Abstract
Interference modeling in cognitive radio network is important to ensure adequate coverage in the network. A reliable interference model, however, depends on accurately characterizing the distribution of users. In this paper, the dependence between primary and secondary networks is examined in order to capture more system parameters related to system characterization. Hence, two cases are considered - primary user (PU) interference control and PU with secondary user (SU) interference control mechanisms. Under PU interference control, distributions of PUs follow the Matern hard core process while the distribution of SUs follow the Poisson hole process (PHP). However, under PU with SU interference control, the distribution of active SUs follow a modified PHP. Bound and approximate expressions were derived for coverage probability at both primary and secondary networks, while simple yet accurate expressions were obtained to depict the number of simultaneous active users supported for the two cases. The tight closeness between the bound and the approximate expressions shows the reliability of the presented theoretical analysis. Furthermore, the bipolar network model assumption was relaxed while the case of independence assumption among users was also considered. Numerical result showed close tightness when the bipolar network model assumption was relaxed while the independence assumption was shown to overestimate users' coverage probability.
