Abstract
One critical issue in dynamic spectrum access of cognitive radio networks is the analysis of interference caused by Secondary Users (SUs). Most of the current works focus on mitigating the aggregated interference effects of SUs at Primary Users (PUs) in the physical layer. However, the interference is also dynamically related to the communication behaviors between PUs and SUs. In this paper, we analyze the interference caused by SUs in the MAC layer by taking into account the dynamic behaviors between PUs and SUs. Based on the ON-OFF primary channel state model, we derive the close-form expressions for the probability of interference caused by SUs and quantify the interference effect in two scenarios: slotted secondary network and non-slotted secondary network. We also discuss how to control SUs' access behavior such that the normal communication of PUs can be guaranteed. Finally, simulation results are shown to verify the effectiveness of our analysis.
