—We venture beyond the “listen-before-talk” strategy that is common in many traditional cognitive radio access schemes. We exploit the bi-directional nature of most primary c...
Establishing a control channel for medium access control is a challenging problem in multi-channel and dynamic spectrum access (DSA) networks. In the design of multi-channel MAC p...
—Opportunistic scheduling in random beamforming maximizes the sum-rate by allocating resources to the users with the best channel condition, thus leveraging on multiuser diversit...
Abstract— Spectrum-agile radios, also known as cognitive radios, have a great potential to improve spectrum utilization by enabling dynamic access to the spectrum. A key challeng...
