Abstract--Wireless networks, especially mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) and cognitive radio networks (CRN), are facing two new challenges beyond traditional random network model: op...
Abstract--Cognitive radios (CRs) are devices that access spectrum opportunistically taking advantage of unused portions of licensed spectrum. Therefore, depending on the licensed r...
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...
In this paper, we consider the channel assignment problem in single radio multi-channel mobile ad-hoc networks. Specifically, we investigate the granularity of channel assignment...
Abstract--Proper admission control in cognitive radio networks is critical in providing QoS guarantees to secondary unlicensed users. In this paper, we study the admission control ...
