This document summarizes research on addressing the issue of primary user mobility in cognitive radio networks. It discusses how primary user mobility can impact spectrum sensing, channel availability, and the overall cognitive radio cycle. It analyzes two scenarios - partial mobility where only the primary user is mobile, and global mobility where both primary and secondary users are mobile. For partial mobility, it describes how primary user motion can reduce sensing accuracy and affect the optimal sensing time. It also discusses how mobility changes channel availability over time as the distances between users vary. The document concludes that accounting for primary user mobility poses new challenges for cognitive radio that require adapting or developing new techniques beyond existing static user approaches.
Bio-inspired route estimation in cognitive radio networks IJECEIAES
Cognitive radio is a technique that was originally created for the proper use of the radio electric spectrum due its underuse. A few methods were used to predict the network traffic to determine the occupancy of the spectrum and then use the ‘holes’ between the transmissions of primary users. The goal is to guarantee a complete transmission for the second user while not interrupting the trans-mission of primary users. This study seeks the multifractal generation of traffic for a specific radio electric spectrum as well as a bio-inspired route estimation for secondary users. It uses the MFHW algorithm to generate multifractal traces and two bio-inspired algo-rithms: Ant Colony Optimization and Max Feeding to calculate the secondary user’s path. Multifractal characteristics offer a predic-tion, which is 10% lower in comparison with the original traffic values and a complete transmission for secondary users. In fact, a hybrid strategy combining both bio-inspired algorithms promise a reduction in handoff. The purpose of this research consists on deriving future investigation in the generation of multifractal traffic and a mobility spectrum using bio-inspired algorithms.

Wideband Sensing for Cognitive Radio Systems in Heterogeneous Next Generation...CSCJournals
Mobile Next Generation Network (MNGN) is characterized as heterogeneous network where variety of access technologies are meant to coexist. Decisions on choosing an air interface that meets a particular need at a particular time will be shifted from the network’s side to (a more intelligent) user’s side. On top of that network operators and regularities have come to the realization that assigned spectrum bands are not utilized as they should be. Cognitive radio stands out as a candidate technology to address many emerging issues in MNGN such as capacity, quality of service and spectral efficiency. As a transmission strategy, cognitive radio systems depend greatly on sensing the radio environment. In this paper, we present a novel approach for interference characterization in cognitive radio networks based on wideband chirp signal. The results presented show that improved sensing accuracy is maintained at tolerable system complexity.
A STUDY ON QUANTITATIVE PARAMETERS OF SPECTRUM HANDOFF IN COGNITIVE RADIO NET...ijwmn
The innovation of wireless technologies requires dynamic allocation of spectrum band in an efficient
manner. This has been achieved by Cognitive Radio (CR) networks which allow unlicensed users to make
use of free licensed spectrum, when the licensed users are kept away from that spectrum. The cognitive
radio makes decision, switching from primary user to secondary user and vice-versa, based on its built-in
interference engine. It allows secondary users to makes use of a channel based on its availability i.e. on the
absence of the primary user and they should vacate the channel once the primary user re-enters and
continue their communication on another available channel and this process in the cognitive radio is
known as spectrum mobility. The main objective of spectrum mobility is that, there is no interruption
caused due to the channel occupied by secondary users and maintains a good quality of service. In order to
achieve better spectrum mobility, it is mandatory to choose an effective spectrum handoff strategy with the
capability of predicting spectrum mobility. The handoff strategy with its parameters and its impact is an
important concept in spectrum mobility but fairly explored. In this paper an empirical study on quantitative
parameters involved in spectrum mobility prediction are discussed in detail. These parameters are studied
extensively because they play a vital role in the spectrum handoff process moreover the impact of these
parameters in various handoff methods can be used to predict the effectiveness of the system.

The increasing demand of wireless applications has put a lot of limitations on the use of available
radio spectrum is limited and precious resource. Many survey of spectrum utilization shows that entire
spectrum is not used at all the times, so many of the radio spectrum is underutilized. Some of the frequency

radio is a technique where secondary user looks for a free band to use when primary user is not in use of

A basic problem facing the future in wireless systems is where to find suitable spectrum bands to fulfill the

and improve the spectrum utilization, cognitive radio concept has been evolved. Wireless communication,
in which a transmitter and receiver can detect intelligently communication channels that are in use and
those which are not in use are known as Cognitive Radio, and it can move to unused channels. This makes

must have the capability to learn and adapt their wireless transmission according to the surrounding radio
environment. The application of Artificial Intelligence approaches in the Cognitive Radio is very promising
since they have a great importance for the implementation of Cognitive Radio networks architecture.
Dynamic spectrum access is a promising approach to make less severe the spectrum scarcity that wireless
communications face now. It aims at reusing sparsely occupied frequency bands and does not interfere to
the actual licensees. This paper is a review and comparison of different DSA models and methods.

Spectrum scarcity is an emerging issue in wireless communication systems due to the increasing
demand of broadband services like mobile communications, wireless internet access, IoT applications,
among others. The migration of analog TV to digital systems (a.k.a. digital TV switchover) has led to
the release of a significant spectrum share that can be used to support said additional services. Likewise,
TV white spaces emerge as spectral opportunities that can also be explored. Hence, cognitive radio (CR)
presents itself as a feasible approach to efficiently use resources and exploit gaps within the spectrum.
The goal of this paper is to unveil the state of the art revolving around the usage of TV white spaces,
including some of the most important methods developed to exploit such spaces, upcoming opportunities,
challenges for future research projects, and suggestions to improve current models.
This document reviews the Security and QoS Aware Dynamic Clustering (SQADC) Routing protocol for cognitive radio networks (CRNs). It first discusses existing routing protocols for CRNs and identifies gaps, including that most focus on improving quality of service but few address security issues. It then outlines the objectives of designing a new routing protocol to achieve a tradeoff between QoS performance and security performance for CRNs. The proposed SQADC protocol will use dynamic clustering based on ant colony optimization for cluster head selection and re-clustering to optimize spectrum allocation and quality of service while introducing a lightweight trust-based mechanism for detecting malicious nodes.
A Mathematical Approach for Hidden Node Problem in Cognitive Radio NetworksTELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
Cognitive radio (CR) technology has emerged as a realistic solution to the spectrum scarcity
problem in present day wireless networks. A major challenge in CR radio networks is the hidden node
problem, which is the inability of the CR nodes to detect the primary user. This paper proposes energy
detector-based distributed sequential cooperative spectrum sensing over Nakagami-m fading, as a tool to
solve the hidden node problem. The derivation of energy detection performance over Nakagami-m fading
channel is presented. Since the observation represents a random variable, likelihood ratio test (LRT) is
known to be optimal in this type of detection problem. The LRT is implemented using the Neyman-Pearson
Criterion (maximizing the probability of detection but at a constraint of false alarm probability). The
performance of the proposed method has been evaluated both by numerical analysis and simulations. The
effect of cooperation among a group of CR nodes and system parameters such as SNR, detection
threshold and number of samples per CR nodes is investigated. Results show improved detection
performance by implementing the proposed model.
Implementation of Vacate on Demand Algorithm in Various Spectrum Sensing Netw...IJERA Editor
In present days the wireless communications are widely increases because of this reason spectrum utilization can be rapidly increased.For efficient usage of spectrum we can implement the Vacate on demand algorithm in different networks. CR users also need to sense the spectrum and vacate the channel upon the detection of the PU‟s presence to protectPUs from harmful interference. To achieve these fundamental CR functions, CR users usually coordinate with each other by using a common medium for control message exchange ensuring a priority of PUs over CR users. This paper presents the Vacate on Demand (VD) algorithm which enables dynamic spectrum access and ensures to vacate the assigned channel in case of PU activity and move the CR user to some other vacant channel to make spectrum available to PUs as well as to CR users. The basic idea is to use a ranking table of the available channels based on the PU activity detected on each channel. To improve the spectrum efficiency we can implement the Vacate on demand algorithm in MANET Network.
Cognitive Radio: An Emerging trend for better Spectrum UtilizationEditor IJCATR
Due to the rapid development of wireless communications in recent years, the demand on wireless spectrum has been growing dramatically, resulting in the spectrum scarcity problem. Works have shown that the fixed spectrum allocation policy commonly adopted today suffer from the low spectrum utilization problem. Both academic and regulatory bodies have focused on dynamic spectrum access to fully utilize the scarce spectrum resource. Cognitive radio, with the capability to flexibly adapt its parameters, has been proposed as the enabling technology for unlicensed secondary users to dynamically access the licensed spectrum owned by legacy primary users on a negotiated or an opportunistic basis. In this paper we present a volumetric survey on various methods used to adapt changes used in cognitive radio.

