This paper proposes a hybrid method of using genetic algorithm （GA） and simulated annealing （SA） to train HMM for discrete channel modelling. The proposed method is compared with pure GA, and experimental results show that the HMMs trained by the hybrid method can better describe the error sequences due to SA＇s ability of facilitating hill-climbing at the later stage of the search. The burst error statistics of the HMMs trained by the proposed method and the corresponding error sequences are also presented to validate the proposed method.展开更多

Most of the previ- ous works on spectrum sensing and dynamic spe- ctrum access consider the sensing effective- ness and spectrum utilization as the design cri- teria, while ignoring the energy related issues and QoS constraints. In this article, we propose a QoS provisioning energy saving dynamic acc- ess policy using stochastic control theory con- sidering the time-varying characteristics of wir- eless channels because of fading and mobility. The proposed scheme determines the sensing action and selects the optimal spectrum using the corresponding power setting in each decis- ion epoch according to the channel state with the objective being to minimise both the flame error rate and energy consumption. We use the Hidden Markov Model （HMM） to model a wir- eless channel, since the channel state is not dir- ectly observable at the receiver, but is instead embedded in the received signal. The proced- ure of dynamic spectrum access is formulated as a Markov decision process which can be sol- ved using linear programming and the primal- dual index heuristic algorithm, and the obta- ined policy has an index-ability property that can be easily implemented in real systems. Sim- ulation results are presented to show the per- formance improvement caused by the propo- sed approach.展开更多
