Performance Analysis of IEEE 802.22 Wireless Regional Area Network with Different Modulation Schemes and Code Rates: A Review

Abstract

Abstract: The wireless regional area network (WRAN) is an IEEE 802.22 standard. It operates in the very high frequency and ultra-high frequency range. It works on the principle of cognitive radio. The basic objective of WRAN is to sense the available frequency spectrum and assign this sensed frequency to the secondary user. The performance of the network strongly depends on the wireless environment and different channel conditions. In this paper, we are analyzing the performance of the WRAN in terms of Bit error rate, signal to noise ratio and throughput. The WRAN is simulated in MATLAB for different parameters, different modulation methods and various channel conditions.

Keywords: BER (bit error rate), SNR (signal-to-noise ratio), WRAN, MATLAB, OFDM (orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing), QAM (quadrature amplitude modulation)
