Abstract—This paper considers an uplink time division multiple access (TDMA) cognitive radio network where multiple cognitive radios (secondary users) attempt to access a spect...
Abstract—This paper considers maximizing throughput utility in a multi-user network with partially observable Markov ON/OFF channels. Instantaneous channel states are never known...
