The rapidly increasing traffic demand from mobile users forces network operators and service providers to extend and optimize existing networks as well as to plan entirely new mo...
We propose an opportunistic channel access scheme for cognitive radio-enabled secondary networks. In our work, we model the channel occupancy due to Primary User (PU) activity as a...
—Cognitive radios (CRs) can mitigate the impending spectrum scarcity problem by utilizing their capability of accessing licensed spectrum bands opportunistically. While most exis...

In a cognitive radio network, the full-spectrum is usually divided into multiple channels. However, due to the hardware and energy constraints, a cognitive user (also called second...
— In this paper we propose Cognitive Medium Access (CMA), a protocol aimed at improving coexistence with a set of independently evolving WLAN bands. A time-slotted physical layer...
