—To improve the performance of spectrum sensing, cooperation among Cognitive Radios (CRs) has been proposed recently as an effective solution. Most existing works require either ...
A cognitive radio (CR) network is often described as a secondary network operating in a frequency band originally licensed/allocated to a primary network consisting of one or multi...
—The IEEE 802.22 standard for wireless regional area network is the first standard for cognitive radio that tries to harness the idle or under-utilized spectrum allocated for TV...
Abstract—The queueing performance of a (secondary) cognitive user is investigated for a hierarchical network where there are N independent and identical primary users. Each prima...
Cognitive radio (CR) techniques improve the spectrum utilization by exploiting temporarily-free frequency bands (i.e., in the time domain). The spectrum utilization can be boosted...
