New Construction of Asynchronous Channel Hopping Sequences in Cognitive Radio Networks.

The channel-hopping-based rendezvous is essential to alleviate the problem of under-utilization and scarcity of the spectrum in cognitive radio networks. It dynamically allows unlicensed secondary users to schedule rendezvous channels using the assigned hopping sequence to guarantee the self-organization property in a limited time. In this paper, we use the interleaving technique to cleverly construct a set of asynchronous channel-hopping sequences consisting of sequences of period xN2 with flexible parameters, which can generate sequences of different lengths.
