Robust resource allocation for cognitive relay networks with multiple primary users

A robust resource allocation (RA) algorithm for cognitive relay networks with multiple primary users considering joint channel uncertainty and interference uncertainty is proposed to maximize the capacity of the networks subject to the interference threshold limitations of primary users’ receivers (PU-RXs) and the total power constraint of secondary user’s transmitter and relays. Ellipsoid set and interval set are adopted to describe the uncertainty parameters. The robust relay selection and power allocation problems are separately formulated as semi-infinite programming (SIP) problems. With the worst-case approach, the SIP problems are transformed into equivalent convex optimization problems and solved by Lagrange dual decomposition method. Numerical results show the impact of channel uncertainties and validation of the proposed robust algorithm for strict guarantee the interference threshold requirements at different PU-RXs.
