Cognitive relays form a special cooperation relationship among users in cognitive radio networks, and help increase the transmission rates of both primary users and secondary user...
Dynamic spectrum access (DSA) is an integral part of cognitive radio technology aiming at efficient management of the available power and bandwidth resources. The present paper d...
—Cooperative spectrum sensing has been shown to be able to greatly improve the sensing performance in cognitive radio networks. However, if cognitive users belong to different se...
Abstract— Spectrum-agile radios, also known as cognitive radios, have a great potential to improve spectrum utilization by enabling dynamic access to the spectrum. A key challeng...
—We venture beyond the “listen-before-talk” strategy that is common in many traditional cognitive radio access schemes. We exploit the bi-directional nature of most primary c...
