- This paper investigates cooperation for secrecy in cognitive radio networks. In particular, we consider a four-node cognitive scenario where the secondary receiver is treated as a potential eavesdropper with respect to the primary transmission. The cognitive transmitter can help the primary transmission, and it should also ensure that the primary message is not leaked to the secondary user. We consider two cognitive scenarios depending on whether the secondary transmitter knows the primary message or not. In the first case, the secondary transmitter is unaware of the primary transmitter's message and acts as a helping interferer to enhance the secrecy of the primary transmission, whereas in the second case, relaying of the primary message is also within its capabilities. First, we find achievable rate regions for these two scenarios in the case of AWGN channels. We then investigate three different optimization problems: the maximization of the primary rate, the maximization of the secondary rate and the minimization of the secondary transmit power. For these optimization problems, we find closed-form expressions in important special cases. Furthermore, we analyze the cooperation between the primary and secondary transmitters from a game-theoretic perspective. We model their interaction as a Stackelberg game, for which we define and find the Stackelberg equilibrium. Finally, we use numerical examples to illustrate the rate regions, the three optimizations, and the impact of the Stackelberg game on the achievable rates and on the transmission strategies of the secondary transmitter.

- This paper characterizes achievable rate regions for the Gaussian partially cognitive interference channel with multiple cognitive pairs (K-PCIFC), where the cognitive transmitters know one part of the primary transmitter's message. We explore a novel methodology using the deterministic discrete superposition model (DSM). We find codes and their achievable rate regions in the DSM, and we show that they yield achievable rate regions in the Gaussian model. Our coding scheme in the DSM can be applied in general scenarios. We devise an achievable rate region for the K-PCIFC, which is within a constant gap to known outer bounds for K = 2 in the weak interference regime. From our expressions we derive guidelines for designing the cognitive link between the primary transmitter and the cognitive transmitters. Furthermore, we show that the gain from cognition diminishes for increasing K.
