The source is assisted by the cognitive relay node which is allowed to coexist with the primary user by imposing severe constraints on the transmission power so that the quality of service of the primary user is not degraded by the interference caused by the secondary user. The effect of the cognitive relay node on the proposed cognitive relay network model is studied by evaluating the outage probability under interference power constraints for different fading environments. A relay transmission scheme, namely, decode-and-forward is considered. For both the peak and average interference power constraints, the closed-form outage expressions are derived over different channel fading models. Finally, the analytical outage probability expressions are validated through simulations. The results indicate that the proposed model has better outage probability than direct transmission. It is also found that the outage probability decreases with the increase of interference power constraints. Meanwhile, the outage probability under the average interference power constraint is much less than that under the peak interference power constraint when the average interference power constraint is equal to the peak interference power constraint.展开更多

Among the possible gains and losses, the balance must be positive to reach the intended utility. Criminal law is the most repressive branch of legal system and therefore should be applied sparingly by the state. Its usefulness should be the protection of legal interests and minimal restriction of personal liberty. The lawmaker should seek the best way to achieve this utility with the choice of the most relevant legal interests and less repressive means before appealing to the criminal law. The legal interests protected by criminal law must be the most important ones for a social life in harmony and prohibited behaviors must be injurious or dangerous to those legal interests. The Rule of Law does not authorize criminal prohibitions without a minimum limit that allows citizens to behave according to their wishes, provided that does not harm the interests of other people. This is the calculation that legislator, judge, and interpreter should seek： more protection and less restriction to citizens.展开更多
