Spectrum sensing is the key enabling technology for cognitive radio networks. The main objective of spectrum sensing is to provide more spectrum access opportunities to cognitive r...
: In this paper we are proposing a new concept in MAC layer protocol design for Cognitive radio by combining information held by physical layer and MAC layer with analytical engine...
We consider a secondary usage of spectrum scenario where a secondary network coexists and/or shares the radio spectrum with a primary network to which the spectrum is licensed. The...
Cognitive radios permit dynamic control of physical layer resources such as transmission power and constellation size; these degrees of freedom can be employed to achieve significa...

—In cognitive radio (CR) networks, licensed spectrum that can be shared by secondary users (SUs) is always restricted by the needs of primary users (PUs). Although channel aggreg...
