چکیده

To encounter the emergent necessity of radio spectrum, which is a limited natural resource, proper utilization of the radio spectrum is a must. Introduction of cognitive radio networks can play a vital role to solve the spectrum scarcity. Cognitive radio uses an open spectrum allocation technique to make more efficient utilization of the wireless radio spectrum and reduce the bottleneck on the frequency bands. To deploy Cognitive Radio, a robust architecture is preconditioned. A dynamic cluster-based architecture is proposed for cognitive radio network in this paper. The proposed architecture breaks the Ad-hoc architecture of cognitive radio network into cluster for load balancing and efficient routing. The communication protocols for the proposed architect are ease to deploy so that it can be used for communication in natural calamities such as tsunami, earthquake, etc. Keywords— Cognitive radio network, network architecture, cluster networks, communication protocol

Interference-Aware and Cluster Based Multicast Routing in Multi-Radio Multi-Channel Wireless Mesh Networks

Multicast routing is one of the most important services in Multi Radio Multi Channel (MRMC) Wireless Mesh Networks (WMN). Multicast routing performance in WMNs could be improved by choosing the best routes and the routes that have minimum interference to reach multicast receivers. In this paper we want to address the multicast routing problem for a given channel assignment in WMNs. The channels...
