Comparison between Poissonian and Markovian Primary Traffics in Cognitive Radio Networks
Cognitive Radio generates a big interest as a key cost-effective solution for the underutilization of frequency spectrum in legacy communication networks. The objective of this work lies in conducting a performance evaluation of the end-to-end message delivery under both Markovian and Poissonian primary traffics in lossy Cognitive Radio networks. We aim at inferring the most appropriate conditions for an efficient secondary service provision according to the Cognitive Radio network characteristics. Meanwhile, we have performed a general analysis for many still open issues in Cognitive Radio, but at the end only two critical aspects have been considered, namely, the unforeseen primary reclaims in addition to the collided cognitive transmissions due to the Opportunistic Spectrum Sharing. Some graphs, in view of the average Spectral Efficiency, have been computed and plotted to report some comparative results for a given video transmission under the Markovian and the Poissonian primary interruptions.
Keywords: Cognitive Radio Network, Multimedia Traffic Transmission, Spectral Efficiency, Markovian Traffic, Poissonian Traffic.
