摘要

Performance evaluation of transport layer protocols in cognitive radio sensor networks (CRSNs) is useful to provide quality-of-service for real-time reliable applications. This paper develops an analytical framework to model the steady-state sending rate of collecting cognitive radio (CR) sensors in rate-based generic additive-increase multiplicative-decrease (AIMD) and additive-increase additive-decrease (AIAD) congestion control schemes. Evolution process of sending rate is modeled by a discrete time Markov chain (DTMC) in the terms of queue length. We model the queue length distribution of a CR node by a semi-Markov chain (SMC) with assuming general probability density functions (PDFs) of input rate and attainable sending rate of the node. These PDFs are derived based on the parameters of MAC and physical layers and CRSN configuration. The proposed models are verified through various simulations.
