Abstract:

In adaptive channel allocation for secondary user (SU) of cognitive radio (CR) system, it is necessary to consider allocation process from the temporal perspective. In this article, a chain store game is modeled to achieve SU’s equilibrium state. Due to the computational complexity of solving equilibrium states, the authors explore the correlated equilibrium (CE) by importing signal mechanisms based on time and sequence number. Also, correlated equilibrium based game algorithms are presented. Simulations show that these algorithms are superior to other allocation algorithms both in channel utilization and communication time.
