Perturbation Analysis for Spectrum Sharing

The main challenge in operating cognitive ad-hoc networks is the lack of a centralized controller performing resource allocation for different users in the network. In this chapter, a distributed power allocation scheme is considered for secondary users and its performance is analyzed when time average channel gains are substituted for instantaneous channel gains. In this way, it is not necessary to exchange channel information; however, users’ allocated power will be perturbed. It is of interest to analyze mathematically this perturbation and to show how it affects the network performance. In particular, an upper bound on perturbation of each user’s allocated power is obtained. Then, it is shown that how this perturbation affects throughput and the interference constraint for the secondary network.
