N2 - Slotted Aloha and carrier sensing multiple access (CSMA) are effective random access protocols, which can also be important elements of more advanced media access protocols. In this paper, we investigate slotted Aloha and CSMA protocols in a cognitive radio network, where primary users have higher priority than secondary users and secondary users need to monitor the channel to avoid interference to the primary users, it is thus proposed that slotted Aloha is used for primary users to access the channel and secondary users use slotted CSMA to sense the time slots of slotted Aloha and transmit their packets during idle time slots. A Rayleigh fading channel is considered and we derive the throughput of slotted Aloha and CSMA for the primary and secondary users.
