—Cognitive radio is a promising paradigm to achieve efficient utilization of spectrum resource by allowing the unlicensed users (i.e., secondary users, SUs) to access the licens...
Effective spectrum sensing is a critical prerequisite for multi-channel cognitive radio (CR) networks, where multiple spectrum bands are sensed to identify transmission opportuniti...
—We consider opportunistic communications over multiple channels where the state (“good” or “bad”) of each channel evolves as independent and identically distributed Mark...
—We aim to characterize the maximum link throughput of a multi-channel opportunistic communication system. The states of these channels evolve as independent and identically dist...
Abstract—Temporal Dynamic Spectrum Access (DSA) in Cognitive Radio Networks exploits time gaps between the primary users transmissions. In this work, the fundamental performance ...
