Cognitive radio network security: A survey

Recent advancements in wireless communication are creating a spectrum shortage problem on a daily basis. Recently, Cognitive Radio (CR), a novel technology, has attempted to minimize this problem by dynamically using the free spectrum in wireless communications and mobile computing. Cognitive radio networks (CRNs) can be formed using cognitive radios by extending the radio link features to network layer functions. The objective of CRN architecture is to improve the whole network operation to fulfil the user's demands anytime and anywhere, through accessing CRNs in a more efficient way, rather than by just linking spectral efficiency. CRNs are more flexible and exposed to wireless networks compared with other traditional radio networks. Hence, there are many security threats to CRNs, more so than other traditional radio environments. The unique characteristics of CRNs make security more challenging. Several crucial issues have not yet been investigated in the area of security for CRNs. A typical public key infrastructure (PKI) scheme which achieves secure routing and other purposes in typical ad hoc networks is not enough to guarantee the security of CRNs under limited communication and computation resources. However, there has been increasing research attention on security threats caused specifically by CR techniques and special characteristics of CR in CRNs. Therefore, in this research, a survey of CRNs and their architectures and security issues has been carried out in a broad way in this paper.     

Game theory for cognitive radio networks: An overview

Cognitive radio technology, a revolutionary communication paradigm that can utilize the existing wireless spectrum resources more efficiently, has been receiving a growing attention in recent years. As network users need to adapt their operating parameters to the dynamic environment, who may pursue different goals, traditional spectrum sharing approaches based on a fully cooperative, static, and centralized network environment are no longer applicable. Instead, game theory has been recognized as an important tool in studying, modeling, and analyzing the cognitive interaction process. In this tutorial survey, we introduce the most fundamental concepts of game theory, and explain in detail how these concepts can be leveraged in designing spectrum sharing protocols, with an emphasis on state-of-the-art research contributions in cognitive radio networking. Research challenges and future directions in game theoretic modeling approaches are also outlined. This tutorial survey provides a comprehensive treatment of game theory with important applications in cognitive radio networks, and will aid the design of efficient, self-enforcing, and distributed spectrum sharing schemes in future wireless networks.

Could a Caveman Do It? The Surprising Potential of Simple Attacks

The research projects our investigations have spawned span topics in attack modeling, quantifying the effects of attacks on network performance and robustness, and the construction of computational tools for managing our simulation experiments. We hope, however, that our work's meta-contribution is to show, by proof of concept, that you must consider simple, sideways system attacks before you can rely on a system. We encourage engineers of mission-critical systems to look for then cavemen (or squirrels) and to study carefully what actions these adversaries might take against the products they roll out. In this paper we examine simple attacks on routing protocols for wireless networks. In our study, the system was to be a wireless ad hoc network, a collection of independent, possibly mobile computing devices that communicate using radio frequency technology.     

Outage and energy-efficiency analysis of cognitive radio networks: A stochastic approach to transmit antenna selection

Cognitive radio networks have recently attracted significant research attention owing to their promise for application in future cellular communication. In this light, given the intense power consumption of wireless networks, considerable research is now being directed at designing random cognitive radio networks with enhanced energy efficiency. In this study, we investigate the outage probability and energy efficiency in a cognitive radio network, modeling the locations of the primary users and cognitive users as a Poisson point process. We derive closed-form expressions for the outage probability and energy efficiency with consideration of the probabilities of unoccupied (not utilized by the primary users) channel selection and successful transmission for imperfect detection in an interference-limited environment of cognitive radio network. Furthermore, we propose a transmit antenna selection method for the cognitive transmitter in such networks and accordingly develop closed-form expressions for the outage probability and energy efficiency. The study reported here highlights the importance of combining the capabilities of unoccupied channel selection and successful transmission in cognitive radio networks to achieve optimal performance regarding outage probability and energy efficiency. In terms of energy efficiency, there is an optimal threshold that maximizes the energy efficiency. For implementation in transmit antenna selection, the outage probability can be significantly decreased by increasing the number of transmit antennas, even though the energy efficiency is maximized at the target outage probability.

Service level agreements (SLAs) parameter negotiation between heterogeneous 4G wireless network operators

We are currently witnessing a growing interest of network operators to migrate their existing 2G/3G networks to 4G technologies such as long-term evolution (LTE) to enhance the user experience and service opportunities in terms of providing multi-megabit bandwidth, more efficient use of radio networks, latency reduction, and improved mobility. Along with this, there is a strong deployment of packet data networks such as those based on IEEE 802.11 and 802.16 standards. Mobile devices are having increased capabilities to access many of these wireless networks types at the same time. Reinforcing quality of service (QoS) in 4G wireless networks will be a major challenge because of varying bit rates, channel characteristics, bandwidth allocation and global roaming support among heterogeneous wireless networks. As a mobile user moves across access networks, to the issue of mapping resource reservations between different networks to maintain QoS behavior becomes crucial. To support global roaming and interoperability across heterogeneous wireless networks, it is important for wireless network operators to negotiate service level agreement (SLA) contracts relevant to the QoS requirements. Wireless IP traffic modeling (in terms of providing assured QoS) is still immature because the majority of the existing work is merely based on the characterization of wireless IP traffic without investigating the behavior of queueing systems for such traffic. To overcome such limitations, we investigate SLA parameter negotiation among heterogeneous wireless network operators by focusing on traffic engineering and QoS together for 4G wireless networks. We present a novel mechanism that achieves service continuity through SLA parameter negotiation by using a translation matrix, which maps QoS parameters between different access networks. The SLA matrix composition is modeled analytically based on the G/M/1 queueing system. We evaluate the model using two different scheduling schemes and we derive closed form expressions for different QoS parameters for performance metrics such as packet delay and packet loss rate. We also develop a discrete event simulator and conduct a series of simulation experiments in order to understand the QoS behavior of corresponding traffic classes.
