Abstract
We study an uplink multi secondary user (SU) cognitive radio system having average delay constraints as well as an instantaneous interference constraint to the primary user (PU). If the interference channels from the SUs to the PU have independent but not identically distributed fading coefficients, then the SUs will experience heterogeneous delay performances. This is because SUs causing low interference to the PU will be scheduled more frequently, and/or allocated more transmission power than those causing high interference. We propose a dynamic scheduling-and-power-control algorithm that can provide the required average delay guarantees to all SUs as well as protecting the PU from interference. Using the Lyapunov technique, we show that our algorithm is asymptotically delay optimal while satisfying the delay and interference constraints. We support our findings by extensive system…
