We consider a multichannel cognitive radio network where multiple secondary users (SUs) share a single channel and where multiple channels are simultaneously used by a single SU to satisfy their rate requirements. We attempt to evaluate the optimal power and rate distribution choices that each SU has to make to maintain their quality of service (QoS). Our measures for QoS include bit error rate (BER)...
This paper outlines the application of the heuristic Harmony Search (HS) algorithm for efficient spectrum allocation in cognitive radio networks under a minimum Bit Error Rate (BER) criterion. Our proposed algorithm provides a higher degree of diversity in the search process by virtue of its particular improvisation procedure, as opposed to evolutionary computation techniques used so far for this...
Cognitive Radio (CR) has attracted much attention for its ability allowing secondary users (SUs) to share the spectrum with licensed users (PUs). The precondition that PUs bear the coexistence of SUs is that the interference caused by SUs should be under a given threshold. Therefore the main challenge of CR is interference control or even interference cancellation. In this work we employ zero-forcing...
An optimal power and bit allocation scheme for rate maximization in the ultra wideband (UWB) cognitive radio system is presented in this paper. The scheme generates a series of M-ary quadrature amplitude modulation (M-QAM) zones over each UWB subcarrier. Total transmit power is optimally distributed among the UWB subcarriers for the use of the M-QAM modulation with a maximum M on each subcarrier....
