Abstract
Due to hardware limitation, the users in dynamic spectrum access networks can sense only a small part of channels (always one) at a time (Zhao, JAMA 25(3):589–600, [1]). As a result, there are two basic channel sensing strategies (Xu, Decision-theoretic distributed channel selection for opportunistic spectrum access: Strategies, challenges, and solutions, [2]): parallel sensing, i.e., a fixed set of channels is simultaneously sensed in each slot, and sequential sensing, i.e., channels are sequentially sensed according to a pre-defined order. For parallel sensing strategies, the users have to keep silent in the current slot if no idle channel is found, which may be inefficient. In comparison, the sequential sensing is more efficient and adaptive. However, interference/collision occurs if more than two users sense and access an idle channel simultaneously. Thus, the sensing orders in the sequential sensing strategy should be carefully designed.
