Abstract
In this paper, we propose a design method to extend certain cognitive radio (CR) MAC protocols originally proposed only for the one hop applications in distributed CR networks to MANET routing protocols. Among several CR MAC protocols, the opportunistic MAC (called O-MAC) and the opportunistic period MAC (called OP-MAC) are considered, and AODV as MANET routing protocol is used. We implement the protocols using OPNET network simulator, and compare the performances in both MAC and AODV routing environments. With the experiments, we analyze the relationship between MAC and routing performances of the CR protocols.
