In IEEE 802.11af technology, the White Space Device (WSD), Station (STA), and Access Point (AP) communicate opportunistically over the television white spectrum without causing any harmful interference to licensed services. In the proposed network structure; WSDs, STA and AP use the Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA) technique to communicate over the white space spectrum determined by the White Space Map (WSM). WSD collects data such as temperature, humidity, pressure from sensors in various environments. The priority class is determined as red, yellow and green depending on the urgency of the data. After the analytical model of the proposed network was obtained, the simulation model was implemented using Riverbed Modeler. The graphical results prove the validity and feasibility of the proposed network in terms of latency (0.17 s) and energy consumption (4.7 mJ/s) without any spectrum cost for monitoring priority-based data.tr10.17341/gazimmfd.1466774info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCognitive RadioIEEE 802.11afPriorityWireless Sensor NetworksArticle403182318362-s2.0-105013676460WOS:001569394800030Q2Q3
