In Cognitive Radio (CR) systems, spectrum sensing plays a key role to determine the free frequency bands. However, when the primaryuser (PU) signal spectrum exhibits localized fad...
—We analyze the multihop delay of ad hoc cognitive radio networks, where the transmission delay of each hop consists of the propagation delay and the waiting time for the availab...
Abstract--A common concept to mitigate the effects of spectrum scarcity is to allow opportunistic dynamic spectrum access (DSA) to licensed frequency bands. In this context, the li...

— In this paper, we evaluate a cognitive radio transceiver employing both non-contiguous multicarrier modulation (NC-MCM) and adaptive bit allocation. Although NCMCM and bit allo...
We propose an analytical model to assess the throughput and connection blocking rate of Opportunistic Spectrum Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access network constituted of ...
