Maximum utilization of unused license spectrum is one of key factor in cognitive radio network which can handle the large number of systems and devices connected on smart grid AMI network. The central intelligence control system has responsibility to accept new technologies and users for automation. To ensure a reliable communication in smart grid system through cognitive network, a minimum mean square error (MSE) signal using unused licensed spectrum (or frequency) is necessary to be detected with small decision error. In this paper, we introduce a user control wireless smart grid system with minimum MSE using LMS algorithm.

In this paper, we study the problem of selfish behavior of secondary users (SUs) based on cognitive radio (CR) with the presence of primary users (PUs). SUs are assumed to contend on a channel using the carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance (CSMA/CA) and PUs do not consider transmission of SUs, where CSMA/CA protocols rely on the random deference of packets. SUs are vulnerable to selfish attacks by which selfish users could pick short random deference to obtain a larger share of the available bandwidth at the expense of other SUs. In this paper, game theory is used to study the systematic cheating of SUs in the presence of PUs in multichannel CR networks. We study two cases: A single cheater and multiple cheaters acting without any restraint. We identify the Pareto-optimal point of operation of a network with multiple cheaters and also derive the Nash equilibrium of the network. We use cooperative game theory to drive the Pareto optimality of selfish SUs without interfering with the activity of PUs. We show the influence of the activity of PUs in the equilibrium of the whole network.

The concept of Internet of Things (IoT) has shed new light on WSN technologies. MAC protocol issues improving the network performance are important in WSNs because of the increase in demand for various applications to secure spectrum resources. Cognitive radio (CR) technology is regarded as a solution to the problems in this future wireless network. In recent years, energy efficiency has become an issue in CR networks. However, few relevant studies have been conducted. In this paper, an energy-efficient non-overlapping channel MAC (ENC-MAC) for CR-enabled sensor networks (CRSNs) is proposed. Applying the dedicated control channel approach, ENC-MAC allows the SUs to utilize channels in a non-overlapping manner, and thus spectrum efficiency is improved. Moreover, the cooperative spectrum sensing that allows an SU to use only two minislots in the sensing phase is addressed to en-hance energy efficiency. In addition, an analytical model for evaluating the performance, such as saturation throughput, average packet delay, and network lifetime, is developed. It is shown in our results that ENC-MAC remarkably outperforms existing MAC protocols.

무선 멀티미디어 센서 네트워크는 이미지 센서나 마이크 센서에 의해 주기적으로 생성된 멀티미디어 데이터를 효율적으로 전송하기 위해서 가장 적합한 채널을 선택하는 것이 중요하다. 대부분의 기존 연구에서는 무선 센서 네트워크가 사용할 채널을 미리 고정하는 경우가 많았지만, 주파수 부족 문제가 심각한 현실에서는 특정 채널을 고정적으로 사용한다는 것이 다양한 환경을 지원하는데 큰 제약이 될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 이를 개선하기 위해서 기존 무선 인지 라디오 네트워크(Cognitive radio network)에서 사용하는 공통 제어 채널 없이 두 노드가 서로 사용 가능한 채널을 찾기 위한 방식을 도입하였다. 또한 기존 방식의 문제점으로 사용하는 채널수가 늘어날수록 성능이 크게 저하됨을 보이고, 이를 개선하기 위해 새로운 방식을 제안하였다. 따라서 제안 방식은 네트워크의 노드 밀도가 증가할수록 다른 방식에 비해 30% 이상 빠르게 링크를 설정할 수 있다.

