This paper sets a channel error analytical framework and studies the joint impact of estimation errors and feedback delay on secrecy performance in cognitive radio networks. Under the assumption that system applies beamforming and jamming scheme,a multi-antenna cognitive base station( CBS) sends confidential signals to a secondary user( SU) in the presence of M primary users( PUs) and an eavesdropper. Assuming only imperfect channel state information( CSI) about the receivers is available,secrecy rate,outage probability,secrecy throughput are deduced to obtain a closed-form expression. It is shown that while the transmit power increases,secrecy throughput would reach to a constant. Simulation results show that feedback delay adversely impacts on secrecy rate,connection outage probability and secrecy throughput,while estimation error causes more impact on secrecy outage probability. Furthermore,the secrecy rate could increase progressively with the transmit power only if there exists no feedback delay.展开更多

Long-term statistics and current sensing results are integrated into the proposed decision method of spectrum access. Two decision methods, namely probability based and sensing based, are presented, compared and followed by performance analysis in terms of delay. For probability based spectrum decision, Short-Time-Job-First (STJF) priority queuing discipline is employed to minimize average residual time and theoretical conclusion is derived in a novel way. For sensing based decision we treat the interrupted service of SU as newly incoming and re-decision process is initialized to find available spectrum in a First-Available-First-Access (FAFA) fashion. Effect of sensing error in PHY layer is also analyzed in terms of extended average residual time. Simulation results show that, for relatively low arriving rate of SU traffic, the proposed spectrum decision method yields at least a delay reduction of 39.5% compared with non-adaptive method. The proposed spectrum decision can significantly improve delay performance even facing sensing errors, which cause performance degeneration to both PU and SU.展开更多

In other words, the primary users have higher priority over the secondary users. In this paper, backlog and delay distribution bounds for both primary users and secondary users are obtained. The analysis is based on stochastic network calculus, for which, stochastic service curves are t-n-st derived for both primary users and secondary users, and the network calculus independent case analysis approach is used to find the distribution bounds. Numerical results and simulation results are also presented and discussed.展开更多

In the present study, chemical vapor deposited (CVD) monolayer graphene supported on glass substrate electrochemical biosensing applications was examined as electrode material for We report a facile strategy for covalent functionalization of CVD monolayer graphene by electrochemical reduction of carboxyphenyl diazonium salt prepared in situ in acidic aqueous solution. The carboxyphenyl-modified graphene is characterized using Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and atomic force microscopy (AFM), as well as electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (hIS). We also show that the number of grafted carboxyphenyl groups on the graphene surface can be controlled by the number of cyclic voltammetry (CV) scans used for electrografting. We further present the fabrication and characterization of an immunosensor based on immobilization of ovalbumin antibody on the graphene surface after the activation of the grafted carboxylic groups via EDC/NHS chemistry. The binding between the surface-immobilized antibodies and ovalbumin was then monitored using Faradaic EIS in [Fe(CN)6]^3-/4- solution. The percentage change of charge transfer resistance (Rct) after binding exhibited a linear dependence for ovalbumin concentrations ranging from 1.0 pg·mL^-1 to 100 ng·mL^-1, with a detection limit of 0.9 pg·mL^-1. Our results indicate good sensitivity of the developed functionalized CVD graphene platform, paving the way for using CVD monolayer graphene in a variety of electrochemical biosensing devices.展开更多
