Abstract

We study the energy-efficient power allocation techniques for OFDM-based cognitive radio (CR) networks, where a CR transmitter is communicating with CR receivers on a channel borrowed from licensed primary users (PUs). Due to non-orthogonality of the transmitted signals in the adjacent bands, both the PU and the cognitive secondary user (SU) cause mutual-interference. We assume that the statistical channel state information between the cognitive transmitter and the primary receiver is known. The secondary transmitter maintains a specified statistical mutual-interference limits for all the PUs communicating in the adjacent channels. Our goal is to allocate subcarrier power for the SU so that the energy efficiency metric is optimized as well as the mutual-interference on all the active PU bands are below specified bounds. We show that the green power loading problem is a fractional programming problem. We use Charnes-Cooper transformation technique to obtain an equivalent concave optimization problem for what the solution can be readily obtained. We also propose iterative Dinkelbach method using parametric objective function for the fractional program. Numerical results are given to show the effect of different interference parameters, rate and power thresholds, and number of PUs.

Highlights

  • The demand for ubiquitous wireless broadband data access and multimedia services is constantly growing in the crowded consumer radio bands while wider spectral ranges of already licensed frequency bands are barely used

  • The channel access probability is defined as the average number of samples for which a feasible region and an optimal solution exists for the problem

  • We studied energy-efficient downlink power allocation techniques for Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)-based green cognitive radio systems

Summary

Introduction

The demand for ubiquitous wireless broadband data access and multimedia services is constantly growing in the crowded consumer radio bands while wider spectral ranges of already licensed frequency bands are barely used. Our goal is to greenwise design a cognitive radio (CR) system that optimizes energy efficiency under probabilistic interference quality of service (QoS) constraints for primary users (PUs), and throughput and power QoS constraints for secondary users (SUs). Distributed subcarrier and power allocation technique for the maximization of throughput subject to constraints on the interference and power is studied in [11] for ad hoc cognitive radio networks. The authors in [15] studied two-dimensional mapping of incoming requests for wireless OFDMA systems, where a base station (BS) is transmitting to a group of subscriber station (SS) using a broadcast channel in downlink They presented run-time efficient heuristic solutions for the problem, where the objective function is the spatial efficiency. We propose an energy-efficiency maximization framework in a cognitive radio scenario, where the transmitter judiciously allocates total power over multiple subcarriers.
