Abstract

Cognitive radio networks (CRNs) are drawing more and more attention along with the increasingly scarce spectrum resource. A CRN can be easily invalid due to stochastic activities of primary users. How to sustain the connectivity of CRNs and prolong the lifetime of CRNs become challenging issues. Inspired by the success of constructing a connected dominating set (CDS) as a virtual backbone in traditional wireless networks to prolong the lifetime of the network, we study the CDS construction in CRNs in this paper. We propose a three-phase centralized algorithm and a distributed algorithm. Theoretical analysis shows that our algorithms have better performance than that of existing results.
