Efficient design of wireless networks requires implementation of cross-layer algorithms that exploit channel state information. Capitalizing on convex optimization and stochastic...
—We develop opportunistic scheduling policies for cognitive radio networks that maximize the throughput utility of the secondary (unlicensed) users subject to maximum collision c...
Cognitive radio networks that allow dynamic spectrum access are considered spectrally more efficient than networks using fixed spectral allocation. These networks are characterize...
In a wireless communications network, the movement of mobile users presents significant technical challenges to providing efficient access to the wired broadband network. In this ...
—Cognitive radio has been proposed in recent years to promote the spectrum utilization by exploiting the existence of spectrum holes. The heterogeneity of both spectrum availabil...
