Abstract

Cognitive radio has been proposed as the most promising technology to overcome the spectrum scarcity problem by exploiting the vacant frequency band of assigned licensed spectra; though some tradeoffs exist to protect the licensed primary user communication and to enhance the throughput of unlicensed secondary cognitive user. Through spectrum sensing and power control scheme, this issue can be addressed well as it allows the cognitive user to access the licensed band when primary user is not using it. In most of the previous works, it has been assumed that for transmission power control, perfect channel state information is available beforehand to the cognitive transmitter. This assumption does not hold good in practical scenarios and moreover it is difficult to implement spectrum sensing in device. To address this issue, a sensing free power control scheme based on CR receiver sensitivity is proposed in this paper. It allows cognitive user to controls its transmission power adaptively by approximating the distance from primary through cognitive receiver sensitivity. Simulation results are presented to verify the theoretical analysis.
