Abstract
In this paper, we study the utility fairness resource allocation in a multi-user orthogonal-based cognitive radio network with cochannel interference (CCI) mitigation. In our proposed system model, we introduce the correct reception probability (CRP) model as a network utility metric. Furthermore, useful bounds on CRP are derived to analyze the performance of proposed allocation schemes. The optimal resource allocation is formulated as a worst-case user CRP maximum problem with both average CCI and average power budget constraints. However, this problem is non-convex and generally challenging to solve. Therefore, we solve this problem by successively performing subchannel allocation and power allocation. Firstly, a $k$ -means clustering inspired subchannel allocation strategy is proposed to divide secondary users (SUs) into multiple groups by minimizing the average mutual-signal-to-interference-ratio degree between any two SUs. The concept of reference user is employed to guarantee the quality of service of the primary user. In each subchannel, we formulate a max-min utility optimal power allocation problem. The non-linear Perron Frobenius theory is applied to solve this power allocation problem. Simulation results show that the proposed resource allocation scheme is fair and has relatively fast convergence.
