Motivation
Massive underutilization of licensed spectrum, in the face of scarcity of spectrum for new applications, is driving the shift of spectrum allocation paradigm from static to dynamic. Implementation of this paradigm is called cognitive radio (CR) [1], which can significantly enhance the spectrum utilization by allowing a group of unlicensed secondary users (SUs) to opportunistically access frequency bands originally licensed to some primary users (PUs).
4
Control and coordination of communication over wireless channels happen mainly at the medium access control (MAC) layer, designing a smart and efficient MAC protocol remains a key requirement for successful deployment of any CR network. The MAC protocol should be able to smartly adapt to the unique features of CR networks and maintain robust performance in the presence of a highly dynamic environment. Research has shown that MAC protocols designed for traditional wireless systems cannot meet the requirements for CR networks.

This paper provide a detailed survey of the research challenges and recent advances in the field of MAC design for distributed CR networks (DCRNs) Present an overview of network architectures and the main characteristics of DCRNs, followed by a discussion of critical issues and research challenges in designing a DCRN MAC Next, classify selected MAC proposals from the literature based on the major design approaches also overview the merits and demerits of these approaches in addressing key design issues. Finally, introduce a novel MAC design, referred to as opportunistic multichannel MAC (OMC-MAC), to better address a number of design issues identified
Present selected numerical and simulation results which show that OMC MAC outperforms these existing schemes in terms of providing higher throughput and lower collision probability with PUs due to sensing error at SU nodes.
