Abstract
The present invention relates to wireless network technology and presents a permutation group-based channel rendezvous method for a multi-antenna cognitive radio network, allowing a cognitive user equipped with multiple antennas to achieve blind channel rendezvous without the need for clock synchronisation. The present invention defines channel hopping sequences whilst making full use of properties such as channel diversity, the closure nature of permutation groups, and multi-antenna concurrency; based on the permutation groups obtained by rotating a regular polyhedron or a regular polygon around different angles according to different types of axes of symmetry, cyclical splicing is implemented, and different antennas can, according to different rules, independently generate hopping sequences and switching channels; the sequence generating methods are various and flexible; the use of parallel search ensures that deterministic rendezvous with other cognitive users is achieved as quickly as possible and as much as possible in a limited time; and the present method is a highly efficient blind channel rendezvous method having wide applicability and suitable for use in large-scale wirel…
