Abstract

Scarcity problem of radio spectrum resource stimulates the research on cognitive radio technology, in which dynamic spectrum allocation attracts lots of attention. For higher access efficiency in cognitive radio context, we suggest a fully dynamic resource allocation scheme for primary and secondary users, which is modelled by a master-slave stochastic knapsack process. Equilibrium behavior is analyzed, and expressions of blocking probability of both slave and master classes are derived as performance criterion and verified by numeric simulation, as well as forced termination probability of the secondary users. Compared to traditional opportunistic spectrum access (OSA), which can be regarded as half dynamic, our scheme leads to less termination events for the slaves while keeping the same behavior for the master class, promoting the system access performance.
