Abstract

A novelmultiple objective fitness function (OFF) is proposed for transmission parameter optimization in dynamic spectrum access. The proposed scheme consists of two phases: Four OFFs are individually designed in the first phase, where the spectrum band index is additionally considered unlike the conventional OFFs. In the second phase, then, the individual OFFs are combined to form a multiple OFF, where the individual OFFs may be differently stressed depending on the transmission scenario of interest. In simulation results, finally, the proposed multiple OFF is found to provide the optimal parameter set for transmission under various types of scenarios.
