Abstract :

One of the most prominent challenges in meeting the demand is the scarcity of radio resources. Cognitive radio is one of the techniques has been proposed for efficiently utilizing the radio resources. In Cognitive Radio CR) networks, the CR users have opportunities to access the licensed spectrum bands assigned to the primary users (PUs). Since the PUs have priorities to use the bands, the CR users are not allowed to generate unacceptable interference to them. In this paper, we investigate power allocation schemes for CR networks with two users where one users uses direct transmission and the other uses AF relay-aided transmissions. We first formulate an overall rate optimization problem with interference constraints to the PU and peak power constraints at each node and obtain solutions by theoretical analysis. We also simulate the solution base on different location of the relay and different location of the PU network.we compare the results with equal power allocation
