In this work, we formulate the potential game model of joint channel selection and power allocation. First, under the interference constraint, a nonlinear optimization problem is formulated for improving the total throughput and considering the fairness in cognitive radio network. we also define the special objective function for each transmitting node and formulate a potential game to solve this problem distributively. The Nash equilibria of this potential game is investigated. It is shown that the distributed sequential play converges to a Nash equilibrium point and quickly satisfy the interference constraint. Finally, through simulations, the performances are examined and we further investigate the relationship between the parameters of the objective function and the performances of the whole cognitive radio network.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
