Inhalt:
We devise a cross-layer design (CLD) of carrier sensing multiple access with collision avoidance (CSMA/CA) at the medium access control (MAC) layer with spectrum sensing (SpSe) at the physical layer for cognitive radio networks (CRNs). The proposed CLD relies on a Markov chain model with a state pair containing both the SpSe and the CSMA/CA with exponential backoff from which we derive the transmission and collision probabilities. Simulation and numerical results are derived that can be used as performance criteria to evaluate the performance of specific CRNs when they are deployed in a distributed coordination fashion that is prone to collisions.
