Shrnutí:The cognitive radio (CR) is evolved as the potential technology to solve the problem of spectrum scarcity and to meet the stringent requirements of upcoming wireless services. CR has two distinct features, the spectrum sensing and the parameter adaptation. The former feature helps the CR to find the vacant spectrum slots/channels in the radio band while the latter mechanism allows it to adjust the operating parameters (e.g. frequency band, modulation and power, etc.) accordingly. The primary user (PU) activity has serious effects on the overall performance of the cognitive radio network (CRN).The CR should vacate the channel if it detects the arrival of the primary user (PU) in order to avoid the interference. The channel eviction/switching phenomenon severely degrade the quality of service (QoS) of the CR user and it is perhaps the key challenge for the CRN. In this paper, we propose the dynamic channel selection and parameter adaptation (CSPA) scheme based on the genetic algorithm to provide better QoS for the CR by selecting a best channel in terms of the quality, the power and the PU activity. The CSPA deals with the problem of channel switchings and it provides better QoS to the CR user. Simulation results prove that CSPA outperforms the existing schemes in terms of channel switchings, average service time, power and throughput.
