Energy efficiency (EE) maximization problem for Cognitive Underwater Acoustic Network is investigated in this study. Available works on EE usually assume that spectrum sensing is accurate or that channel state information (CSI) is perfect, which is often impractical. Thus, an adaptive resource allocation scheme is proposed to maximize the EE, subject to the transmission power constraint of secondary user (SU) and the interference power constraint of primary user (PU). By taking the spectrum sensing errors into account, we add power interference from PU to SU in the objective function. Besides, interference tolerance factor is introduced to control the interference from SU to PU. Assuming CSI uncertainties of the involved channels are bounded, they are separately modeled as stochastic-case or worst-case according to their nature. Since the established optimization problem is nonconvex, it is converted into a convex one and then solved by the techniques of fractional programming and dual decomposition. Simulation results validate that the EE can be improved by classifying the CSI uncertainties and solving the expectation of the CSI correlation function. Furthermore, the interference from SU to PU can be controlled well by the adjustment of the interference tolerance factor.

In this work, we investigate the secrecy energy efficiency (SEE) optimization problem for a multiple-input single-output (MISO) cognitive radio (CR) network based on a practical nonlinear energy-harvesting (EH) model. In particular, the energy receiver (ER) is assumed to be a potential eavesdropper due to the open architecture of a CR network with simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT), such that the confidential message is prone to be intercepted in wireless communications. The aim of this work is to provide a secure transmit beamforming design while satisfying the minimum secrecy rate target, the minimum EH requirement, and the maximum interference leakage power to primary user (PU). In addition, we consider that all the channel state information (CSI) is perfectly known at the secondary transmitter (ST). We formulate this beamforming design as a SEE maximization problem; however, the original optimization problem is not convex due to the nonlinear fractional objective function. To solve it, a novel iterative algorithm is proposed to obtain the globally optimal solution of the primal problem by using the nonlinear fractional programming and sequential programming. Finally, numerical simulation results are presented to validate the performance of the proposed scheme.

In this paper, we propose a joint sensing duration and transmission power allocation scheme to maximize the energy efficiency (EE) of the secondary user (SU) in a cooperative cognitive sensor network (CSN). At the initial time slot of the frame, the secondary transmitter (ST) performs energy harvesting (EH) and spectrum sensing simultaneously using power splitting (PS) protocol. The modified goodness of fit (GoF) spectrum sensing algorithm is employed to detect the licensed spectrum, which is not sensitive to an inaccurate noise power estimate. Based on the imperfect sensing results, the ST will act as an amplify-and-forward (AF) relay and assist in transmission of the primary user (PU) or transmit its own data. The SU’s EE maximization problem is constructed under the constraints of meeting energy causality, sensing reliability, and PU’s quality of service (QoS) requirement. Since the SU’s EE function is a nonconvex problem and difficult to solve, we transform the original problem into a tractable convex one with the aid of Dinkelbach’s method and convex optimization technique by applying a nonlinear fractional programming. The closed-form expression of the ST’s transmission power is also derived through Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) and gradient method. Simulation results show that our scheme is superior to the existing schemes.

Paradigm shift to wireless power transfer provides opportunities for ultra-low-power devices to increase energy storage from electromagnetic (EM) sources. The notable gain occurs when EM sources deliver information as a meaningful signal with power transfer. Thus, energy harvesting (EH) is an active approach to obtain power from surrounding EM sources that transfer energy deliberately. This paper discusses energy efficiency (EE) trade-offs and EE maximization in simultaneous wireless power and information transfer (SWIPT) for wireless sensor networks (WSNs). The power splitting (PS) and time switching (TS) model for SWIPT are investigated in detail, where EE optimization is essential. This work formulates EE maximization problem as non-linear fractional programming and proposes a novel algorithm to solve the maximization problem using Lagrange dual decomposition. Numerical results reveal that the proposed algorithm maximizes EE in both PS and TS modes through noteworthy improvements.

AbstractWe address the problem of spectrum sensing in decentralized cognitive radio networks using a parametric machine learning method. In particular, to mitigate sensing performance degradation due to the mobility of the secondary users (SUs) in the presence of scatterers, we propose and investigate a classifier that uses a pilot based second order Kalman filter tracker for estimating the slowly varying channel gain between the primary user (PU) transmitter and the mobile SUs. Using the energy measurements at SU terminals as feature vectors, the algorithm is initialized by a K-means clustering algorithm with two centroids corresponding to the active and inactive status of PU transmitter. Under mobility, the centroid corresponding to the active PU status is adapted according to the estimates of the channels given by the Kalman filter and an adaptive K-means clustering technique is used to make classification decisions on the PU activity. Furthermore, to address the possibility that the SU receiver might experience location dependent co-channel interference, we have proposed a quadratic polynomial regression algorithm for estimating the noise plus interference power in the presence of mobility which can be used for adapting the centroid corresponding to inactive PU status. Simulation results demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed algorithm.

Achieving energy efficiency (EE) fairness among heterogeneous mobile devices will become a crucial issue in future wireless networks. This paper investigates a deep learning (DL) approach for improving EE fairness performance in interference channels (IFCs) where multiple transmitters simultaneously convey data to their corresponding receivers. To improve the EE fairness, we aim to maximize the minimum EE among multiple transmitter–receiver pairs by optimizing the transmit power levels. Due to fractional and max-min formulation, the problem is shown to be non-convex, and, thus, it is difficult to identify the optimal power control policy. Although the EE fairness maximization problem has been recently addressed by the successive convex approximation framework, it requires intensive computations for iterative optimizations and suffers from the sub-optimality incurred by the non-convexity. To tackle these issues, we propose a deep neural network (DNN) where the procedure of optimal solution calculation, which is unknown in general, is accurately approximated by well-designed DNNs. The target of the DNN is to yield an efficient power control solution for the EE fairness maximization problem by accepting the channel state information as an input feature. An unsupervised training algorithm is presented where the DNN learns an effective mapping from the channel to the EE maximizing power control strategy by itself. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed DNN-based power control method performs better than a conventional optimization approach with much-reduced execution time. This work opens a new possibility of using DL as an alternative optimization tool for the EE maximizing design of the next-generation wireless networks.

<p>Cognitive Radio has been skillful technology to improve the spectrum sensing as it enables Cognitive Radio to find Primary User (PU) and let secondary User (SU) to utilize the spectrum holes. However detection of PU leads to longer sensing time and interference. Spectrum sensing is done in specific “time frame” and it is further divided into Sensing time and transmission time. Higher the sensing time better will be detection and lesser will be the probability of false alarm. So optimization technique is highly required to address the issue of trade-off between sensing time and throughput. This paper proposed an application of Genetic Algorithm technique for spectrum sensing in cognitive radio. Here results shows that ROC curve of GA is better than PSO in terms of normalized throughput and sensing time. The parameters that are evaluated are throughput, probability of false alarm, sensing time, cost and iteration.</p>
