Transmit Power Policy and Ergodic Multicast Rate Analysis of Cognitive Radio Networks in Generalized Fading
This paper determines the optimum secondary user power allocation and ergodic multicast rate of point-to-multipoint communication in a cognitive radio network in the presence of outage constraints for the primary users. Using tools from extreme value theory (EVT), it is first proved that the limiting distribution of the minimum of independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) random variables (RVs) is a Weibull distribution, when the user signal and the interferer signal undergo independent and non-identically distributed (i.n.i.d.) κ-μ shadowed fading. This limiting distribution is then used for determining the optimum transmit power of a secondary network in an underlay cognitive radio network subject to outage constraints at the primary network in a generalized fading scenario. Furthermore, the asymptotic ergodic multicast rate of secondary users is analyzed for varying channel fading parameters.
