In cognitive radio networks (CRNs), spectrum sensing is key to opportunistic spectrum access while preventing any unacceptable interference to primary users’ communications. Alt...
— Collaborative spectrum sensing among secondary users (SUs) in cognitive networks is shown to yield a significant performance improvement. However, there exists an inherent tra...
Abstract—Cognitive Radio Networks aim at enhancing spectrum utilization by allowing cognitive devices to opportunistically access vast portions of the spectrum. To reach such amb...
In cognitive radio networks, a cognitive source node requires two essential phases to complete a cognitive transmission process: the phase of spectrum sensing with a certain time d...
To network cognitive radios that require spectrum sensing to identify transmission opportunities emerges as a critical technology to facilitate spectrum efficient wireless communi...
