چکیده
Energy efficiency in cognitive radio networks has received lots of research attention lately due to the impact low energy efficiency has on the design, implementation and performance of the network. In this research, cognitive radio network as regards to energy efficiency has been analyzed. The importance of energy efficiency in cognitive radio networks and sources of unnecessary energy consumption in the network is also investigated. Ways in which higher energy efficiency in cognitive radio networks can be achieved is also addressed by employing suitable protocols, mechanisms and algorithm analyzed in the article. These measures can bring about low energy consumption amongst components in the network, improved sensing reliability and better energy efficiency which in turn enhances the overall

متن کاملDoes cognition come at a net energy cost in ad hoc wireless LANs?
Cognitive radios have been proposed in recent years to make more efficient use of the wireless spectrum and alleviate congestion on widely used frequency bands. A key aspect of these radios is the “cognition” gained through a spectrum scanning process. The benefit of this cognition is apparent and well studied in terms of achieving better communication performance on selected spectrum and detec...

In this paper, we study WSN design, as a multi-objective optimization problem using GA technique. We study the effects of GA parameters including population size, selection and crossover method and mutation probability on the design. Choosing suitable parameters is a trade-off between different network criteria and characteristics. Type of deployment, effect of network size, radio communication...
