Abstract

In this paper, we study a full-duplex cooperative cognitive radio network with multiple full-duplex secondary users acting as potential relays for transmitting the packets of a primary user. In addition to having full-duplex capability, the receivers also have multi-packet reception capability allowing them to simultaneously decode packets incoming from different senders. Our objective is to maximize the sum throughput of the secondary users while stabilizing the primary and relay queues. Towards this objective, we characterize the optimal scheduling of primary and relay packets at the full-duplex secondary users. The resulting problem is non-convex, and thus, we transform it into a linear fractional problem by using the dominant system approach. This, in turn, facilitates an efficient numerical solution by the bisection method. We analyze the effects of different network parameters on the optimal solution numerically for a number of possible scenarios. Our numerical results demonstrate how the multi-packet reception and full-duplex capabilities, as well as the partial relaying and number of secondary users affect the primary and secondary users’ stable throughput revealing new insights into the performance of overlay cognitive networks. In particular, we demonstrate that full-duplex capability of secondary users together with multi-packet reception capability of the primary destination is the key in reaping the benefits of full-duplex cooperative cognitive communications.

Notes

  1. Our model is still valid under imperfect sensing, if the false positive and negative probabilities are known. These probabilities will in turn appear in the primary and secondary throughputs only further complicating their expressions. We leave the investigation of the effect of imperfect sensing for future studies, and focus on our primary objective of understanding the effects of FD and MPR capabilities. Our results can be considered as an upper bound on primary and secondary throughputs for a system with imperfect sensing.

  2. If the secondary transmitters are not fully backlogged, this would reduce the secondary sum throughput. However, the exact analysis of a such a system is not tractable due to its sheer computational complexity.

  3. Even though this is a strong assumption, the primary user has the motivation to share its codebook with the relays to increase its gains. Our results in the paper can be considered as an upper bound on the primary performance when this assumption does not hold.

  4. The duration of ACK packets are usually short, so the probability of collision for these packets are assumed negligible.

  5. If P3 is infeasible for \(t_l=0\), then there is no feasible solution, and thus, \(Q_p\) and/or \(Q_{ps,i}\) are not stable.

  6. Recall that the MPR capability is low when the received signal powers at the primary destination are close to each other. Since we assume that transmitter powers are equal, the MPR capability is low when the distances \(r_{S_{p}D_{p}}\) and \(r_{S_{i}D_{p}}\) are close to each other which is the case when \(\alpha\) is low.
