The problem of distributed multiuser medium access of a hierarchical cognitive radio network with multiple primary and secondary users is considered. Each primary user has a licen...
—Cognitive radio (CR) systems need to be able to adjust the transceiver characteristics in response to stimuli received from the radio environment. Therefore, monitoring the wire...
—Cooperative communications leverages the spatial diversity available in a wireless network enabling multiple radio nodes work together to improve the overall system performance....
Recently, many works have been proposed in the area of cognitive radio to efficiently utilize the spectrum for data communication. However, little effort has been made in content...
Abstract—Cognitive Radio Networks aim at enhancing spectrum utilization by allowing cognitive devices to opportunistically access vast portions of the spectrum. To reach such amb...
