Abstract
Adaptive transmission strategies for cognitive radio sensor network provide flexibility to the nodes based on data packets. In this paper, an optimum transmission distance is formulated by considering the energy consumption in the inter-cluster and intra-cluster data forwarding. The nodes are arranged in the clustered form and the size of cluster is adaptable with respect to the number of packets in the cluster. Furthermore, due to cognitive capability of sensor node, it is possible to calculate the residual time of unused licensed channels by taking into consideration the primary users activity. The proposed routing protocol uses the concept of optimal transmission distance and cognitive technique for data forwarding and the objective of the routing protocol is to forward the data packets through energy efficient paths. The comparison with other state-of-the-art algorithm validates that the proposed routing protocol improves the network performance.
