This paper considers a scenario in which a secondary user makes opportunistic use of a channel allocated to some primary network. The primary network operates in a time-slotted ma...

—Dynamic spectrum access has been proposed as a means to share scarce radio resources, and requires devices to follow protocols that use resources in a proper, disciplined manner...

Abstract—In cognitive radio networks (CRNs), detecting smallscale primary devices, such as wireless microphones, is a challenging, but very important, problem that has not yet be...
In cognitive radio (CR) networks, multi-CR cooperation typically takes place during spectrum sensing, to cope with wireless fading effects and the hidden terminal problem. The use...
Abstract—We explore the performance tradeoff between opportunistic and regulated access inherent in the design of multiuser cognitive radio networks. We consider a cognitive radi...
