Abstract
In this chapter, we present the Rate-Adaptive Probabilistic (RAP) framework for spectrum sensing and management that allows multiple low-complexity cognitive radio users to fairly share the available spectral opportunities without inter-flow communication. The RAP framework exploits coordinated random spectrum selection approach to relax the hardware requirements of the cognitive radio transceiver. For such a random spectrum selection, the RAP framework adopts a non-greedy rate-adaptive probabilistic transmission policy that adapts the transmission parameters based on the interference scenario to: (1) allow the cognitive senders to better explore spectral opportunities regardless of the inaccuracy of spectrum sensing, and (2) enable multiple cognitive radio flows to share the available opportunities in a distributed manner without explicit inter-flow coordination. Then, we present RAP-MAC as the protocol realization of the framework.
