Abstract--Cognitive radio networks require fast and reliable spectrum sensing to achieve high network utilization by secondary users. Current optimization approaches to spectrum se...
We address the connectivity of large-scale ad hoc cognitive radio networks, where secondary users exploit channels temporarily and locally unused by primary users and the existenc...
Transmit-power control is a critical task in cognitive radio (CR) networks. In the present contribution, adherence to hierarchies between primary and secondary users in a peer-to-...
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...
With the intent of efficient occupying under-utilized spectrum, radio environment map (REM) based cognitive radio (CR) networking is proposed to facilitate the distributed spectru...
