Spectrum sensing is arguably the most important task expected of a cognitive radio. An effective spectrum sensing algorithm enables the cognitive radio to transmit without causing harmful interference to the licensed user. However, in a multi-user environment, the aggregate interference to the sensing node may adversely affect its sensing performance. In this paper, we investigate the performance...
In this paper, the queue dynamics of secondary users (SUs) in a multi-SU and multi-channel cognitive radio network is analyzed to obtain the expressions of quality of service (QoS) metrics. Specially, in the analysis, we take several lower-layer mechanisms and settings into account, including automatic repeat request (ARQ), finite-size buffer, adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) and non-ignorable...
We consider a time slotted cognitive radio (CR) network under Rayleigh fading where multiple secondary users (SUs) contend for spectrum usage over available primary users' channels. In the contention, all SUs use common access probabilities to decide whether they access one of available channels. We focus on the throughput performance of an arbitrary SU. To improve the throughput performance of SUs,...
Cognitive radios have been advanced as a solution to improve spectral efficiency through opportunistic access of the spectrum by unlicensed users. In order to achieve its objective, a cognitive radio is required to conduct periodic spectrum sensing to avoid interfering with the licensed user of the spectrum. In this paper, we examine a multi-channel occupied by a licensed user (primary user) employing...
