Transmission energy consumption analysis of a multi-channel cognitive radio network applying stochastic network calculus

The green communication draws a lot of attention in recent years. Meanwhile, as a promising technology, cognitive radio will constitute an important part of the future communication networks. Energy consumption of cognitive radio network is worthy studying, which is analyzed in this paper applying stochastic network calculus. A multi-channel cognitive radio network model is introduced. Stochastic network calculus is then used in the analysis, which is a newly developed theory dealing with queuing system found in computer networks. Guaranteed service for secondary users is firstly derived, followed by stochastic service curve derivation. Then, minimum transmission rate is conducted which is an important variable in energy analysis. After that, relationship between energy consumption and transmission rate is presented. As part of the derivation, delay bound and transmission power are discussed. Finally, numerical results of transmission rate, transmission power and energy consumption are shown for different constraint, where the influence of channel quantity is further discussed.
