Abstract : Cognitive radio (CR) technology is rapidly developing these days due to its capability of adaptive learning and
reconfiguration. Thus, using Cognitive Radio Networks (CRNs) spectrum efficiency can be increased by allowing the
secondary users (SUs) to access the licensed band dynamically and opportunistically without interfering the primary users
(PUs). Daniel H. and Ryan W. Thomas, define the CRNs in the context of machine learning as the network which improves
its performance through experience gained over a period of time without complete information about the environment in
which it operates. Thus, the dynamism and opportunism can be learnt by reinforcement learning, which is concerned with
how software agents or learning agents ought to take actions in an environment so as to maximize some notion of cumulative
reward. The paper proposes a routing scheme that uses Q-learning, which is the most widely used RL approach in wireless
networks. In Q-learning, the learnt action value or Q-value, Q (state, event, action) is updated using the reward and is
recorded. For each state-event pair, an appropriate action is rewarded and its Q-value is increased. Hence, the Q-value
indicates the appropriateness of an action selection in a state-event pair. At any time instant, an action is chosen by the agent
in such a way that it maximizes its Q-value. The reward corresponds to performance metric such as throughput.
