Spectral Efficiency of Multi-User Adaptive Cognitive Radio Networks
In this correspondence, the comprehensive problem of joint power, rate, and
subcarrier allocation have been investigated for enhancing the spectral
efficiency of multi-user orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA)
cognitive radio (CR) networks subject to satisfying total average transmission
power and aggregate interference constraints. We propose novel optimal radio
resource allocation (RRA) algorithms under different scenarios with
deterministic and probabilistic interference violation limits based on a
perfect and imperfect availability of cross-link channel state information
(CSI). In particular, we propose a probabilistic approach to mitigate the total
imposed interference on the primary service under imperfect cross-link CSI. A
closed-form mathematical formulation of the cumulative density function (cdf)
for the received signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) is formulated
to evaluate the resultant average spectral efficiency (ASE). Dual decomposition
is utilized to obtain sub-optimal solutions for the non-convex optimization
problems. Through simulation results, we investigate the achievable performance
and the impact of parameters uncertainty on the overall system performance.
Furthermore, we present that the developed RRA algorithms can considerably
improve the cognitive performance whilst abide the imposed power constraints.
In particular, the performance under imperfect cross-link CSI knowledge for the
proposed `probabilistic case' is compared to the conventional scenarios to show
the potential gain in employing this scheme
Analytical evaluation of adaptive-modulation-based opportunistic cognitive radio in Nakagami-m fading channels
The performance of adaptive modulation for cognitive radio with opportunistic access is analyzed by considering the effects of spectrum sensing, primary user (PU) traffic, and time delay for Nakagami- m fading channels. Both the adaptive continuous rate scheme and the adaptive discrete rate scheme are considered. Numerical examples are presented to quantify the effects of spectrum sensing, PU traffic, and time delay for different system parameters
Robust Power and Subcarrier Allocation for OFDM-based Cognitive Radio Networks Considering Spectrum Sensing Uncertainties
âIn this paperâ, âwe address power and subcarrier allocation for cooperative cognitive radio (CR) networks in the presence of spectrum sensing errorsâ. âFirstâ, âwe derive the mutual interference of primary and secondary networks affecting each other by taking into account spectrum sensing errorsâ. âThenâ, âtaking into account the interference constraint imposed by the cognitive network to the primary user and the power budget constraint of cognitive networkâ, âwe maximize the achievable data rates of secondary usersâ. âBesidesâ, âin a multi secondary user scenarioâ, âwe propose a suboptimal but low complexity power and subcarrier allocation algorithm to solve the formulated optimization problemâ. âOur numerical results indicate that the proposed power loading scheme increases the cognitive achievable data rates compared to classical power loading algorithms that do not consider spectrum sensing errorsâ
Adaptive Modulation and Coding and Cooperative ARQ in a Cognitive Radio System
In this paper, a joint cross-layer design of adaptive modulation and coding
(AMC) and cooperative automatic repeat request (C-ARQ) scheme is proposed for a
secondary user in a shared-spectrum environment. First, based on the
statistical descriptions of the channel, closed-form expressions of the average
spectral efficiency (SE) and the average packet loss rate (PLR) are presented.
Then, the cross-layer scheme is designed, with the aim of maximizing the
average SE while maintaining the average PLR under a prescribed level. An
optimization problem is formed, and a sub-optimal solution is found: the target
packet error rates (PER) for the secondary system channels are obtained and the
corresponding sub-optimal AMC rate adaptation policy is derived based on the
target PERs. Finally, the average SE and the average PLR performance of the
proposed scheme are presented
