Abstract


ICT (Information and Communication Technology) trends are fast emerging and globally leading to the substantial demand of spectrum channels used for wireless networks. Cognitive Radio (CR) is an emerging technology solution that shall work on dynamic spectrum channel allocation. In cognitive radio ad hoc networks (CRAN), it is often difficult to establish the path among nodes with direct channel. Hence it is obvious to establish the path through the set of channels in sequence. The constraint is quality of service (QoS). Path establishment by the multiple channels in sequence needs a dynamic channel assignment for ensuring an optimum utilization of the available resources, whilst minimizing the interference in a network. In this paper, the emphasis is on Multichannel transmission Path with optimal QoS fitness for Cognitive Radio Networks. The proposed model is called QoS aware Multi-Channel Path (QMCP) discovery for end-to-end data transmission over CRAN. The QMCP performs the evolutions using adaptive genetic algorithm on the initial multichannel paths discovered in order to obtain the best fit path. The QoS metrics defined in our earlier contribution are used in fitness function. Results from the study reflect the robustness of the proposed model which could certainly impact the quality of channel assignment in CRNs. Since the adaptive genetic algorithm is used, the process complexity and completion time of the QMCP are also assessed.
