1.1 Background and Motivation

Cognitive radio networks (CRNs) have emerged as a promising solution to address the growing demand for wireless communication spectrum. The concept of CRNs revolves around enabling secondary users (SUs) to opportunistically access licensed spectrum bands without interfering with primary users (PUs). Efficient spectrum allocation is crucial for optimizing utilization in CRNs. Traditional spectrum allocation schemes often rely on static policies or simple sensing techniques, which are inadequate for dynamic environments [7]. Recent advances in deep learning (DL) have opened new avenues for improving spectrum management in CRNs. DL models can learn complex patterns in PU activity, enabling proactive spectrum access. This paper proposes a DL-based approach for spectrum allocation in CRNs. The approach leverages historical spectrum sensing data to predict PU activity. A single SU scenario is considered, with potential extension to multi-SU networks. The DL model guides SUs to select channels, balancing throughput and collision avoidance.

1.2 System Model and Assumptions

The system model consists of a single SU and multiple PUs operating in a CRN. The SU is equipped with a spectrum sensor to detect PU activity.

Table 2: System Parameters

The PUs are assumed to be operating in a licensed spectrum band. The SU aims to opportunistically access the spectrum band without interfering with Pus [8]. The system model assumes a time-slotted structure, with each time slot consisting of a sensing phase and a transmission phase. The SU senses the spectrum band during the sensing phase and transmits data during the transmission phase. The PU activity is modeled as a Markov chain, with two states: ON and OFF. The transition probabilities between the states are assumed to be known. The SU uses the sensed data to predict the PU activity and select a channel for transmission. The DL model is trained using historical spectrum sensing data.

1.3 Deep Learning-Based Approach

The DL-based approach uses a neural network to predict PU activity based on historical spectrum sensing data. The neural network takes the sensed data as input and outputs a probability distribution over the possible PU states. The SU uses the predicted PU activity to select a channel for transmission [9]. The DL model is trained using a supervised learning approach, with the goal of minimizing the prediction error. The neural network architecture consists of multiple layers, including convolutional and fully connected layers. The DL model is implemented using a deep learning framework, such as TensorFlow or PyTorch. The training data is generated using simulations, with the PU activity modeled as a Markov chain. The DL model is evaluated using metrics such as prediction accuracy and throughput. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the DL-based approach in predicting PU activity and improving spectrum utilization. The DL model can be integrated with other cognitive radio techniques, such as spectrum sensing and beamforming.

1.4 Performance Evaluation

The performance of the DL-based approach is evaluated through simulations. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach in predicting PU activity and improving spectrum utilization [10]. The DL model is compared with traditional schemes, such as energy detection and matched filter detection.

2. Problem Statement

The problem of spectrum allocation in cognitive radio networks (CRNs) is a challenging task due to the dynamic nature of primary user (PU) activity. Traditional spectrum allocation schemes often rely on static policies or simple sensing techniques, which are inadequate for dynamic environments. The lack of accurate PU activity prediction leads to poor spectrum utilization and high collision rates. Secondary users (SUs) often struggle to find available spectrum opportunities, resulting in reduced throughput and increased interference. The complexity of PU activity patterns makes it difficult to develop effective spectrum allocation strategies. Existing approaches often focus on short-term optimization, neglecting long-term performance. There is a need for a proactive approach that can learn and adapt to changing PU activity patterns. The problem requires a solution that can accurately predict PU activity and guide SU channel selection. The goal is to optimize spectrum utilization, throughput, and collision rate in CRNs. A novel approach is needed to address the challenges of spectrum allocation in CRNs.

3. Mathematical Approach

The mathematical approach to spectrum allocation in CRNs involves formulating the problem as a Markov decision process (MDP). The MDP is defined by a set of states, actions, transition probabilities, and rewards. The state space represents the current spectrum occupancy and PU activity. The action space represents the possible channel selections for the SU. The transition probabilities model the dynamics of PU activity and spectrum occupancy. The reward function is designed to optimize spectrum utilization, throughput, and collision rate. The goal is to find an optimal policy that maps states to actions, maximizing the cumulative reward. The problem is solved using dynamic programming or reinforcement learning techniques. The Q-learning algorithm is a popular choice for solving MDPs in CRNs. The Q-function represents the expected cumulative reward for a given state-action pair. The Q-function is updated iteratively using the Bellman equation. The policy is derived from the Q-function, selecting the action with the highest Q-value. The approach is model-free, requiring no prior knowledge of PU activity patterns. The SU learns to adapt to changing PU activity through trial and error. The mathematical approach provides a rigorous framework for spectrum allocation in CRNs. The MDP formulation allows for incorporation of various constraints and objectives. The solution approach is scalable to large-scale CRNs with multiple SUs. The mathematical approach provides a foundation for developing practical spectrum allocation algorithms. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the mathematical approach in optimizing spectrum utilization and throughput. The approach can be extended to incorporate additional features, such as PU activity prediction and cooperative sensing.

The spectrum allocation problem is modeled as a decision-making process in which the secondary user continuously selects transmission channels based on observed network conditions. The system state captures both the availability of channels and the activity of primary users, allowing the secondary user to understand the current spectrum environment. At each time step, the secondary user chooses one channel from a finite set of available channels to transmit data. The environment evolves over time according to probabilistic rules that describe how primary user activity and channel occupancy change. A reward mechanism is used to guide the learning process by encouraging successful transmissions on idle channels while penalizing harmful interference with primary users. Successful access improves spectrum utilization and throughput, whereas collisions reduce overall system performance. The objective is to identify a strategy that balances aggressive spectrum access with protection of licensed users. Long-term performance is emphasized by considering future rewards through a discounting mechanism. Learning is performed iteratively by updating the expected benefit of selecting each channel under different conditions. Over time, the secondary user improves its decisions by comparing immediate outcomes with predicted future gains. The strategy converges toward selecting channels that are more likely to be free while avoiding those prone to collisions. This approach allows adaptation to dynamic and uncertain spectrum conditions without requiring prior knowledge of the environment. By continuously interacting with the network, the secondary user refines its access policy. The resulting decision policy maximizes overall spectrum efficiency while maintaining coexistence with primary users. This framework provides a robust and adaptive solution for intelligent spectrum access in cognitive radio networks.
