—We present a new routing metric for multi-rate multi-radio mesh networks, which takes into account both contention for the shared wireless channel and rate diversity in multi-ra...
A radio network is described for configuring, monitoring, and diagnosing the components of a computer system. Such a network offers several advantages: (a) it improves the robustn...
Cognitive radios (CR) have the ability to dynamically adapt to local spectrum availability. In a network comprised of CR-enabled devices, layer-2 auto-configuration involves deter...
The existing research on security issues in cognitive radio networks mainly focuses on attack and defense in individual network layers. However, the attackers do not necessarily re...
Abstract—Recent studies have been conducted to indicate the ineffective usage of licensed bands due to the static spectrum allocation. In order to improve the spectrum utilizatio...
