Abstract:

The dynamic spectrum access technology can achieve near-optimal spectrum utilization by allowing cognitive users to sense and utilize available spectrum opportunistically. Aiming at the “phenomena of once-assignment aggregation” of the graph coloring algorithms, a novel joint rules algorithm based on the collaborative max sum bandwidth rule and collaborative max proportional fair rule is proposed. The algorithm uses two different rules when calculating the node label, through which the allocation fairness between the cognitive users is improved, and the time overhead is reduced at the same time. Simulation results verify the feasibility and validity of the proposed algorithm.

Key words: cognitive radio, spectrum allocation, joint rules algorithm, fairness, time overhead