Cognitive radio networks provide highly reliable communications and efficient spectrum utilization.
A review paper based on spectrum sensing techniques in cognitive radio networksAlexander Decker
This document summarizes different spectrum sensing techniques for cognitive radio networks. It discusses cooperative detection techniques which involve multiple cognitive radios sharing sensing information, and non-cooperative detection where radios act independently. Specific techniques covered include centralized, distributed, and relay-assisted cooperative sensing as well as blind sensing, energy detection, and eigenvalue-based sensing. The document concludes that cooperative sensing performs better than non-cooperative sensing, especially for low signal-to-noise ratio primary user signals.
AN ENERGY EFFICIENT DISTRIBUTED PROTOCOL FOR ENSURING COVERAGE AND CONNECTIVI...ijasuc
As wireless sensor networks (WSNs) continue to attract more and more researchers attention, new ideas for
applications are continually being developed, many of which involve consistent coverage with good
network connectivity of a given area of interest. For the successful operation of the wireless Sensor
Network, the active sensor nodes must maintain both coverage and also connectivity. These are two closely
related essential prerequisites and they are also very important measurements of quality of service (QoS)
for wireless sensor networks. This paper presents the design and analysis of novel protocols that can
dynamically configure a sensor network to result in guaranteed degrees of coverage and connectivity. This
protocol is simulated using NS2 simulated and compared against a distributed probabilistic coveragepreserving configuration protocol (DPCCP) with SPAN [1] protocol in the literature and show that it
activates lesser number of sensor nodes, consumes much lesser energy and maximises the network lifetime
significantly.

IMPROVEMENTS FOR UPLINK LONG TERM EVOLUTION (UL-LTE) IN HETEROGENEOUS NETWORK...IJCNCJournal
Several interference mitigation strategies can be used in LTE networks to meet the consumers' increasing
need for faster data speeds. Dynamic Spectrum Allocation (DSA), which maintains spectrum in a
converged radio system and distributes it across all participating radio terminals, is one of the most
promising solutions. However, the fundamental obstacle to achieving increased network capacities is
increased inter-cell interference. The aim of this paper is to analyse the effectiveness of a newly proposed
DSA technique by comparing its bit error rate (BER) and throughput (TP) with a typical uplink LTE
configuration. To maximise throughput in a heterogeneous network, the suggested DSA technique utilises
the Nash Bargaining Solution (NBS) scheme, a cooperative game theory that could correlate with the bit
error rate. The software tool GNU Radio, which offers signal-processing blocks to develop softwaredefined radios and signal-processing systems, was used to create the setups. After the simulations were
performed, the BER values were recorded and compared, while the TP values were established and
computed appropriately. According to the results, the uplink (UL-LTE) architecture with DSA has an
improved TP and a lower BER value. As a result, spectral efficiency can also be improved.

COGNITIVE RADIO RESOURCE SCHEDULING USING MULTI-AGENT Q-LEARNING FOR LTEIJCNCJournal
In this paper, we propose, implement, and test two novel downlink LTE scheduling algorithms. The
implementation and testing of these algorithms were in Matlab, and they are based on the use of
Reinforcement Learning (RL), more specifically, the Q-learning technique for scheduling two types of
users. The first algorithm is called a Collaborative scheduling algorithm, and the second algorithm is
called a Competitive scheduling algorithm. The first type of the scheduled users is the Primary Users
(PUs), and they are the licensed subscribers that pay for their service. The second type of the scheduled
users is the Secondary Users (SUs), and they could be un-licensed subscribers that don't pay for their
service, device-to-device communications, or sensors. Each user whether it’s a primary or secondary is
considered as an agent. In the Collaborative scheduling algorithm, the primary user agents will
collaborate in order to make a joint scheduling decision about allocating the resource blocks to each one
of them, then the secondary user agents will compete among themselves to use the remaining resource
blocks. In the Competitive scheduling algorithm, the primary user agents will compete among themselves
over the available resources, then the secondary user agents will compete among themselves over the
remaining resources. Experimental results show that both scheduling algorithms converged to almost 90%
utilization of the spectrum, and provided fair shares of the spectrum among users.

SPECTRUM SENSING IN COGNITIVE RADIO NETWORKS: QOS CONSIDERATIONS cscpconf
The rapidly growing number of wireless communication devices has led to massive increases in radio traffic density, resulting in a noticeable shortage of available spectrum. To address this shortage, the Cognitive Radio (CR) technology offers promising solutions that aim to improve the spectrum utilization. The operation of CR relies on detecting the so-called spectrum holes, the frequency bands that remain unoccupied by their licensed operators. The unlicensed users are then allowed to communicate using these spectrum holes. As such, the performance of CR is highly dependent on the employed spectrum sensing methods. Several sensing methods are already available. However, no individual method can accommodate all potential CR operation scenarios. Hence, it is fair to ascertain that the performance of a CR device can be improved if it is capable of supporting several sensing methods. It should obviously also be able to select the most suitable method. In this paper, several spectrum sensing methods are compared and analyzed, aiming to identify their advantages and shortcomings in different CR operating conditions. Furthermore, it identifies the features that need to be considered while selecting a suitable sensing method from the catalog of available methods.
Spectrum Sensing in Cognitive Radio Networks : QoS Considerations csandit
This document discusses spectrum sensing methods in cognitive radio networks and their impact on quality of service (QoS). It analyzes several spectrum sensing methods including energy detection, covariance-based detection, cyclostationarity feature detection, correlation detection, radio identification based sensing, and matched filtering. These methods are categorized as requiring no prior information, requiring prior information, or being based on cooperation between secondary users. The document notes that imperfect spectrum sensing can degrade QoS for both primary and secondary users. It also discusses how increasing sensing time and frequency improves detection of primary users but reduces data transmission time and degrades QoS for secondary users.

A SURVEY ON DYNAMIC SPECTRUM ACCESS TECHNIQUES IN COGNITIVE RADIOijngnjournal
Wireless networks are characterized by fixed spectrum policy. With increasing demands for wireless communication efficiently using the spectrum resources has become an essential issue. Cognitive radio is a form of wireless communication which is used to sense the spectrum and find the free spectrum. It is used by unlicensed users without causing interference to the licensed user. Cognitive radio with the dynamic spectrum access is key technology which provides the best solution by allowing a group of Secondary users to share the radio spectrum originally allocated to the primary users. Dynamically accessing the unused spectrum is known as dynamic spectrum access (DSA) which becomes a promising approach to increase
the efficiency of spectrum usage. In this paper, DSA models are discussed along with different methods such as game theory based method, a measurement-based model, network coded cognitive control channel, Markovian Queuing model, the Delay performance of threshold policies, fuzzy logic based method and spatio-temporal spectrum management model.

