| Abstract | In this paper, we characterize the QoS that secondary users can expect in a cognitive radio network in the presence of primaries. To that end, we first define a $$K$$ -dimensional QoS space where each point in that space characterizes the expected QoS. We show how the operating condition of the system maps to a point in the QoS space, the quality of which is given by the corresponding QoS index. To deal with the real-valued QoS space, we use vector quantization to partition the space into finite number of regions each of which is represented by one QoS index. We argue that any operating condition of the system can be mapped to one of the pre-computed QoS indices using a simple look-up in $$O(log\,N)$$ time—thus avoiding any cumbersome computation for QoS evaluation. The proposed technique takes the power vector as its input from the power control unit which we consider as a black box. Using simulations, we illustrate how a $$K$$ -dimensional QoS space can be constructed. We choose capacity as the QoS metrics and show what the expected capacity would be for a given power vector. We also show the effect of having large number of partitions on the distortion. As for the implementation feasibility of the proposed concept, we implement the QoS space on an 8-bit microcontroller and show how the mathematically intensive operations can be computed in a short time. Further we use binary search to achieve scalability as the dimensionality of the space increases. |

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.
