Benchmarking spectral handoff rate performance in cognitive wireless networks with real multi-user access

Cesar Hernández, Diego Giral, Fredy Martínez

Abstract


Cognitive radio (CR) has proven to be an excellent alternative to the problem of inefficient spectrum use in wireless networks. However, the vast majority of proposals found in the current literature are restricted to the access of a single secondary user (SU) to the network, and the few proposals with multiple access do not take into account the access of other primary users (PUs) during the opportunistic transmission of the SU. The objective of this work is to perform a comparative evaluation of the spectral handoff (SH) rate in cognitive wireless networks with multi-user access in an environment with other PUs interacting. To carry out this evaluation, four SH models with better performance were selected: deep learning (DL), feedback fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FFAHP), simple additive weighting (SAW), and Naïve Bayes (NB), which were validated according to the metric of the number of total handoffs, under four scenarios given by the combination of the following parameters: low spectral availability, high spectral availability, active presence of others SUs, and passive presence of others SUs. The results show that each model performs well according to the scenario in which it is executed, suggesting an adaptive multi-model as a proposal.
