A survey on Rendezvous Algorithms in Cognitive Radio Networks Under Jamming Attacks

The problem of congestion in the licensed radio channels spectrum can be solved by Cognitive Radio Networks (CRN). Several algorithms exist to ensure the rendezvous between Secondary Users (SUs), they are increasingly efficient, allowing faster rendezvous under multiple scenarios. In parallel, several jamming algorithms are developed to counter rendezvous which are also improving. The goal in CRN is to ensure the rendezvous by warding such jammers with robust algorithms. In this paper, we classify various jamming techniques and analyze the performance of various well-known rendezvous algorithms under jamming attacks.