A Cognitive Radio And Dynamic Spectrum Access – A Studyjosephjonse
A basic problem facing the future in wireless systems is where to find suitable spectrum bands to fulfill the demand of future services. While all of the radio spectrum is allocated to different services, applications and users, observation show that usage of the spectrum is actually quite low. To overcome this problem and improve the spectrum utilization, cognitive radio concept has been evolved. Wireless communication, in which a transmitter and receiver can detect intelligently communication channels that are in use and those which are not in use are known as Cognitive Radio, and it can move to unused channels. This makes possible the use of available radio frequency spectrum while minimizing interference with other users. CRs must have the capability to learn and adapt their wireless transmission according to the surrounding radio environment. The application of Artificial Intelligence approaches in the Cognitive Radio is very promising since they have a great importance for the implementation of Cognitive Radio networks architecture. Dynamic spectrum access is a promising approach to make less severe the spectrum scarcity that wireless communications face now. It aims at reusing sparsely occupied frequency bands and does not interfere to the actual licensees. This paper is a review and comparison of different DSA models and methods.
Spectrum scarcity is an emerging issue in wireless communication systems due to the increasing
demand of broadband services like mobile communications, wireless internet access, IoT applications,
among others. The migration of analog TV to digital systems (a.k.a. digital TV switchover) has led to
the release of a significant spectrum share that can be used to support said additional services. Likewise,
TV white spaces emerge as spectral opportunities that can also be explored. Hence, cognitive radio (CR)
presents itself as a feasible approach to efficiently use resources and exploit gaps within the spectrum.
The goal of this paper is to unveil the state of the art revolving around the usage of TV white spaces,
including some of the most important methods developed to exploit such spaces, upcoming opportunities,
challenges for future research projects, and suggestions to improve current models.
This document reviews the Security and QoS Aware Dynamic Clustering (SQADC) Routing protocol for cognitive radio networks (CRNs). It first discusses existing routing protocols for CRNs and identifies gaps, including that most focus on improving quality of service but few address security issues. It then outlines the objectives of designing a new routing protocol to achieve a tradeoff between QoS performance and security performance for CRNs. The proposed SQADC protocol will use dynamic clustering based on ant colony optimization for cluster head selection and re-clustering to optimize spectrum allocation and quality of service while introducing a lightweight trust-based mechanism for detecting malicious nodes.
A Mathematical Approach for Hidden Node Problem in Cognitive Radio NetworksTELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
Cognitive radio (CR) technology has emerged as a realistic solution to the spectrum scarcity
problem in present day wireless networks. A major challenge in CR radio networks is the hidden node
problem, which is the inability of the CR nodes to detect the primary user. This paper proposes energy
detector-based distributed sequential cooperative spectrum sensing over Nakagami-m fading, as a tool to
solve the hidden node problem. The derivation of energy detection performance over Nakagami-m fading
channel is presented. Since the observation represents a random variable, likelihood ratio test (LRT) is
known to be optimal in this type of detection problem. The LRT is implemented using the Neyman-Pearson
Criterion (maximizing the probability of detection but at a constraint of false alarm probability). The
performance of the proposed method has been evaluated both by numerical analysis and simulations. The
effect of cooperation among a group of CR nodes and system parameters such as SNR, detection
threshold and number of samples per CR nodes is investigated. Results show improved detection
performance by implementing the proposed model.
Implementation of Vacate on Demand Algorithm in Various Spectrum Sensing Netw...IJERA Editor
In present days the wireless communications are widely increases because of this reason spectrum utilization can be rapidly increased.For efficient usage of spectrum we can implement the Vacate on demand algorithm in different networks. CR users also need to sense the spectrum and vacate the channel upon the detection of the PU‟s presence to protectPUs from harmful interference. To achieve these fundamental CR functions, CR users usually coordinate with each other by using a common medium for control message exchange ensuring a priority of PUs over CR users. This paper presents the Vacate on Demand (VD) algorithm which enables dynamic spectrum access and ensures to vacate the assigned channel in case of PU activity and move the CR user to some other vacant channel to make spectrum available to PUs as well as to CR users. The basic idea is to use a ranking table of the available channels based on the PU activity detected on each channel. To improve the spectrum efficiency we can implement the Vacate on demand algorithm in MANET Network.
Cognitive Radio: An Emerging trend for better Spectrum UtilizationEditor IJCATR
Due to the rapid development of wireless communications in recent years, the demand on wireless spectrum has been growing dramatically, resulting in the spectrum scarcity problem. Works have shown that the fixed spectrum allocation policy commonly adopted today suffer from the low spectrum utilization problem. Both academic and regulatory bodies have focused on dynamic spectrum access to fully utilize the scarce spectrum resource. Cognitive radio, with the capability to flexibly adapt its parameters, has been proposed as the enabling technology for unlicensed secondary users to dynamically access the licensed spectrum owned by legacy primary users on a negotiated or an opportunistic basis. In this paper we present a volumetric survey on various methods used to adapt changes used in cognitive radio.

This document discusses cognitive radio networks and their advantages over traditional and software defined radio networks. A cognitive radio network is able to sense available spectrum, then adapt its transmission or reception parameters to communicate without interfering with licensed users. It can learn from previous experiences to most efficiently utilize unused spectrum. The cognitive radio cycle involves spectrum sensing, allocation, reconfiguration, and transmission. Cognitive radio networks provide highly reliable communications and efficient spectrum utilization.
A review paper based on spectrum sensing techniques in cognitive radio networksAlexander Decker
This document summarizes different spectrum sensing techniques for cognitive radio networks. It discusses cooperative detection techniques which involve multiple cognitive radios sharing sensing information, and non-cooperative detection where radios act independently. Specific techniques covered include centralized, distributed, and relay-assisted cooperative sensing as well as blind sensing, energy detection, and eigenvalue-based sensing. The document concludes that cooperative sensing performs better than non-cooperative sensing, especially for low signal-to-noise ratio primary user signals.
AN ENERGY EFFICIENT DISTRIBUTED PROTOCOL FOR ENSURING COVERAGE AND CONNECTIVI...ijasuc
As wireless sensor networks (WSNs) continue to attract more and more researchers attention, new ideas for
applications are continually being developed, many of which involve consistent coverage with good
network connectivity of a given area of interest. For the successful operation of the wireless Sensor
Network, the active sensor nodes must maintain both coverage and also connectivity. These are two closely
related essential prerequisites and they are also very important measurements of quality of service (QoS)
for wireless sensor networks. This paper presents the design and analysis of novel protocols that can
dynamically configure a sensor network to result in guaranteed degrees of coverage and connectivity. This
protocol is simulated using NS2 simulated and compared against a distributed probabilistic coveragepreserving configuration protocol (DPCCP) with SPAN [1] protocol in the literature and show that it
activates lesser number of sensor nodes, consumes much lesser energy and maximises the network lifetime
significantly.

