This paper considers the resource allocation problem in an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) based cognitive radio (CR) network, where the CR base station adopts full overlay scheme to transmit both private and open information to multiple users with average delay and power constraints. A stochastic optimization problem is formulated to develop flow control and radio resource allocation in order to maximize the long-term system throughput of open and private information in CR system and ensure the stability of primary system. The corresponding optimal condition for employing full overlay is derived in the context of concurrent transmission of open and private information. An online resource allocation scheme is designed to adapt the transmission of open and private information based on monitoring the status of primary system as well as the channel and queue states in the CR network. The scheme is proven to be asymptotically optimal in solving the stochastic optimization problem without knowing any statistical information. Simulations are provided to verify the analytical results and efficiency of the scheme.
Besides the interference constraints, the works of delay aware transmission are also quite relative to this paper. Huang and Fang in @cite_7 investigate both reliability and delay constraints in routing design for wireless sensor network. in @cite_9 summarize three approaches to deal with delay-aware resource allocation in wireless networks. A constrained predictive control strategy is proposed in @cite_27 to compensate for network-induced delays with stability guarantee. Those three methods are based on large deviation theory, Markov decision theory and Lyapunov optimization techniques. As to the first two methods, they have to know some statistical information on channel state and random arrival data rate to design algorithm, while these prior knowledge is expensive to get, even unavailable. To overcome this problem, many authors pay attention to Lyapunov optimization techniques. References @cite_40 and @cite_16 investigate scheduling in multi-hop wireless networks and resource allocation in cooperative communications, respectively as two typical applications of Lyapunov optimization in delay-limited system. In this paper, we utilize this tool to dispose the resource allocation problem in OFDMA-based CR networks.

In this paper, a comprehensive survey is given on several major systematic approaches in dealing with delay-aware control problems, namely the equivalentrate constraint approach, the Lyapunov stability drift approach, and the approximate Markov decision process approach using stochastic learning. These approaches essentially embrace most of the existing literature regarding delay-aware resource control in wireless systems. They have their relative pros and cons in terms of performance, complexity, and implementation issues. For each of the approaches, the problem setup, the general solution, and the design methodology are discussed. Applications of these approaches to delay-aware resource allocation are illustrated with examples in single-hop wireless networks. Furthermore, recent results regarding delay-aware multihop routing designs in general multihop networks are elaborated. Finally, the delay performances of various approaches are compared through simulations using an example of the uplink OFDMA systems. We investigate optimal resource allocation for delay- limited cooperative communication in time varying wireless networks. Motivated by real-time applications that have stringent delay constraints, we develop a dynamic cooperation strategy that makes optimal use of network resources to achieve a target outage probability (reliability) for each user subj ect to average power constraints. Using the technique of Lyapunov optimization, we first present a general framework to solve t his problem and then derive quasi-closed form solutions for several cooperative protocols proposed in the literature. Unlike earlier works, our scheme does not require prior knowledge of the statistical description of the packet arrival, channel sta te and node mobility processes and can be implemented in an online fashion. In this paper, we study resource allocation for a multicarrier-based cognitive radio (CR) network. More specifically, we investigate the problem of secondary users’ energy-efficiency (EE) maximization problem under secondary total power and primary interference constraints. First, assuming cooperation among the secondary base stations (BSs), a centralized approach is considered to solve the EE optimization problem for the CR network where the primary and secondary users are using either orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) or filter bank based multicarrier (FBMC) modulations. We propose an alternating-based approach to solve the joint power-subcarrier allocation problem. More importantly, in the first place, subcarriers are allocated using a heuristic method for a given feasible power allocation. Then, we conservatively approximate the nonconvex power control problem and propose a joint successive convex approximation-Dinkelbach algorithm (SCADA) to efficiently obtain a solution to the nonconvex power control problem. The proposed algorithm is shown to converge to a solution that coincides with the stationary point of the original nonconvex power control subproblem. Moreover, we propose a dual decomposition-based decentralized version of the SCADA. Second, under the assumption of no cooperation among the secondary BSs, we propose a fully distributed power control algorithm from the perspective of game theory. The proposed algorithm is shown to converge to a Nash-equilibrium (NE) point. Moreover, we propose a sufficient condition that guarantees the uniqueness of the achieved NE. Extensive simulation analyses are further provided to highlight the advantages and demonstrate the efficiency of our proposed schemes. This paper considers jointly optimal design of crosslayer congestion control, routing and scheduling for ad hoc wireless networks. We first formulate the rate constraint and scheduling constraint using multicommodity flow variables, and formulate resource allocation in networks with fixed wireless channels (or single-rate wireless devices that can mask channel variations) as a utility maximization problem with these constraints. By dual decomposition, the resource allocation problem naturally decomposes into three subproblems: congestion control, routing and scheduling that interact through congestion price. The global convergence property of this algorithm is proved. We next extend the dual algorithm to handle networks with timevarying channels and adaptive multi-rate devices. The stability of the resulting system is established, and its performance is characterized with respect to an ideal reference system which has the best feasible rate region at link layer. We then generalize the aforementioned results to a general model of queueing network served by a set of interdependent parallel servers with time-varying service capabilities, which models many design problems in communication networks. We show that for a general convex optimization problem where a subset of variables lie in a polytope and the rest in a convex set, the dual-based algorithm remains stable and optimal when the constraint set is modulated by an irreducible finite-state Markov chain. This paper thus presents a step toward a systematic way to carry out cross-layer design in the framework of “layering as optimization decomposition” for time-varying channel models.