인지 무선통신 네트워크는 현재까지 폭넓은 커뮤니티 중심의 오픈소스의 형식으로 연구되고 있으며, 프로그램이 가능한 플랫폼 기반의 연구 성과라는 생각에 대한 잠재적인 기대치는 매우 높다. 하지만, 이러한 무선 플랫폼의 확산과 지원하는 소프트웨어의 오픈소스적인 특성 또한 그 위험성이 매우 높다고 할 수 있다. 사용자간 (peer-to-peer) 소프트웨어가 한 때 오용되었던 것처럼, 개별 프로그래머가 저렴하고 쉽게 널리 보급할 수 있는 인지 무선통신 플랫폼을 개발하여 대중적으로 악용할 수 있는 가능성이 매우 큰 것이다. 이렇게 되면 차세대 무선 통신의 새로운 연구로 얻을 수 있는 이익 보다 인지 무선통신 디바이스를 재프로그래밍하여 통신법규를 어기거나 적대적으로 악용할 수 있는 부정적인 영향이 오히려 심각해 질 수 있다. 본 고에서는 이러한 인지 무선통신 네트워크의 보안 문제를 살펴보고, 효과적인 대체방안에 대하여 분석하였다.

It is widely believed that cognitive radio (CR) networks have an opportunistic nature and therefore can only support best-effort traffics without quality-of-service (QoS) guarantees. In this paper, we propose a centralized CR network that adopts interference averaging techniques to support QoS guaranteed traffics under interference outage constraints. In such a CR network, a CR user adaptively adjusts its transmit power to compensate for the channel loss, thereby keeping the receive signal power at the CR base station (BS) at a constant level. The closed-form system capacity of such a CR network is analyzed and derived for a single cell with one CR BS and multiple CR users, taking into account various key factors such as interference outage constraints, channel fading, cell radius, and locations of primary users. The accuracy of the theoretical results is validated by Monte Carlo simulations. Numerical and simulation results show promising capacity potential for deploying QoS-guaranteed CR networks in frequency bands with fixed primary receivers. Our work can provide theoretical guidelines for the strategic planning of centralized CR networks.

Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) provide high-speed backbone networks without any wired cable. Many researchers have tried to increase network throughput by using multi-channel and multi-radio interfaces. A multi-radio multi-channel WMN requires channel assignment algorithm to decide the number of channels needed for each link. Since the channel assignment affects routing and interference directly, it is a critical component for enhancing network performance. However, the optimal channel assignment is known as a NP complete problem. For high performance, most of previous works assign channels in a centralized manner but they are limited in being applied for dynamic network environments. In this paper, we propose a simple flow estimation algorithm and a hybrid channel assignment algorithm. Our flow estimation algorithm obtains aggregated flow rate information between routers by packet sampling, thereby achieving high scalability. Our hybrid channel assignment algorithm initially assigns channels in a centralized manner first, and runs in a distributed manner to adjust channel assignment when notable traffic changes are detected. This approach provides high scalability and high performance compared with existing algorithms, and they are confirmed through extensive performance evaluations.

As 5G mobile systems carry multiple services and applications, numerous user, and application types with varying quality of service requirements inside a single physical network infrastructure are the primary problem in constructing 5G networks. Radio Access Network (RAN) slicing is introduced as a way to solve these challenges. This research focuses on optimizing RAN slices within a singular physical cell for vehicle-to-everything (V2X) and enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB) UEs, highlighting the importance of adept resource management and allocation for the evolving landscape of 5G services. We put forth two unique strategies: one being offline network slicing, also referred to as standard network slicing, and the other being Online reinforcement learning (RL) network slicing. Both strategies aim to maximize network efficiency by gathering network model characteristics and augmenting radio resources for eMBB and V2X UEs. When compared to traditional network slicing, RL network slicing shows greater performance in the allocation and utilization of UE resources. These steps are taken to adapt to fluctuating traffic loads using RL strategies, with the ultimate objective of bolstering the efficiency of generic 5G services.

GPRS is designed for transmitting packet data and supposed to take its radio resource form the pool of channels unused by GSM voice services. In this paper, The GPRS and GSM circuit switched services share the same radio resource. Whenever a channel is not used by circuit switched services, it may be utilized by GPRS. In this paper, the main aim is performance and comparison resource management policies with channel de-allocation in GPRS network. Three resource management policies is voice priority, R-reservation, dynamic reservation.
