Abstract—In decentralized cognitive radio (CR) networks, enabling the radios to establish a control channel (i.e., “rendezvous” to establish a link) is a challenging problem....
Establishing a control channel for medium access control is a challenging problem in multi-channel and dynamic spectrum access (DSA) networks. In the design of multi-channel MAC p...
—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...
— This paper presents an architecture for adaptive cognitive radio networks based on the concept of a “global control plane”. The proposed control architecture uses a predete...
—A joint congestion control, channel allocation and scheduling algorithm for multi-channel multi-interface multihop wireless networks is discussed. The goal of maximizing a utili...
