In this paper, an intelligently cooperative communication network with cognitive users is considered, where in a primary system and a secondary system, respectively, a message is communicated to their respective receiver over a packet-based wireless link. The secondary system assists in the transmission of the primary message employing network coding, on the condition of maintaining or improving the primary performance, and is granted limited access to the transmission resources as a reward. The users in both systems exploit their previously received information in encoding and decoding the binary combined packets. Considering the priority of legitimate users, a selective cooperation mechanism is investigated and the system performance based on an optimization problem is analyzed. Both the analytical and numerical results show that the condition for the secondary system accessing the licensed …
