Abstract

It is important that using of efficient radio resource because of deficiency spectrum problem, so that related to this problem many researches are have proceeded. To solve this problem, Cognitive Radio(CR) was suggested. The channels are allocated to the secondary users when the primary users don't use the channels, and unfairness of secondary users can be serious problem and channel quality of multichannel can be different due to the different traffic pattern of primary users. In this paper, we propose MAC prtocol both of the user's fairness and channel quality in CR networks. Simulation results show the comparison with CR MAC protocols.

스펙트럼의 자원의 부족으로 인하여 자원을 효율적으로 사용하는 기술이 중요한 기술이 되었고, 이에 따른 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 스펙트럼 자원을 효율적으로 사용하기 위한 방법으로 인지무선통신이 제안되었으며 부 사용자들은 주 사용자가 채널을 점유하지 않을 때 채널을 할당받게 된다. 따라서 인지무선 네트워크에서 부 사용자들간의 불공평성 문제가 발생할 수 있으며 멀티채널에서 각 채널들은 주 사용자의 트래픽 패턴에서 따라 서로 다른 채널 품질을 갖게 된다. 본 논문에서는 부 사용자간의 공평성을 보장하면서도 가용한 스펙트럼 자원의 채널 품질을 고려한 MAC 프로토콜을 제안하고 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안된 MAC 프로토콜의 성능을 비교 분석하였다.
