Statistical Delay QoS Provisioning for Energy-Efficient Spectrum-Sharing Based Wireless Ad Hoc Sensor Networks

In this paper,we develop the statistical delay quality-of-service (qos) provisioning framework for the energy-efficient spectrum-sharing based wireless ad hoc sensor network (wahsn),which is characterized by the delay-bound violation probability. based on the established delay qos provisioning framework,we formulate the nonconvex optimization problem which aims at maximizing the average energy efficiency of the sensor node in the wahsn while meeting pu's statistical delay qos requirement as well as satisfying sensor node's average transmission rate,average transmitting power,and peak transmitting power constraints. by employing the theories of fractional programming,convex hull,and probabilistic transmission,we convert the original fractional-structured nonconvex problem to the additively structured parametric convex problem and obtain the optimal power allocation strategy under the given parameter via lagrangian method. finally,we derive the optimal average energy efficiency and corresponding optimal power allocation scheme by employing the dinkelbach method. simulation results show that our derived optimal power allocation strategy can be dynamically adjusted based on pu's delay qos requirement as well as the channel conditions. the impact of pu's delay qos requirement on sensor node's energy efficiency is also illustrated. © 2016 yichen wang and wenwen xu.
