Abstract: This paper primarily investigates and addresses the optimal power adaptation strategy problem for multi-user cognitive radio network. The need to determine the optimal power transmission for the secondary user (SU) in a distributed network environment is challenging and important. This requires an efficient adaptive strategy with high convergence capability in order to meet up with the multi-users quality of service (QoS) requirements in a cognitive network and ultimately ensure more efficient resource utilization amongst users. In this paper, a distributed QoS contraint scheme which considered both the transmission power and outage probability has been proposed to maximize the network performance and to control the SUs transmission power. Firstly, the QoS constraint optimization problem for distributed secondary users is formulated and solved in order to adapt with the network dynamics of the cognitive networks. Subsequently, the solution has been used to dynamically adjust the radio power of the SUs to conform with the stringent network constraint and ensures coexistence amongst the users. More importantly, the simulation result shows that the scheme increases the overall network utility when compared to the scheme without adaptation.
