Nowadays, multi-radio multi-channel wireless mesh networks have been widely exploited to provide high-speed Internet access. By assigning different channels, the interference between wireless mesh network nodes can be greatly reduced, leading to a better network performance. However, the channel assignment attacks have imposed a serious security problem, where the diverse messages, that is, Channel Usage Message (CUM), Channel Change Message (CCM), Channel Switch Operation (CSO) and Security Alarm Message (SAM), are often used to launch attacks by the malicious nodes in order to disturb the normal channel assignment and thus the overall network performance. In this paper, we propose a joint anti-attack scheme (JAS) against the channel assignment attacks. Our JAS is composed of four key components: CUM, CCM, CSO and SAM defense schemes to protect the channel assignment. The CUM defense scheme verifies the CUM messages and their sender. The CCM defense scheme employs three rounds of CCM verifications. Furthermore, three control messages are exploited by the CSO defense scheme. The SAM defense scheme offers two rounds of verification for the alarm messages. Moreover, we apply our JAS to a popular distributed channel assignment algorithm, that is, Hyacinth. Through extensive simulation, the performance of the proposed scheme is evaluated by comparing with SeCA and SmartC in terms of Goodput and additional overhead. Observed from the simulation results, our scheme is demonstrated to outperform the best-known secure channel assignment algorithms.

In this paper, the theoretical analysis showed that the length of the route and the interference of links were the main factors that influence the throughput of the network. Then, a dynamic channel allocation algorithm base on the length of routes and the interference of links was proposed to enhance the system throughput. In the proposed algorithm, ant colony algorithm was used to collect the information of network, such as the length of routes and the interference of links. Then, the priority of link access channel was decided according to the collected information. The simulation results showed that the proposed algorithm could improve the whole network throughput obviously.

“…The channel assignment scheme can also be categorized based on the following implementation methods: (a) centralized [86], [87], (b) distributed [88]- [91], and (c) decentralized [92]. In the centralized channel assignment algorithms, a central node, such as a server, collects channel and link information from the nodes.…”

Abstract-The cognitive radio is an emerging technology that enables dynamic spectrum access in wireless networks. The cognitive radio is capable of opportunistically using the available portions of a licensed spectrum to improve the application performance for unlicensed users. The opportunistic use of the available channels in the wireless environment requires dynamic channel assignment to efficiently utilize the available resources while minimizing the interference in the network. A challenging aspect of such algorithms is the incorporation of the channels' diverse characteristics, highly dynamic network conditions with respect to primary users' activity, and different fragmented sizes of the available channels. This paper presents a comprehensive survey on the state-of-the-art channel assignment algorithms in cognitive radio networks. We also classify the algorithms by presenting a thematic taxonomy of the current channel assignment algorithms in cognitive radio networks. Moreover, the critical aspects of the current channel assignment algorithms in cognitive radio networks are analyzed to determine the strengths and weaknesses of such algorithms. The similarities and differences of the algorithms based on the important parameters, such as routing dependencies, channel models, assignment methods, execution model, and optimization objectives, are also investigated. We also discuss open research issues and challenges of channel assignment in the cognitive radio networks.
