description Due to the growing demand for spectral resources with the emergence of IoT networks and applications, cooperative cognitive radio IoT networks (CCR-IoTN) are expected to play an essential role in the world of smart technology. In this paradigm, the benefits of cooperative communication and cognitive radio networks (CRN) are merged to meet IoT networks' needs. In this work, we employ the hybrid overlay-underlay CRN to guarantee both the secondary user (SU) stability and provide acceptable total throughput. In our CCR-IoTN, SUs may act as a relay to help the primary transmission. If the primary user (PU) is active, the secondary non-relay nodes transmit concurrently with the PU in underlay mode. In return for their cooperation, SUs are allowed to access the spectrum to transmit their data in overlay mode. In this context, we propose several fair resource allocation frameworks and compare well-known problems such as spectrum efficiency, energy efficiency as an objective function for CCR-IoTN. This kind of problem is inherently nonconvex. To solve the problems, therefore, we reformulate them as a convex problem using quadratic transform. Finally, we use simulation to evaluate the performance of the proposed hybrid resource allocation method. The resource allocation framework based on proportional fairness policy is shown to have acceptable performance in terms of throughput, fairness, and energy efficiency.
