Abstract
The energy-efficient design for TDMA (time-division multiple access) MIMO (multiple-input multiple-output) cognitive radio (CR) networks can be treated as the joint optimization over both the time resource and the transmit precoding matrices to minimize the overall energy consumption. Compared with the traditional MIMO networks, the challenge here is that the secondary users (SUs) may not be able to obtain the channel state information (CSI) to the primary receivers. The corresponding mathematical formulation turns out to be non-convex and thus of high complexity to solve in general. This chapter covers both the transmission choices for each SU: single-data-stream transmission and multiple-data-stream transmission. Fortunately, by applying a proper optimization decomposition, it can be shown that the optimal solution can be found in polynomial time in both cases. In practical wireless system, the time is usually allocated in the unit of slot. Moreover, by exploring the special structure of this particular problem, it can be shown that the optimal time slots allocation can be obtained in polynomial time with a simple greedy algorithm. Simulation results show that the energy-optimal transmission scheme adapts to the traffic load of the secondary system to create a win-win situation where the SUs are able to decrease the energy consumption and the PUs experience less interference from the secondary system. The effect is particularly pronounced when the secondary system is underutilized.

Proof of Proposition 1:
We first show that \(E_{S_{k}}\left (t_{S_{k}}\right )\) is a continuous function in \(t_{S_{k}}\) by showing \(\lim \limits _{t_{S_{ k}}\rightarrow \tau _{S_{k}}^{-}\left (m_{S_{k}}\right )}E_{S_{k}}\left (t_{S_{k}}\right ) =\lim \limits _{t_{S_{k}}\rightarrow \tau _{S_{k}}^{+}\left (m_{S_{k}}\right )}E_{S_{k}}\left (t_{S_{k}}\right )\):
and
Thus we have
Therefore, \(E_{S_{k}}\left (t_{S_{k}}\right )\) is a continuous function in \(t_{S_{k}}\).
Next, we show that \(\frac{dE_{S_{k}}} {dt_{S_{k}}}\) is a continuous function in \(t_{S_{k}}\) by showing \(\lim \limits _{t_{S_{ k}}\rightarrow \tau _{S_{k}}^{-}\left (m_{S_{k}}\right )}\frac{dE_{S_{k}}} {dt_{S_{k}}} =\lim \limits _{t_{S_{ k}}\rightarrow \tau _{S_{k}}^{+}\left (m_{S_{k}}\right )}\frac{dE_{S_{k}}} {dt_{S_{k}}}\). The first-order derivative of \(E_{S_{k}}\left (t_{S_{k}}\right )\) with respect to \(t_{S_{k}}\) is
It can be shown that
and
Thus, we have
Therefore, \(\frac{dE_{S_{k}}} {dt_{S_{k}}}\) is a continuous function in \(t_{S_{k}}\).
The second-order derivative of \(E_{S_{k}}\left (t_{S_{k}}\right )\) with respect to \(t_{S_{k}}\) is
which is always positive for any positive \(t_{S_{k}}\). However, it is not continuous in \(t_{S_{k}}\), with the noncontinuous points at \(t_{S_{k}} =\tau _{S_{k}}\left (m_{S_{k}}\right )\), (\(m_{S_{k}} = \left \{1,\cdots \,,\left (W_{S_{k}} - 1\right )\right \}\)).
Next we show that \(\frac{dE_{S_{k}}} {dt_{S_{k}}}\) is always negative for any positive \(t_{S_{k}}\). Since \(\frac{d^{2}E_{ S_{k}}} {dt_{S_{k}}^{2}}\) is always positive, this means that \(\frac{dE_{S_{k}}} {dt_{S_{k}}}\) is an increasing function in \(t_{S_{k}}\). Thus, we have
The second line of (32) follows from (28), which states that when \(t_{S_{k}}\) approaches infinity, the optimal number of data streams equals 1. Therefore, we can find that the optimal energy consumption \(E_{S_{k}}\left (t_{S_{k}}\right )\) is a strictly convex, continuous, first-order differentiable, and monotonically decreasing function in \(t_{S_{k}}\). □
