—In cognitive wireless networks where secondary users (SUs) opportunistically access spectral white spaces of primary users (PUs), there exists an inherent tradeoff between sensi...
—Spectrum sharing systems such as cognitive radio networks have drawn much attention recently due to their potential to resolve the conflict between increasing demand for spectr...
Cognitive radio is an enabling technology that allows unlicensed users to opportunistically access the spectrum in order to enhance the spectrum efficiency. In this paper, we cons...
We consider a multi-channel opportunistic communication system where the states of these channels evolve as independent and statistically identical Markov chains (the Gilbert-Elli...
—We aim to characterize the maximum link throughput of a multi-channel opportunistic communication system. The states of these channels evolve as independent and identically dist...
