With the increase in user demand for internet access on move, spectrum resource seems to deplete and leads to spectrum crunch. Recent researches reports that this spectrum crunch is not due to spectrum scarcity but due to spectrum underutilization because of legacy static spectrum allocation of spectrum bands. This spectrum utilization and efficiency can be improved by using Dynamic Spectrum Access (DSA) techniques, which correlate with cognitive radio technology in one way or the other. There are three basic approach of communication for cognitive radio technology: Inter-weaved approach, Underlay approach and Overlay approach. Extensive researches has been proposed so far based on the inter-weaved approach and little or negligible using underlay or overlay approach. Using these modes the cognitive users can coexist with the primary users at same geographic time and location. In this paper simple and unique Adaptive Power Control (APC) technique for underlay approach for cognitive radio mobile network is proposed. This techniques introduces a Power Adaptive Transmission (PAT) metric which overcomes three major issues. Firstly, this proposed techniques work efficiently over highly active licensed networks with marginal increased throughput of 0.2 Mbps. Secondly, APC this technique adapts to the requirement of cognitive user and Lastly, primary user power is monitored, to prevent interference and maintain the Quality of Service (QoS) of primary user. Under simulation testing the proposed APC technique outperforms various other underlay as well hybrid techniques for power control under cognitive radio environment with 11% increase in throughput and 32% decrease in delay using APC.
相似文献Location information of mobile primary users is one of the essential requirements for an underlay cognitive radio user to utilize the licensed spectrum efficiently. The performance of various location-based applications such as global navigation satellite system, device to device communication in dense urban 5G network also depends on the localization accuracy. In this paper, a collaborative localization scheme based on received signal strength has been proposed. The weighted centroid localization algorithm has been applied in the proposed network scenario to compute location coordinates of the mobile primary user. Since the channel noise effects are random and unavoidable, this paper has focused on the mitigation of the internal noise by designing a suitable reconfigurable FIR filter after the demodulator stage of a cognitive radio receiver circuit to improve precision of signal measurement during primary user localization. The localization error rate has come down to (1.3–1.62) % after internal noise mitigation. The enhancement in the localization accuracy improves the overall spectrum utilization efficiency and reduces the miss detection and false detection probabilities in the proposed underlay network.
相似文献LTE-unlicensed (LTE-U) technology is a promising innovation to extend the capacity of cellular networks. The primary challenge for LTE-U is the fair coexistence between LTE systems and the incumbent WiFi systems. In this paper, we aim to maximize the long-term average per-user LTE throughput with long-term fairness guarantee by jointly considering resource allocation and user association on the unlicensed spectrum within a prediction window. We first formulate the problem as an NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem, then reformulate it as a non-cooperative game by applying the penalty function method. To solve the game, a novel reinforcement learning approach based on Bi-directional LSTM neural network is proposed, which enables small base stations (SBSs) to predict a sequence of future actions over the next prediction window based on the historical network information. It is shown that the proposed approach can converge to a mixed-strategy Nash equilibrium of the studied game and ensure the long-term fair coexistence between different access technologies. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated by numerical simulation.
相似文献In communication industry one of the most rapidly growing area is wireless technology and its applications. The efficient access to radio spectrum is a requirement to make this communication feasible for the users that are running multimedia applications and establishing real-time connections on an already overcrowded spectrum. In recent times cognitive radios (CR) are becoming the prime candidates for improved utilization of available spectrum. The unlicensed secondary users share the spectrum with primary licensed user in such manners that the interference at the primary user does not increase from a predefined threshold. In this paper, we propose an algorithm to address the power control problem for CR networks. The proposed solution models the wireless system with a non-cooperative game, in which each player maximize its utility in a competitive environment. The simulation results shows that the proposed algorithm improves the performance of the network in terms of high SINR and low power consumption.
