| Abstract | Cognitive radio technology has emerged as the novel and effective approach to improve the utilization of precious radio spectrum. Employing the cognitive radio technology, secondary (unlicensed) users can opportunistically utilize the unused licensed spectrum in a way that constrains the level of interference to the primary (licensed) users. However, there are many new challenges associated with cognitive radio based wireless networks, such as the multi-channel hidden terminal problem and the fact that the time-varying channel availability is different for different secondary users, in the medium access control (MAC) layer. To overcome these challenges, we propose an efficient cognitive radio-enabled multi-channel MAC (CREAM-MAC) protocol, which integrates the spectrum sensing at physical layer and packet scheduling at MAC layer, over the wireless networks. Under the proposed CREAM-MAC protocol, each secondary user is equipped with a cognitive radio-enabled transceiver and multiple channel sensors. The proposed CREAM-MAC enables the secondary users to best utilize the unused frequency spectrum while avoiding the collisions among secondary users and between secondary users and primary users. In addition, we develop the analytical models to quantitatively analyze our proposed CREAM-MAC protocol in the saturated network case. We also conduct simulation experiments to validate our developed analytical models. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