IMPROVEMENTS FOR UPLINK LONG TERM EVOLUTION (UL-LTE) IN HETEROGENEOUS NETWORK...IJCNCJournal
Several interference mitigation strategies can be used in LTE networks to meet the consumers' increasing
need for faster data speeds. Dynamic Spectrum Allocation (DSA), which maintains spectrum in a
converged radio system and distributes it across all participating radio terminals, is one of the most
promising solutions. However, the fundamental obstacle to achieving increased network capacities is
increased inter-cell interference. The aim of this paper is to analyse the effectiveness of a newly proposed
DSA technique by comparing its bit error rate (BER) and throughput (TP) with a typical uplink LTE
configuration. To maximise throughput in a heterogeneous network, the suggested DSA technique utilises
the Nash Bargaining Solution (NBS) scheme, a cooperative game theory that could correlate with the bit
error rate. The software tool GNU Radio, which offers signal-processing blocks to develop softwaredefined radios and signal-processing systems, was used to create the setups. After the simulations were
performed, the BER values were recorded and compared, while the TP values were established and
computed appropriately. According to the results, the uplink (UL-LTE) architecture with DSA has an
improved TP and a lower BER value. As a result, spectral efficiency can also be improved.

COGNITIVE RADIO RESOURCE SCHEDULING USING MULTI-AGENT Q-LEARNING FOR LTEIJCNCJournal
In this paper, we propose, implement, and test two novel downlink LTE scheduling algorithms. The
implementation and testing of these algorithms were in Matlab, and they are based on the use of
Reinforcement Learning (RL), more specifically, the Q-learning technique for scheduling two types of
users. The first algorithm is called a Collaborative scheduling algorithm, and the second algorithm is
called a Competitive scheduling algorithm. The first type of the scheduled users is the Primary Users
(PUs), and they are the licensed subscribers that pay for their service. The second type of the scheduled
users is the Secondary Users (SUs), and they could be un-licensed subscribers that don't pay for their
service, device-to-device communications, or sensors. Each user whether it’s a primary or secondary is
considered as an agent. In the Collaborative scheduling algorithm, the primary user agents will
collaborate in order to make a joint scheduling decision about allocating the resource blocks to each one
of them, then the secondary user agents will compete among themselves to use the remaining resource
blocks. In the Competitive scheduling algorithm, the primary user agents will compete among themselves
over the available resources, then the secondary user agents will compete among themselves over the
remaining resources. Experimental results show that both scheduling algorithms converged to almost 90%
utilization of the spectrum, and provided fair shares of the spectrum among users.

SPECTRUM SENSING IN COGNITIVE RADIO NETWORKS: QOS CONSIDERATIONS cscpconf
The rapidly growing number of wireless communication devices has led to massive increases in radio traffic density, resulting in a noticeable shortage of available spectrum. To address this shortage, the Cognitive Radio (CR) technology offers promising solutions that aim to improve the spectrum utilization. The operation of CR relies on detecting the so-called spectrum holes, the frequency bands that remain unoccupied by their licensed operators. The unlicensed users are then allowed to communicate using these spectrum holes. As such, the performance of CR is highly dependent on the employed spectrum sensing methods. Several sensing methods are already available. However, no individual method can accommodate all potential CR operation scenarios. Hence, it is fair to ascertain that the performance of a CR device can be improved if it is capable of supporting several sensing methods. It should obviously also be able to select the most suitable method. In this paper, several spectrum sensing methods are compared and analyzed, aiming to identify their advantages and shortcomings in different CR operating conditions. Furthermore, it identifies the features that need to be considered while selecting a suitable sensing method from the catalog of available methods.
Spectrum Sensing in Cognitive Radio Networks : QoS Considerations csandit
This document discusses spectrum sensing methods in cognitive radio networks and their impact on quality of service (QoS). It analyzes several spectrum sensing methods including energy detection, covariance-based detection, cyclostationarity feature detection, correlation detection, radio identification based sensing, and matched filtering. These methods are categorized as requiring no prior information, requiring prior information, or being based on cooperation between secondary users. The document notes that imperfect spectrum sensing can degrade QoS for both primary and secondary users. It also discusses how increasing sensing time and frequency improves detection of primary users but reduces data transmission time and degrades QoS for secondary users.

A SURVEY ON DYNAMIC SPECTRUM ACCESS TECHNIQUES IN COGNITIVE RADIOijngnjournal
Wireless networks are characterized by fixed spectrum policy. With increasing demands for wireless communication efficiently using the spectrum resources has become an essential issue. Cognitive radio is a form of wireless communication which is used to sense the spectrum and find the free spectrum. It is used by unlicensed users without causing interference to the licensed user. Cognitive radio with the dynamic spectrum access is key technology which provides the best solution by allowing a group of Secondary users to share the radio spectrum originally allocated to the primary users. Dynamically accessing the unused spectrum is known as dynamic spectrum access (DSA) which becomes a promising approach to increase
the efficiency of spectrum usage. In this paper, DSA models are discussed along with different methods such as game theory based method, a measurement-based model, network coded cognitive control channel, Markovian Queuing model, the Delay performance of threshold policies, fuzzy logic based method and spatio-temporal spectrum management model.

Global mobility and Handover management for heterogeneous network in vanetjosephjonse
Now a day’s Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (VANET) is an emerging technology. Mobility management is one of the most challenging research issues for VANETs to support variety of intelligent transportation system (ITS) applications. VANETs are getting importance for inter-vehicle communication, because they allow the communication among vehicles without any infrastructure, configuration effort, and without the high costs of cellular networks. Besides local data exchange, vehicular applications may be used to accessing Internet services. The access is provided by Internet gateways located on the site of roadside. However, the Internet integration requires a respective mobility support of the vehicular ad hoc network. In this paper we will study about the network mobility approach in vehicular ad hoc network; the model will describe the movement of vehicles from one network to other network.

Network Parameters Impact on Dynamic Transmission Power Control in Vehicular ...josephjonse
In vehicular ad hoc networks, the dynamic change in transmission power is very effective to increase the throughput of the wireless vehicular network and decrease the delay of the message communication between vehicular nodes on the highway. Whenever an event occurs on the highway, the reliability of the communication in the vehicular network becomes so vital so that event created messages should reach to all the moving network nodes. It becomes necessary that there should be no interference from outside of the network and all the neighbor nodes should lie in the transmission range of the reference vehicular node. Transmission range is directly proportional to the transmission power the moving node. If the transmission power will be high, the interference increases that can cause higher delay in message reception at receiver end, hence the performance of the network decreased. In this paper, it is analyzed that how transmission power can be controlled by considering other different parameter of the network such as; density, distance between moving nodes, different types of messages dissemination with their priority, selection of an antenna also affects on the transmission power. The dynamic control of transmission power in VANET serves also for the optimization of the resources where it needs, can be decreased and increased depending on the circumstances of the network. Different applications and events of different types also cause changes in transmission power to enhance the reachability. The analysis in this paper is comprised of density, distance with single hop and multi hop message broadcasting based dynamic transmission power control as well as antenna selection and applications based. Some summarized tables are produced according to the respective parameters of the vehicular network. At the end some valuable observations are made and discussed in detail. This paper concludes with a grand summary of all the protocols discussed in it.

Among these works, we find the modelling of the network ad hoc in the form of a graph. Thus the problem of stability of the network ad hoc which corresponds to a problem of allocation of frequency amounts to a problem of allocation of colors in the vertex of graph. we present use a parameter of coloring " the number of Grundy”. The Grundy number of a graph G, denoted by Γ(G), is the largest k such that G has a greedy k-coloring, that is a coloring with colours obtained by applying the greedy algorithm according to some ordering of the vertices of G. In this paper, we study the Grundy number of the lexicographic, Cartesian and direct products of two graphs in terms of the Grundy numbers of these graphs.

