Abstract

To solve the shortage of radio spectrum and utilize spectrum resource more efficiently, cognitive radio technologies are proposed, and many studies on cognitive radio have been conducted. Multi-hop routing is one of the important technologies to enable the nodes to transmit data further with lower power in ad-hoc cognitive radio networks. In a multi-channel cognitive radio networks, each channel should be allocated to minimize interference to primary users. In the multi-hop routing, channel allocation should consider the inter-channel interference to maximize network throughput. In this paper, we propose multi-channel scheduling scheme which minimizes inter-channel interferences and avoids collision with primary users for the multi-hop multi-channel cognitive radio networks. The proposed scheduling is designed to determine both of routing path and channel selection. The performance of proposed channel allocation scheme is evaluated by the computer simulation in the aspect of capacity and collision rate.

스펙트럼 자원의 부족문제를 해결하고 스펙트럼 자원을 보다 효율적으로 사용하기 위해 인지무선통신기술이 제안되었으며 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 애드혹 인지무선통신에서 멀티 홉 라우팅은 저 전력으로 먼 거리까지 데이터 전송할 수 있는 중요한 기법이다. 멀티채널을 갖는 멀티홉 라우팅에서 전송채널을 선택할 때 우선적으로는 주 사용자에 대한 간섭을 최소화할 수 있는 채널선택이 되어야하며 전송용량을 극대화하기 위해 채널 간 간섭을 최소화할 수 있는 채널선택기법이 필요로 된다. 본 논문에서는 멀티채널 멀티 홉 인지무선네트워크에서에서 채널 간 간섭을 최소화하며 주 사용자와의 충돌을 줄임으로써 용량을 높일 수 있는 채널 스케줄링 방식을 제안하였다. 제안된 방식은 라우팅경로와 채널선택을 동시에 수행한다. 제안된 채널 할당방식에 대한 시뮬레이션을 통해 용량과 충돌률 관점에서 그 성능을 분석하였다.
