3. Background • Cognitive Radio Network (CRN) • The underutilization of limited spectral resource motivates the study of cognitive radio network. • Cognitive Radio Network consists of primary users (PUs) licensed to the spectrum, and secondary users (SUs) which access the spectrum opportunistically. • Due to the characteristics of cognitive radio network, the study of throughput and delay scaling laws in cognitive radio network is challenging.

4. Background • The throughput scaling of cognitive radio network is investigated in [S. Jeon, 2009] and [C. Yin, 2010]. • Study overlapping static primary and secondary network, where secondary network has higher node density. • Both networks can achieve the same throughput scaling as the stand-alone network. • [L. Gao, 2011] proves that cooperation among PUs and SUs can improve the throughput and delay scaling in CRN. • Secondary users are willing to relay the primary packets. • When SUs are mobile (i.i.d. mobility model), primary network can achieve near constant throughput and delay scaling.

We define preservation region to limit interference from SUs to PUs: • Preservation region is a square that contains 9 cells, with the active primary transmitter in the center cell. • Only SUs outside the current preservation region could transmit or relay packets. The scheduling scheme consists of 2h*+3 phases, the first h*+1 phases would transmit the primary packets, the next h*+2 phases would transmit secondary packets.
