Abstract

Due to limited spectrum resources and differences in link loads, network congestion is one of the key issues in cognitive radio wireless mesh networks. In this letter, a congestion avoidance model with power control, channel allocation, and routing under the signal-to-interference-and-noise ratio is presented. As a contribution, a nested optimization scheme combined with a genetic algorithm and linear programming solver is proposed. Extensive simulation results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of our algorithm.