相似文献The spectrum is a scarce resource and shall be used efficiently. It is observed that fixed spectrum allocation techniques, currently in use, may not be able to accommodate increased number of users trying simultaneously to access the network. Researches suggest that this problem of spectrum scarcity can be addressed by cognitive radio networks; which permits the dynamic use of spectrum. One of the basic requirements of dynamic spectrum access in cognitive radio network is spectrum handoff. There is an associated issue with frequent spectrum handoffs and that is of the ping-pong ect. The ping-pong ect is caused due to the motion of mobile users between the adjacent cells, thus, initiating unnecessary spectrum handoffs. The purpose of this study is to develop and analyse a system that has the ability to perform cient decision about the execution of spectrum handoffs and in turn reduce the chances of ping-pong ect. Therefore, a fuzzy logic based system has been developed in a cognitive radio WLAN and UMTS environment and handoff is investigated between primary and secondary users. Our proposed hybrid system uses a two-stage fuzzy logic controller to reduce the number of ping-pong handoffs. In the rst stage, the system is designed to control the power of SU and to avoid any interference to PU. In the second stage, the system is designed to take the decision to execute handoff.
相似文献Densifying the network by adding more minicell towers or relays throughout a hot spot area while extensively reusing the available spectrum is an essential choice to improve QoS. Unfortunately, this approach can be prohibitively costly. One possible solution to reduce the capital and operating expenditure in such overdensified networks is the adoption of the spectrum-sharing approach. However, both approaches would complicate the interference phenomenon either among inter- or intraoperators, which may cause serious performance degradation. In this paper, a fully hybrid spectrum-sharing (FHSS) approach aided by an efficient cell–carrier distribution was proposed with consideration to the interference dilemma. Moreover, an adaptive hybrid QoE-based mmWave user association (mUA) scheme was presented to assign a typical user to the serving mmWave base station (mBS), which offers the highest achievable data rate. The proposed FHSS approach (with the presented QoE-based mUA) was compared with recent works and with both FHSS approach using the conventional max-SINR-based mUA, which assigns a typical user to the tagged mBS carrying the highest signal-to-interference-plus noise ratio and the baseline scenario (licensed spectrum access). In particular, three spectrum access methods (licensed, semipooled, and fully pooled) were integrated in a hybrid manner to engage improved data rates to users. Numerical results show that the joint cell–carrier distribution and FHSS approach with QoE-based mUA outperform both baselines FHSS with the max-SINR mUA scheme and the licensed spectrum access. Furthermore, results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach in terms of both operators’ independence and fairness.
相似文献In cluster-based cooperative cognitive radio networks (CCRNs), spectrum sensing and decision making processes to determine whether the primary user (PU) signal is present or absent in the network are very important and vital issues to the utilisation of the idle spectrum. The reporting time delay is a very important matter to make quick and effective global decisions for the fusion center (FC) in a cluster-based CCRNs. In this paper, we propose the concept of multiple reporting channels (MRC) for cluster-based CCRNs to better utilize the reporting time slot by extending the sensing time of secondary users (SUs). A multiple reporting channels concept is proposed based on frequency division multiple access to enhance the spectrum sensing performance and reduce the reporting time delay of all cluster heads (CHs). In this approach, we assign an individual reporting channel to each cluster for reporting purposes. All the SUs in each cluster sequentially pass their sensing results to the corresponding cluster head (CH) via the assigned single reporting channel, which extends the sensing time duration of SUs. Each CH uses the dedicated reporting channel to forward the cluster decision to the FC that makes a final decision by using the “K-out-of-N” rule to identify the presence of the PU signal. This approach significantly enhances the sensing time for all SUs than the non-sequential as well as minimize the reporting time delay of all CHs than sequential single channel reporting approach. These two features of our proposed approach increase the decision accuracy of the FC more than the conventional approach. Simulation results prove that our proposed approach significantly enhances the sensing accuracy and mitigate the reporting time delay of CH compared to the conventional approach.
