Abstract

Spectrum handoff is the process of exchanging progressing data transmission from the current channel to another idle channel. The essential goal of spectrum handoff in CR(Cognitive Radio) networks is to perform consistent data transmission while sustaining performance of ongoing transmission of secondary users. This handoff procedure can cause additional latency that eventually affects on the performance of CR transmission. Channel prediction method is expected to avoid the disruption to primary users and to reduce the handoff latency. In this paper, adaptive channel prediction is proposed to cope with time-varying channel and an adaptive channel prediction based proactive handoff procedure is designed to enhance data transmission performance.
