Abstract

In this paper, we propose first a scheme of grouping spectrum holes that are created in the multiple channels of primary users, and then by using the scheme we enhance quality of service (QoS) of wideband cognitive radio users in cellular cognitive radio networks. In our scheme, spectrum holes created in each primary channel are predicted by Wiener prediction process, and then the predicted spectrum holes happened in the same time are grouped into a group. The wideband cognitive radio users explore the group of spectrum holes to improve their QoS. Simulation results show that their handoff calls dropping rate and initial calls blocking rate are significantly reduced in our scheme, compared to those in the single primary channel.

본 논문에서는 셀룰러 인지 라디오 망에서 주 사용자들 (PU; primary user)의 다중 채널상에서 발생하는 스펙트럼 홀 (spectrum hole)을 그룹핑(grouping)하여, 광대역 인지 사용자 (WCRU; wideband cognitive radio user)의 서비스 품질 (QoS; quality of service)을 향상시킬 수 있는 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 스펙트럼 홀 그룹핑 방법은 같은 시간에 발생하는 스펙트럼 홀들을 위너예측과정으로 예측하고, 예측된 스펙트럼 홀을 그룹핑하여 광대역 인지 사용자를 지원함으로써 인지 사용자의 서비스 품질을 향상시킨다. 시뮬레이션을 통하여 단일 스펙트럼 홀 채널을 이용한 경우와 비교하여 핸드오프 호의 손실률과 초기 발생 호의 차단률을 줄일 수 있음을 보인다.
