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...
—Collaborative spectrum sensing has been regarded as a promising approach to enable secondary users to detect primary users by exploiting spatial diversity. In this paper, we con...
—The main focus of this paper is to present a performance limitation of collaborative spectrum sensing in cognitive radios with imperfect reporting channels. We consider hard dec...
We describe an opportunistic channel access scheme for cognitive radio-enabled secondary nodes (SNs). The proposed scheme uses the residual channel idle time distribution to estim...
Cognitive Radio (CR) technology constitutes a new paradigm to provide additional spectrum utilization opportunities in wireless ad hoc networks. Recent research in this field has ...
