— With the advent of cognitive radio technology, new paradigms for spectrum access can achieve near-optimal spectrum utilization by letting users sense and utilize available spec...
— We consider opportunistic spectrum access (OSA) which allows secondary users to identify and exploit instantaneous spectrum opportunities resulting from the bursty traffic of ...
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...
—The fundamental problem of multiple secondary users contending for opportunistic spectrum access over multiple channels in cognitive radio networks has been formulated recently ...
We design opportunistic spectrum access strategies for improving spectrum efficiency. In each slot, a secondary user chooses a subset of channels to sense and decides whether to ac...