Cache Performance Analysis of Virtualized Router on Virtual Content-Centric N...josephjonse
Content-centric networking (CCN) is one of the major proposals for realizing information-centric networking. CCN routers cache forwarded data in a buffer memory called the ContentStore (CS). Virtual content-centric networking (VCCN), which enables the construction of multiple virtual networks (called VCCN slices) on a content-centric network, has been recently proposed. When multiple VCCN slices are constructed, the performance of each VCCN slice and that of the entire network are strongly affected by the CCN routers' CS allocation to VCCN router instances in VCCN slices. In this paper, we analyze the effects of CS allocation methods and content request patterns in VCCN slices on the performance of each VCCN slice and that of the entire network. Through several numerical examples, we show that when content request patterns are heterogeneous, a hybrid resource allocation method is effective in terms of both network fairness for VCCN slices and overall network performance.

ABSTRACT
The processing of primary user mobility with static or mobile secondary user in the context of cognitive
radio (CR) has recently been the subject of several studies and discussions all over the world. These
studies are seeking to broaden the horizons of CR implementation beyond the formalism described in the
diverse existing standards. The mobility of primary users is likely to reduce the overall performance of the
Cognitive Radio Network (CRN) and affects the different phases of the cognitive cycle. Said mobility alters
the network’s topology, the channel’s availability, and affects spectrum sensing. This makes any endeavor
aiming to implement CR technology complicated. This paper is devoted to the analysis and discussion of
the scientific literature that has addressed the issue of the primary user’s mobility.
KEYWORDS
Cognitive radio, Mobility of primary user, Mobility of secondary user, spectrum sensing, channel
availability.
1. INTRODUCTION
Cognitive radio is considered as a promising approach to solve the current spectrum scarcity and
spectrum underutilization problems. It is a fundamental technology enabling manageable,
efficient, flexible and reliable spectrum use by adjusting the radio's operating characteristics to
the real-time requirements of the ecosystem. The central idea of this new paradigm is that
inactive resources or spectrum opportunities can be used by unlicensed users (secondary user)
without affecting the performance of licensed users (primary user) [1]. Thus, the spectrum
resources will be allocated dynamically rather than statically. Indeed, significant limitations and
deficiencies were identified in the last approach thanks to several measurement campaigns which
revealed that the spectrum use varies between 15% and 85% [2]. In addition, they have shown
that the spectrum is exploited sporadically, meaning that frequency bands are used only in
particular locations and at particular times [3] as depicted in figure 1.

The principle of CR relies on understanding the temporal organization and the control states. It
follows a series of steps starting with the observation and the orientation of the environment,
followed by the creation of the plans and then finally the decision making. As illustrated in figure
2, the main functions of cognitive radio are: Spectrum sensing, sharing, decision, and mobility
[5].
Figure 2. Cognitive Radio Cycle [6]
The IEEE 802.22 Working Group (WG) launched as the first global move to promote a CR-based
air-interface (i.e., the PHY and MAC layer specifications) in November 2004 and the standard
was published in July 2011 as IEEE 802.22-2011TM. Said Standard is for Cognitive Wireless
Regional Area Networks (WRAN) to work in TV Bands [7]
The IEEE 802.22 standard is a CR standard aimed at providing less populated rural areas with
broadband access by using vacant television channels. Due to the fact that the levels of industrial
noise and ionosphere reflections remain relatively low, the antennas have reasonable dimensions
and the propagation characteristics are very good. Television broadcasting in the high VHF and
low UHF range are ideal for covering large rural areas with low population density [8]. While
the initial version of the standard does not enable mobility, the physical layer of the IEEE 802.22
standard can support mobility of up to 115 km per hour. Thus, the mobility of the secondary user
is supported by this standard, also the ECMA-392 standard support the mobility of secondary
users [9].
In this paper, we will not focus on the case where primary users (PUs) are fixed and secondary
users (SUs) are mobile because it has been widely discussed in the scientific literature in several
3. International Journal of Next-Generation Networks (IJNGN) Vol.12, No.1/2/3, September 2020

applications, e.g., CR-MANET in [10,11,12], CR-VANET in [13] or CR-based internet of
things [14].
Thus, in this case, the primary network occupies fixed locations and has a deterministic or
periodic temporal behavior, making easy the modeling of the cognition cycle for the secondary
network in the different phases.
However, the implementation of this technology has posed many challenges, calling into question
the effectiveness of the four modules of the cognition cycle: Sensing, spectrum sharing, decision
making, and spectrum mobility. Mentioning that they have entered into a bottleneck, new
methods are now needed to change this situation. As a result, in [15] the authors have proposed
for the first time in 2006 a spectrum prediction mechanism that could improve CR performance
as well as the spectrum use. This new mechanism gives the secondary network more intelligence.
Thus, its decisions in the sensing phase, decision, and spectrum mobility will be proactive rather
than reactive. But for sharing, long-term prediction and multidimensional prediction (time,
location and frequencies), several efforts must be made to raise the quality of these phases [16].
Traditional cognitive radio techniques mainly target the primary user and cognitive user in static.
For the past few years, the research on the mobility of the user has become a hot research topic,
the cognitive network is widely used in multimedia access technology, and the protocols of
multimedia access technology are mostly based on the allocation of time. Clearly, one of the
main drivers of this awareness is the measurement campaigns that have shown the existence of
spectrum opportunities even in cellular networks which stands out for its unrestrained mobility
[17]. In practice, the operators deploy network infrastructure to provide advanced service
regardless of location, even if the service lasts only a short period of the day. On one hand, these
regions (cells) do not reach their maximum use simultaneously and this makes the
implementation of CR in cellular networks a very active research topic. On the other hand, the
advent of the Internet of Things (IoT) and 5G has reinforced the consideration of primary user
mobility. The latter is one of the most significant elements of the wireless system that affects
many network characteristic such as network capacity, coverage, and connectivity. It is therefore
a fundamental component of any CR implementation in Wireless Next Generation.
Thus, the main objective of this paper is to analyze the case of primary user mobility while
highlighting the solutions found as well as the barriers related to this phenomenon. This study
distinguishes itself by the fact that it builds on previous work by analyzing an original angle of
CR, while the predecessors focused only on one specific technology.
In this paper, we will be concerned with two types of scenario. To facilitate understanding, we
appointed the first as "Partial-mobility" and the other as “Global-mobility".
Partial mobility means that only primary user is mobile, while Global mobility means that both
types of users are mobile.
In this way, our paper structure will have two main study cases: we will analyze in section 2 the
case of partial mobility; we will highlight the progress achieved and emphasize most of the
challenges faced by the scientific community. We will end this section by opening a discussion to
question the current finding in this scenario. Then in section 3, we will study the case of global
mobility, here we will show the low rate of contributions considering the mobility of both PUs
and SUs. We then discuss the current literature findings in order to push forward the analyses and
to dig into new research ideas, before finally drawing up a general conclusion in section 4. To the
best of our knowledge, this is the first time this topic will be discussed in a paper; the main
objective of this work is to highlight current thinking trends and future perspectives of their
application.

