We consider opportunistic spectrum access for secondary users over multiple channels whose occupancy by primary users is modeled as discrete-time Markov processes. Due to hardware...
—Cognitive radios (CRs) can mitigate the impending spectrum scarcity problem by utilizing their capability of accessing licensed spectrum bands opportunistically. While most exis...

In this paper we propose a Dynamic Spectrum Access scheme which allows the users to opportunistically and efficiently access the channels available for communications. It addresses...
—This paper considers the design of efficient strategies that allow cognitive users to choose frequency bands to sense and access among multiple bands with unknown parameters. F...

— Spectrum sensing is a key enabling functionality in cognitive radio (CR) networks, where the CRs act as secondary users that opportunistically access free frequency bands. Due ...
