Abstract
In this paper, we propose a novel jamming-robust communication technique for the outdoor cognitive EV-enabled network over mixed radio-frequency (RF)/visible light communication (VLC) channels with signal-dependent noise. One EV acts as a relaying node to allow an aggregator to reach the jammed EV and, at the same time, operates in both RF and VLC spectrum bands while satisfying interference constraints imposed by the primary network entities. We derive an exact closed-form analytical expression for the outage probability and also provide its asymptotic analysis while considering various channel state information quality scenarios. Finally, simulation results validate the accuracy of our analysis.
