Abstract—Recent studies have been conducted to indicate the ineffective usage of licensed bands due to the static spectrum allocation. In order to improve the spectrum utilizatio...
Recently, a cooperative paradigm for single-channel cognitive radio networks has been advocated, where primary users can leverage secondary users to relay their traffic. However, i...
Cognitive radios, which enable the coexistence on the same bandwidth of licensed primary and unlicensed secondary users, have the potential for dramatically increasing the efficien...

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...
