Cognitive Radio (CR) is considered to be a novel approach to improve the underutilization of precious radio resources by exploiting the unused licensed spectrum in dynamically changing environments. Designing efficient resource allocation algorithms for dynamic spectrum sharing and for power allocation in OFDM-CR networks is still a challenging problem. In this thesis, we specifically deal with these two problems. Dynamic spectrum sharing for the unlicensed secondary users (SU)s with device coordination could minimize the wastage of the spectrum. But this is a feasible approach only if the network considers the fairness criterion. We study the dynamic spectrum sharing problem for device coordinated cognitive radio networks with respect to fairness. We propose a simple modified proportional fair algorithm for a dynamic spectrum sharing scenario with two constraints, time and utility. Utility is measured by the amount of data processed and time is measured as the duration of a slot. This algorithm could result in variable or fixed length time slots. We will discuss the several controls possible on the algorithm and the possible extension of this algorithm for multicarrier OFDM based CR systems. Traditional water-filling algorithm is inefficient for OFDM-CR networks due to the interaction with primary users (PU)s. We consider reliability/availability of subcarriers or primary user activity for power allocation. We model this aspect mathematically with a risk-return model by defining a general rate loss function. We then propose optimal and suboptimal algorithms to allocate power under a fixed power budget for such a system with linear rate loss. These algorithms as we will see allocate more power to more reliable subcarriers in a water-filling fashion with different water levels. We compare the performance of these algorithms for our model with respect to water-filling solutions. Simulations show that suboptimal schemes perform closer to optimal scheme although they co.

This book is about cognitive radio (CR), a revolution in radio technology and an enabling technology for dynamic spectrum access. Due to the unique characteristics of the wireless networks, it is essential to address the approach of multiple layers (e.g., physical, link, and network) to maximize the network performance. The formulation of this cross-layer problem is usually complicated and challenging, while wireless resource allocation is a vital way to handle the race condition of the limited wireless resources. However, given the intrinsic characteristics of cognitive radio networks (CRN), none of the existing analytical approach could be a direct fit. Therefore, innovative theoretical results, along with the corresponding mathematical techniques, are necessary. In this book, we aim to develop some novel algorithmic design and optimization techniques that provide optimal or near-optimal solutions. Although cross-layer design has been introduced to CRN for many years, there are rarely any books for researchers, engineers, and students, from the engineering perspective. From one hand, most of the existing books primarily focus on the mathematical and economic aspects, which are considerably different from the engineering. On the other hand, all of the books mainly aim to system optimization or control techniques, while the cross-layer algorithm design in the distributed environment is usually ignored. As the result, there is an urgent demand for a reference source, which can provide complete information on how to fully adopt cross-layer resource allocation to the CRN. In this regard, this book not only focuses on the description of the main aspects of cross-layer resource allocation over CRN, but also provides a review of the application solutions. In a nutshell, it provides a specific treatment of cross-layer design in CRN. The topics range from the basic concepts of cross-layer resource allocation, to the state-of-the-art analyses, modelings, and optimizations for CRN.

We are currently witnessing an increase in telecommunications norms and standards given the recent advances in this field. The increasing number of normalized standards paves the way for an increase in the range of services available for each consumer. Moreover, the majority of available radio frequencies have already been allocated. This explains the emergence of cognitive radio (CR) – the sharing of the spectrum between a primary user and a secondary user. In this book, we will present the state of the art of the different techniques for spectrum access using cooperation and competition to solve the problem of spectrum allocation and ensure better management of radio resources in a radio cognitive context. The different aspects of research explored up until now on the applications of multi-agent systems (MAS) in the field of cognitive radio are analyzed in this book. The first chapter begins with an insight into wireless networks and mobiles, with special focus on the IEEE 802.22 norm, which is a norm dedicated to CR. Chapter 2 goes into detail about CR, which is a technical field at the boundary between telecommunications and Artificial Intelligence (AI). In Chapter 3, the concept of the “agent” from AI is expanded to MAS and associated applications. Finally, Chapter 4 establishes an overview of the use of AI techniques, in particular MAS, for its allocation of radio resources and dynamic access to the spectrum in CR. Contents 1. Wireless and Mobile Networks. 2. Cognitive Radio. 3. Multi-agent Systems. 4. Dynamic Spectrum Access.

As wireless services rapidly expand, the inefficient use of limited spectrum resources poses a critical challenge. The conventional approach to spectrum allocation, based on fixed assignments, could be more effective in meeting the escalating demand for wireless devices and systems. Cognitive radio technology offers a transformative solution by reimagining the spectrum as a multidimensional space, enabling opportunistic access to underutilized bands. However, the field of cognitive radio is still in its early stages, needing more in-depth analyses and descriptions of crucial processes. Spectrum and Power Allocation in Cognitive Radio Systems addresses this pressing need by offering a comprehensive guide for academic scholars, researchers, and industry professionals. This book delves into cognitive radio technology's foundations, organization, and challenges, providing insights into dynamic spectrum access, networking protocols, hardware architecture, and emerging applications. It presents advanced topics such as spectrum sensing algorithms, cooperative spectrum sensing, and multi-user access, offering practical solutions to enhance spectrum efficiency.

This dissertation addresses two important issues in cooperative cognitive radio networks: spectrum sensing in physical layer and dynamic resource allocation in MAC layer. The goal of spectrum sensing is to find the vacant spectrum bands opportunistically and have them accumulated in a spectrum pool. In the MAC layer the detected bands are allocated to the Secondary Users (SUs) dynamically to take the best advantage of the temporarily granted resources.
