Problem Statement update period in Cognitive Radio Ad Hoc Networks with the objective of maximizing the capacity available at an arbitrary Let us consider an arbitrary ad hoc network, in which each node acting as source. To this aim, ?rst, the problem of the node must forward the data traf?c according to its knowledge routing update period is reformulated to account for the slotted of the network topology. Whenever a node proactively main- nature of the Cognitive Radio time induced by the spectrum tains such a routing knowledge, routing update packets need sensing functionality. Then, we analytically derive the available capacity at the source node as function of the routing update to be periodically exchanged among the nodes. Clearly, the period through closed-form expressions. The mathematical anal- choice of the routing update period deeply affects the routing ysis is carried out by adopting three different routing update performance, independently of the adopted routing protocol. strategies and two different PU activity models.
