Abstract:
Cognitive Radio Networks (CRN) are a new area of interests for researchers and a new technology for the next generation wireless networks. Multiple access protocol is an important issue to define the networks performance. In this paper, the throughput of a primary and secondary network is analyzed considering the Capture Effect in both systems and the Packet Error Rate (PER) due to the interference between primary and secondary stations, considering that the slotted Aloha protocol is proposed for the licensed network and Slotted Carrier Sense Multiple Access (CSMA) protocol is used in the secondary network.
