—In cognitive radio (CR) networks, licensed spectrum that can be shared by secondary users (SUs) is always restricted by the needs of primary users (PUs). Although channel aggreg...
We address the connectivity of large-scale ad hoc cognitive radio networks, where secondary users exploit channels temporarily and locally unused by primary users and the existenc...
Abstract—We consider a cognitive radio network where multiple secondary users (SUs) contend for spectrum usage, using random access, over available primary user (PU) channels. Ou...
Abstract— Cooperation is increasingly regarded as a key technology for tackling the challenges of a practical implementation of cognitive radio. In this paper, we first give a b...

—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...
