— We consider opportunistic spectrum access (OSA) which allows secondary users to identify and exploit instantaneous spectrum opportunities resulting from the bursty traffic of ...
Abstract— The coexistence and resource sharing between a primary network utilizing cognitive relays and a secondary network are investigated. Two multiple access protocols are pr...
