 5 figures, Submitted to IEEE Transactions on Vehicular
