文摘

Cognitive Radio is devised as a wireless communication technology that enables user to communicate without having a fixed pre assigned radio spectrum. The technology facilitates the utilization of temporarily unused portion of radio frequency in the licensed spectrum region. Since its invention, researchers have carried out their investigation in various directions like spectrum sensing, spectrum allocation, routing etc. In this paper, a routing mechanism is proposed for cognitive radio adhoc network named as proposed stable routing (PSR). The proposed algorithm constructs path from source to destination considering the probability of stability of the selected channel. The channel is considered stable if the probability that the channel would be claimed by the concerned primary user during the operation of secondary user is comparatively low. PSR is simulated in ns-2 and compared with Cognitive AODV (CAODV) protocol. Observation shows that PSR outperforms CAODV in terms of route survival time, routing overhead and packet loss rate.
