Based on the OIC rate control method,an optimal power control strategy for multichannel cognitive wireless networks is proposed. The algorithm aims to maximize the total transmit rate of cognitive user through appropriately controlling the transmit power of each subchannel under the constraint that the interference temperature at the primary receiver is below a certain threshold. Three suboptimal power control methods,namely Equal Power Transmission(EPT) ,Equal Rate Transmission(ERT) and Equal Interference Transmission(EIT) ,are also proposed. The performances of the proposed power control methods are compared through numerical simulations.展开更多

The problem is modeled as a constrained optimization problem to maximize the total throughput of the secondary users（ SUs）. The mapping between the throughput scheduling problems and the immune algorithm is given. Suitable immune operators are designed such as binary antibody encoding, antibody initialization based on pre-knowledge, a proportional clone to its affinity and an adaptive mutation operator associated with the evolutionary generation. The simulation results showthat the proposed algorithm can obtain about 95% of the optimal throughput and operate with much lower liner computational complexity.展开更多

Numerous researches have been performed on it with different scenarios. However,these approaches have either high computational complexity or relatively poor performance. Delay scheduling is a constraint optimization problem with non-deterministic polynomial（ NP） hard feathers. In this paper,we proposed an immune algorithm-based suboptimal method to solve the problem. Suitable immune operators have been designed such as encoding,clone,mutation and selection. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm yields near-optimal performance and operates with much lower computational complexity.展开更多

This paper considers a spectrum underlay cognitive radio network, in which the cognitive users （CUs） are allowed to use the radio spectrum concurrently with the primary users （PUs） under the interference temperature constraint. We investigate the system performance by using the proposed joint channel and power allocation scheme under two transmit strategies to achieve higher data rates and performance diversity gain respectively. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme provides a significant improvement on the bit error rate （BER） performance and spectrum efficiency of a cognitive wireless network.展开更多

This paper aims to design a scheme for the concurrent use of licensed frequencies by Underlay Cognitive Users （UCUs）. We develop a new receiver-initiated Medium Access Control （MAC） protocol to facilitate the selections of alternative reliable carrier frequencies. A circuit is designed to establish reliable carrier selections based on the Received Signal Strength Indicator （RSSI） at the receiving end. Based on both packet-level simulations and various performance parameters, a comparison is carried out among conventional techniques, including the Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance （MACA） and MACA by invitation（MACA-BI） techniques, and our scheme. The simulated results demonstrate that when conventional techniques are used, the system overhead time increases from 0.5 s on the first attempt to 16.5 s on the sixth attempt. In the proposed scheme under the same failure condition, overhead time varies from 0.5 s to 2 s. This improvement is due to the complete elimination of the exponential waiting time that occurs during failed transmissions. An average efficiency of 60% is achieved with our scheme while only 43% and 34% average efficiencies are achieved with the MACA and MACA-BI techniques, respectively. The throughput performance of our scheme on the fourth attempt is 7 Mbps, whereas for the MACA and MACA-BI protocols, it is 1.9 Mbps and 2.2 Mbps respectively.展开更多

In the fast Fourier transform （FFT） spectrum of the MZI transmission spectrum, several frequency components are generally observed, which means that the transmission spectrum of the MZI is formed by the superposition of some dual-mode interference （DMI） spectra, and each frequency component represents different core-cladding interferences. We can select some dominant frequency components in the FFT spectrum of the MZI transmission spectrum to take the inverse FFT （IFFT）. Then, the corresponding DMI patterns can be obtained. Due to the shift of the wavelength of these DMI spectra with changes in the environmental parameters, we can use the coefficient matrix of these DMI spectra for multi-parameter sensing. In this Letter, two DMI patterns are separated from the resultant transmission spectrum of the MZI. As the RI and temperature change, the shifts of the two DMI patterns with respect to the RI and temperature will be observed. The sensitivities of the RI and temperature are -137.1806 nm/RIU （RI unit） and 0.0860 nm/℃, and -22.9955 nm/RIU and 0.0610 nm/℃ for the two DMIs. Accordingly, it can be used to simultaneously measure RI and temperature changes. The approach can eliminate the influence of multiple interferences and improve the accuracy of the sensor.展开更多
