Abstract: With the advancements in cognitive radio network procedures, such as blind sensing, sensing transmission trade-off, energy aware protocols etc, effectively overcomes the power constraint issues of CBAN. In present work, such primary issues have been addressed with the help of look-up table incorporated with energy harvesting (EH). It delivers maximum achievable throughput with minimum energy consumption to obtain self-sustainable pervasive wireless networks. The experimental work has been carried out in three different scenarios (Echelon 1, 2 and 3). The key components such as look-up table and energy harvesting have also been investigated on different system parameters (like energy consumption, normalized throughput, saved and residual energy). The simulation is done with NS-2 and results are shown in Matlab for clarity. Results depict that proposed model consumes less energy and also provides a better normalised achievable throughput as compared to the conventional model.