2. PARTIAL MOBILITY OF USERS
2.1. Impact of Primary user Mobility on Spectrum Sensing
Spectrum sensing is the key function in implementing cognitive radio, which enables secondary
users to identify and utilize vacant spectrum resource allocated to primary users. Traditional
techniques, e.g., matched filter (MF), detection energy detector (ED), cyclostationary feature
detection, may in practice have different advantages and requirements. Recent new sensing
schemes include covariance sensing, probabilistic property-based sensing wavelet analysis, and
compressive sensing. It is outstanding that they focus on typical non-mobile CR applications
(dynamic access of TV-bands). Nevertheless, none of such methods have taken into account the
dynamic position of PU into de sensing process. Lately, research has been made to improve the
accuracy and efficiency of these sensing techniques. However, when the PUs are mobile, new
problems arise for spectrum sensing despite these efforts.
A key concern in the design of spectrum sensing is the enhancement of the sensing time, i. e. the
sensing time that maximizes the transmission rate achievable by SUs, while limiting interference
against the PUs. In a mobile network scenario, this issue becomes more challenging than in the
traditional case (i.e. the stationary scenario), because in addition to the temporal activity of PU,
the spatial effects due to relative mobility between PU and SU must also be considered .In fact,
the mobility can profoundly influence the percentage of spectrum opportunities discovered ( the
spectrum holes that SU can exploit), and then mobility can also affect the transmission
throughput that the SU can achieve.
In[18] the authors have performed an optimization jointly in temporal and spatial domains to
account for the PU temporal activity as well as the mobility effects, namely by considering the
impact of sensing accuracy on the actual transmission throughput achievable by a SU. More
specifically, their theoretical analysis is carried out for an arbitrary network mobility model to
prove the existence of a single optimal sensing time that maximizes the mobility-aware sensing
Enabled Throughput achievable by a SU.
The mutual distances among the PU and CR users change dynamically with mobility. As result,
the capability of the CR users to sense the PU transmissions varies in time. As an example, Fig. 3
shows a CR user that is inside the protection range1 of a mobile PU at a certain time t. After the
PU movement, say at time t+Δ, the CR user is out of the PU protection range, thus becoming
unable to sense the possible PU transmissions.
Figure 3. The PU mobility changes the mutual distances between a PU and a CR user [19]

In [19] the authors have mentioned that the key issue to deal with the PU mobility consists on the
revision of the current design of the spectrum sensing functionality in presence of PU mobility.
The spectrum sensing functionality must be able to tune its time parameters, i.e., the sensing time
and the transmission time, according to the mobile PU dynamics. To this aim, in their paper, they
derived the optimal values for both the parameters in presence of PU mobility. More specifically,
regarding the transmission time, they derived an optimal closed-form expression, i.e., the
transmission time value that jointly maximizes the spectrum sensing efficiency and satisfies the
PU interference constraint.
In [20] firstly, the authors have compared the problem definition of spectrum sensing in static
scenario and in partial mobility scenario. Starting from the hypothesis the CR users are assumed
to be always in inside the PU protection range (PrR) in static scenario. Therefore, the local
sensing for PU signal detection is expressed as a binary hypothesis problem.
Then, they have reformulated the problem of spectrum sensing to fit with the PU mobility with
static SU. Finally, they studied the effects of PU with the aim of determining the parameters that
affect the spectrum sensing functionality. To that purpose, they introduced two performance
measures:
• Detection capability: measures the impact of PU mobility on the probability of detection;
• Mobility-enabled detection capability: a new proposed measure for the expected
transmission capability achievable by a SU in the presence of PU mobility.
They found that the detection capacity is affected by five parameters:
• The PU protection range;
• The size of the network;
• The PUs mobility model;
• The spatial distribution of SUs;
• The number of PUs using the same frequency band.
It is also shown in this paper, in the case of PU movement, that the sensing capacity can grow
significantly if the PU protection range is smaller than the size of the network area. The
uncertainty of spectrum mobility worsens the interference phenomenon. In this case, system
capacity analysis becomes a critical issue.
In [21] the authors have depicted to achieve two principals’ objectives namely:
• Determine the value of the capacity of the CR users in the network;
• Determine the optimal transmission time of each CR user.
At first, for general PU mobility model, closed-form expressions for the capacity of the CR users
and the optimal transmission time of each CR user are derived. Then, these expressions are
applied to a widely used model, i.e., the Random Walk mobility model. Finally, the analytical
results are verified through simulations.
In order to deal with the challenges appeared with the mobility of PUs, a novel paradigm of
sensing has arisen: it is the deep sensing. This new paradigm estimates the time-dependent flat-
fading gain and primary user's mobile positions jointly at the same time of detecting its emission
status. The effectiveness of this approach was deeply investigated [22,23,24].
6. International Journal of Next-Generation Networks (IJNGN) Vol.12, No.1/2/3, September 2020

