However, the spatial heterogeneity of spectrum availability imposes special challenges for efficient utilization of the spectrum resources for cognitive radio ad hoc networks (CRAHNs). The cross-layer cooperative transmission scheme is a promising approach to improve the efficiency of spectrum utilization and improve the performance of cognitive radio networks. Such an approach leverages relay-assisted discontiguous OFDM (DOFDM) for data transmission at physical and MAC layers in a basic three-node configuration. With this scheme, a relay node will be selected that can bridge the source and the destination using its common channels between those two nodes. In this paper, we investigate the application of such a cooperative transmission scheme to address the spectrum heterogeneity issue in CRAHNs. In particular, we describe several types of cooperative transmission and formulate a new resource allocation problem with joint relay selection and channel allocation. We propose a heuristic algorithm to solve the resource allocation problem, which is based on the metric of utility-spectrum ratio of transmission groups. Simulations demonstrate the performance improvement of the cooperative transmission over the direct transmission. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2012\/863634","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,5,29]],"date-time":"2012-05-29T07:11:24Z","timestamp":1338275484000},"page":"863634","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Cooperative Transmission in Cognitive Radio Ad Hoc Networks"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"8","author":[{"given":"Juncheng","family":"Jia","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Computer Science and Technology, Soochow University, Suzhou 215006, China"}]},{"given":"Shukui","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Computer Science and Technology, Soochow University, Suzhou 215006, China"},{"name":"State Key Laboratory for Novel Software Technology, Nanjing University, Nanjin 210093, China"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,5,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"B2-2012-863634","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/98.788210"},{"key":"B3-2012-863634","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.adhoc.2009.01.001"},{"key":"B4-2012-863634","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1145\/1614320.1614322"},{"key":"B5-2012-863634","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/MCOM.2009.4785388"},{"key":"B6-2012-863634","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/INFCOM.2009.5062156"},{"key":"B9-2012-863634","first-page":"1273","volume-title":"Proceedings of the 19th Annual Joint Conference of the IEEE Computer and Communications Societies IEEE INFOCOM","volume":"3","author":"Lin Y.
