An analytical performance model considering access strategy of an opportunistic spectrum sharing system |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
In an opportunistic spectrum sharing system, secondary users (SUs) opportunistically access the white space spectrum that is not occupied by the primary user (PU). Some analytical performance models have been available based on Markov chain modeling. In these models, SUs and PUs access the spectrum by randomly selecting the available channels with equal probability. However, how SUs and PUs use the spectrum are controlled by the access strategy designed in their MAC layer in an ad-hoc network or centralized radio resource management layer in an infrastructure-based network. To analyze the grade of service (GoS) of the secondary system under consideration for the access strategy, we propose an access rule transition matrix to model the access behavior of radio resource management, and apply it into the continuous-time Markov chain model. It was proved that the proposed model is equivalent to the original models assuming the random access strategy by simulation. Moreover, we analyzed the GoS performance of the secondary system by assuming an ordered hunt access strategy. The results showed that the GoS performance of secondary systems can be improved greatly if it knows the spectrum access strategy of the primary system. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. |