In [25] the authors have analyzed the effects of multiple mobile PUs on the spectrum sensing to
jointly maximize the sensing efficiency and sensing accuracy. To this aim, as first, a new
mathematical model (the aggregate PU model) is proposed to effectively describe the cumulative
effects of multiple mobile PUs on the spectrum sensing functionality. Then, stemming from this
model, closed form expressions for the sensing time and the transmission time that jointly
maximize the sensing efficiency and the sensing accuracy are derived.
In [26] the authors have studied the impact of the sensing accuracy on the transmission capacity
achievable by the cognitive user (CU) in a mobile primary-user (PU) network scenario.
To this aim, first of all, the spatial-temporal spectrum sensing model is extended to account for
the PU mobility effects that influence the number of discovered spatial opportunities. Then, a
new performance metric for Cognitive Radio networks, referred to as mobility-aware sensing
enabled capacity, is introduced. It measures the actual transmission capacity achievable by the
SU in a mobile PU network scenario with a realistic sensing detection capability, namely in the
presence of imperfect sensing decisions. The performance assessment highlights the impact of the
sensing accuracy on the channel access probability; in particular, it reveals the existence of an
optimal sensing time value that maximizes the mobility-aware sensing enabled capacity, which
depends on sensing and mobility parameters.
Another way to improve the performance of CR in a mobile scenario is the use of mobility
prediction to predict future PU locations according to the pre-collected topology information of
PU mobility [27]. In the same frame, a collaborative compressive sensing based approach to
estimate both the spectrum power and locations of the PUs is proposed in [28]. The authors have
exploited two facts: the relative narrow band nature of the transmitted signals compared with the
broad bandwidth of available spectrum and the mobile PUs located sparsely in the operational
space. Finally, after exploring many papers and works in this field, we notice that when we are
facing PU mobility issues, the proposed solutions generally focus on increasing the level of
abstraction often by taking into account two parameters that influence the performance of the
sensing in modeling. For example, in deep sensing, localization and sensing are jointly taken into
account, or in other cases it is the transmission and sensing times in [20] even in [28] the authors
have considered both the power spectrum and location are considered. These problem-solving
approaches are specially designed to deal with the complex nature of networks with PU mobility.
Thus, for realistic deployment of the CR paradigm in mobile PUs scenarios, the scientific
community must not only adapt existing methods or improve them but mainly it has to provide
new perceptions, because the existing methods may not support PU mobility. Moreover, how to
revise the current design of the spectrum sensing functionality in the presence of PU mobility is
still an open question that researchers on CR capacities should consider.
If in static scenarios, the sensing and the transmission times depend mainly on the following three
factors:
• The adopted spectrum sensing technique;
• The required interference constraint on the PU transmissions;
• The PU traffic dynamics.
In mobile scenarios, the sensing and the transmission times depend chiefly on the PU mobility.
2.2. Impact of Primary user on Channel Availability
The Channel availability is defined as the probability that a licensed channel will be available for
unlicensed user communications. Unlike the static scenarios, the channel availability in the
7. International Journal of Next-Generation Networks (IJNGN) Vol.12, No.1/2/3, September 2020
7
mobile case varies dynamically over time because of the variations in users' relative positions.
Thus, data and information about channel availability allow SU to select the spectrum band with
the best communication opportunities.
In most literature, static PUs are assumed where the channel availability does not vary in time. To
address this issue, in [29] the authors have designed a strategy to estimate the channel availability
based on the relative distances between PUs and SUs. The proposed strategy considers the PU
mobility. To develop their model, the authors considered a Random Way Point Mobility
(RWPM) for PU, where SUs were considered fixed.
The existence of a communication link between two SUs depends on the transmitting and
receiving of the close PUs. To address SU connectivity in CR-MANET, the authors in [30]
have analytically characterized this connectivity through continuum percolation and ergodicity
theories. Then, they looked into the effect of the primary user' temporal dynamics on the
connectivity of the secondary network, this led them to show the incidence of a transition phase
phenomenon
.
The research team distinguished between two cases as follows:
• If PU has some temporal dynamics: the connectivity of the secondary network depends
solely on its own density and is independent of the primary traffic.
• If it does not, the connectivity of the secondary network requires putting a density
dependent cap on the primary traffic load.
Finally, the authors concluded that the scaling behavior of multi-step delays depends on the
instantaneous connection of the secondary network. Notably, they established the scaling law of
the minimum multi-hop delay concerning the source-destination distance when the propagation
delay is negligible. To develop their model, the authors have considered a fixed secondary
network and two mobility models for primary transmitters: the random walk and the random
waypoint models.
In [31] a novel mobility-aware Channel-Availability based channel Selection Technique
(MCAST) is designed in order to ensure the selection of the channel with the highest channel
availability probability in a given temporal interval. To this aim, the channel availability
estimation method in the presence of PU mobility is derived firstly. Then, the proposed channel
selection techniques efficacy is proved, shown that it takes advantage of the dynamic variation of
channel-availability induced by PU mobility. Finally, the effectiveness of MCAST is evaluated in
a recently proposed routing metric.
In [32] the authors have showed to design an efficient channel selection strategy, channel
availability probability (CAP) and channel quality (CQ) are two key metrics that should be
considered. Contrary to static scenario where all the users are immobile, the CAP metric depends
only on the primary users' activity whereas the CQ metric remains relatively constant, for mobile
scenario the values of both metrics fluctuate not only with time (time-variant) but also over
different links between users (link-variant) due to the dynamic variation of primary- and
secondary-users' relative positions. In this paper, they have proposed a mobility-aware channel
selection technique by jointly accounting for the parameters of time- and link-variant CAP and
CQ for MCRNs. Underpinning this novel technique, the contributions of this work include the
following:
i) They have derived link-based CAP (L-CAP) estimation based on the relative distances among
PUs and CUs in a given temporal interval; ii) They have obtained a mathematical expression that
8. International Journal of Next-Generation Networks (IJNGN) Vol.12, No.1/2/3, September 2020
8
captures estimation of the link based CQ (L-CQ) in mobile scenarios; iii) They have proposed a
Link-oriented Channel-Availability and channel-Quality (LCAQ) based channel selection
strategy that aims to maximize the link throughput by taking into account two prominent channel
selection metrics, namely L-CAP and L-CQ, which are governed by the non-stationary of the
network topology induced by the user mobility
2.3. Conclusion and Discussion of Section 2
The main concern in the CRN is to identify available free spectrum, this objective will be
achieved by sensing the availability of a channel. The issue is that generally most of the studies
assume the scenario where both the SU and PU are static. It, therefore, means that the sensing
methods developed most commonly are not suitable for the mobile case. In mobile scenario, the
issue becomes more challenging than the one associated with the traditional case (i.e.stationary
scenario), since in addition to the temporal PU activity also the spatial effects due to the relative
mobility between the PUs and CUs have to be taken into account. In fact, the mobility can deeply
influence the percentage of discovered spectral opportunities (namely the spectrum holes that the
CUs can exploit), and then the mobility can affect also the transmission throughput achievable by
the CU.
In addition, a critical challenge for CRN is to design an intelligent channel selection technique. It
must choose the best channel by leveraging the dynamic variation of the channel availability
driven by PU mobility.
The integration of CR into the mobile scenario implies that either SUs or PUs are constantly
exposed to a changing nature, to a variable interference, and high mobility scheduling. This
makes cognitive radio nowadays not efficient enough in terms of communication because of the
lack of control and optimization adapted to mobility. To remedy this, a support structure adapted
to the mobility problems of different types of users should be adopted.
We can summarize the challenges in the case of partial mobility as follows:
• The determination of the spatiotemporal probability of the existence of the spectrum;
• Duration of spectrum sensing;
• Duration of spectrum opportunities;
• Random movements of users;
• Routing problems;
• Energy consumption problems;
• Connectivity problems due to topology change.
What we want to stress in this conclusion is the fact that it is not opportune to use the same
approaches to deal with different problems. This is the main stumbling blocks of the realistic
deployment of CR in this type of scenario. Thus, we need new perceptions and approaches for
this technology in order to take it to a whole new level.
.
3. GLOBAL MOBILITY OF USERS
The In the case of a global mobility of users, the problem of determining SUs links is more
complicated because of the movement of both SUs and PUs. Firstly, the communication between
the SUs is affected not only by the SUs themselves but also by the activity and the movement of
the PUs. The link between neighboring SUs is therefore not stable and the topology of CRN
changes frequently. Secondly, opportunistic spectrum access depends on frequent changes in the
9. International Journal of Next-Generation Networks (IJNGN) Vol.12, No.1/2/3, September 2020
9
availability of links for SUs over time and space. Therefore, the topology control and the routing
in CRNs show different characteristics compared to traditional wireless networks. In a word,
research on dynamic topology control and routing in this type of CRNs is a difficult problem.
Thus, research on predicting the temporal availability of links has a significant importance. In
this perspective, in [33] the authors sought to present an optimal network topology for routing
through a local cognitive topology control algorithm (LCTCA). The LCTCA enables the
optimization of routing and the formation of a multi-objective metric of network topology, thanks
to combining the availability of links with energy consumption. On this basis, it is designed to
select the best network line and diminish the frequency of rerouting; the LCTCA catches the
dynamic changes of the topology and then builds a reliable topology under the conditions of
network connectivity.
The prediction of an available link must contain the following information:
• The interference of SUs with PUs;
• The rate of spectrum utilization by PUs;
• The mobility of PUs and SUs.
According to the authors, no previous work has considered both energy consumption and link
stability to optimize the topology of the CRN. Actually, whenever one of them is considered, the
other is ignored. So, the topology of the CRNs cannot reach the optimum.
In [34] the authors have studied the impact of both joint primary-user and secondary user
mobility on spectrum sensing in CR networks has been studied. For this reason two performance
metrics have been derived analytically: a) the detection capability, which evaluates the impact of
the mobility on the SU detection probability; b) the mobility-enabled sensing capacity. Two
mobility models were adopted to carry out the theoretical analysis. The authors found out that the
sensing capacity increases significantly in the presence of PU mobility if the PU protection range
is smaller than the network region size albeit the significant border effect for the RWP-
constrained mobility model for PUs. Therefore, in pervasive cognitive radio networks, when
unlicensed mobile users are allowed to co- exist alongside mobile licensed users, there is still
opportunistic communication expected without much interference. The simulations carried out
match the mathematical analysis.
In [35] the authors have built their study on questioning the impact of PUs and SUs mobility on
the performance of mobile cellular cognitive radio (CRCN) networks with a real-time traffic.
They tried to find answers by deriving the handed-off arrival rate, new call blocking, forced
termination, and interruption probabilities of SUs. These metrics were under the assumption that
cell dwell time and unencumbered service time are independent exponentially distributed random
variables. The obtained numerical results showed that the mobility of PUs and SUs is the key
factor and the influencer of the different system performance measures.
In the same vision, in [36] the authors have proposed a new architecture to deal with PU and SU
mobility. The suggested architecture will ensure a permanent exchange of information between
the primary and secondary networks. Thus, the architecture of the network will be a decision-
making element, instead of being only a relay of information. The architecture will also reduce
spectrum sensing time and increase the efficiency of the detection itself, which is essential to any
implementation of CR. Thanks to this the secondary networks will be able to receive the
information of the environment in real time and in a permanent manner
10. International Journal of Next-Generation Networks (IJNGN) Vol.12, No.1/2/3, September 2020
10
But some interesting questions have not been addressed in this work to judge its effectiveness.
For instance, how the constant exchange of information between networks will affect the
network? How often this information should be exchanged for the algorithms to work
productively? Supposing that each "network" corresponds to a network cell, then the amount of
traffic that needs to be exchanged can be significant, thus influencing the backbone and the
overall quality of service. It should also be pointed that the involvement of telecom operators in
the development of this kind of algorithms would be the only way to effectively evaluate their
effectiveness, otherwise, the work with virtual datasets would not reflect the actual load of
cellular networks.
The estimated PU location is subject to many errors due to various reasons, such as; limited
observation time, the number of sensors and their coverage, channel variations, and node
mobility [37]. Therefore, the assumption of perfect location information makes algorithms that
have addressed this issue less practical.
To address this issue, in [38] the authors have proposed a CR power control algorithm that takes
into account both uncertainties related to wireless channels and the estimation of the location of
PUs that have not been studied in the literature.
Thus, the authors considered the problem of power control in CRNs when the location of the PU
and the wireless channel are unknown. They have considered the distance estimation error in the
CR-PU links to model the location uncertainties and to derive the channel gain distribution as a
function of distance-dependent path loss and shading. Afterwards, they developed an
optimization framework for CR power control that maximizes data throughput under the
constraint of PU interference power. The simulation results are presented to show that the CR
data rate is higher than the existing works.
An evolutionary approach was proposed in [39], where the author has studied the optimal SU
packet size in mobile CRNs under fading channels because determining the size of SU packet
becomes much more complicated and critical. For this purpose, the PU activity impact and the
node mobility impact are studied jointly. The author investigates a CRN where both PUs and SUs
are mobile. He considered the Random Waypoint as the mobility model for both types of user.
He found that the PU activity and the mobility of both SUs and PUs have significant impacts on
the SU packet size.
3.1. Conclusion and Discussion of Section 3
Our investigation in the scientific literature has shown that studies on the mobility of both PU and
SU are rare and, moreover, scattered. Most efforts to find solutions to mobility simply indicate or
ask questions about the scenario where PU and SU are both mobile, without touching the heart of
the subject. We envision that this scenario of mobility will emerge as a major challenge for the
future of CR, if the characterization of the radio environment involves the estimation of the
following key elements [40]:
• Channel Identification ;
• Channel Capacity Estimation ;
• Channel Switching Delay ;
• Channel Interference Estimation ;
• Channel Holding Time ;
• Channel Error Rate ;
• Subscriber Location ;
• Path Loss.
11. International Journal of Next-Generation Networks (IJNGN) Vol.12, No.1/2/3, September 2020
11
Accordingly, these elements should be revised with the incorporation of the mobility of both
types of users in the context of CR. Since this scheme of the characterization of the radio
environment assumes that both users are static, whereas new problems will arise that were not
included in this traditional approach. Thus, this mobility requires rethinking not only the main
features characterizing the radio environment but the whole concept of CR.
To deal with sensing problems, new perceptions and strategies are needed to get the CR out of
the bottleneck. This case implies that cooperation should not be restricted only between SU, but
should be extended to include PU. Therefore, other questions will arise for the first time in the
context of the CR, for example:
• How SU and PU cooperate in cooperative sensing?
• How to select the cooperating SU and PU?
• How to perform cooperative sensing in a stable and reliable manner?
Another proposition is to take advantage of the explosion of extensive geo-localized data related
to the movement of different types of terminals. This will make it possible to quantitatively study
individual and collective mobility models, and to generate models capable of capturing and
reproducing spatiotemporal structures. This will also contribute to the deployment of spectrum
maps that are able to provide more accurate information.
We also think that it is important to incorporate online machine learning algorithms in the
different phases of the cognitive cycle to take advantage of its opportunities compared to batch
learning algorithms [41].
Mobile scenarios are totally different from traditional static ones, hence, the need to innovate and
produce other mathematical methods and models that can take this complexity into account.
Multi-objective optimization can also be an effective mean of studying dynamic access to
spectrum, since the latter involves several variables that require joint processing, hence the need
to find a compromise between them.
Also, the issue of the suitability of PU mobility models has recently become a source of criticism.
In [42] the authors have argued that realistic mobility models are important for understanding the
performance of routing protocols in the cognitive Internet (CI) (same for CR), especially when
the behaviours and activities of the PUs are taken into account. Currently, the primary user's
mobility models are generally simplistic spectrum handover models or traditional mobility
models that do not reflect realistic spatiotemporal characteristics. Therefore, the effect of PU
mobility should be closely integrated with the available spectrum time and the appearance
behaviour of the PUs. A new PU mobility model called TSS (temporal mobility, spatial mobility,
and spectrum mobility) was proposed in [42]. In the same vision, in [43] the authors have noted
that the effect of PU mobility has not received enough attention in the CRCN because it is a
recent research topic. Thus, the service interruption of SUs due to the arrival of PU and its
mobility must be taken into account for the CRCN performance analysis.
Even in [44] the authors have mentioned that although previous studies have raised questions
about the conventional cellular network and CR networks, they have generally focused on single
subject research topics such as priority scheduling in conventional cellular networks, or the
intercellular activity of SUs in CR networks. But the problem lies in the joint consideration of
these research subjects. In the model proposed by these authors, the cognitive base station (CBS)
treats a number of mobile stations (MS) as secondary mobile stations (SMS), while others are
considered primary mobile stations (PMS). In this overlay approach: CBSs share the same radio

channels to communicate simultaneously between SMS and PMS pairs. The classification of an
MS as a PMS or SMS depends on its location in a macro cell. (This is a new way of classifying
SU and PU).Thus, each cell is divided into three zones: A) opportunistic or cognitive, B)
protected and regular, or C) primary. In an inner area A, the terminal behaves as a secondary
receiver (SMS) while inside area B or C it behaves as a normal mobile receiver, while an MS in
area C is considered only as PMS. Protected area B attenuates the signal transmitted to SMS
below the acceptable signal level received at the PMS in area C. The development and innovation
of other classification methods such as the one described in this article can reduce the complexity
of CR implementation in the mobile case.
4. CONCLUSIONS
Our analysis of the existing literature on CR and mobility has shown that user mobility within the
context of CR is a subject of deep and crucial consideration for good spectrum management. We
can say that in reality, there is no shortage of spectrum, but only the lack of advanced techniques
for perfect spectrum use. This paper presented a new taxonomy of work based on the mobility of
primary users. The main objective of our work was to highlight this phenomenon within the
context of CR. In fact, it is a recent research topic that doesn't reach its maturity yet to enables
CR to become the foundation of the "Next Generation Network." This work can help new
researches to focus on the mobility of PUs. We believe that the limits of the CR in
telecommunications have not yet been reached and that many efforts are still needed, as the
future would be a world of trillions of objects such as IoT ones, requiring continuous spectrum
functionality. Traditional communication technologies would not withstand this situation. This
means the development of techniques that support the mobility of different types of users has
become an obligation
