— In cognitive radio networks (CRNs), effective and efficient channel exploitation is imperative for unlicensed secondary users to seize available network resources and improve ...
In this paper, we propose the concept of centralized dynamic spectrum leasing (C-DSL), in which multiple primary users belonging to the same primary system participate in the spect...

In this paper, optimal multi-channel cooperative sensing strategies in cognitive radio networks are investigated. A cognitive radio network with multiple potential channels is cons...
Abstract--We propose a cognitive radio system in fading environments where the secondary sender opportunistically violates the secondary-to-primary (S-P) interference power limit. ...
Abstract--In this paper we investigate the opportunistic spectrum access in temporal domain where a secondary user shares a radio channel with a primary user during the OFF period ...
We consider decentralized multiantenna cognitive radio networks where the secondary (cognitive) users are granted simultaneous spectrum access along with the license-holding (prima...
In this paper, we model the hierarchical structures inherent in cognitive radio networks as the priority queueing system in which primary users interact with the highest priority a...
Primary user emulation attack in multichannel cognitive radio systems is discussed. An attacker is assumed to be able to send primary-user-like signals during spectrum sensing peri...
In a cognitive radio network, the full-spectrum is usually divided into multiple channels. However, due to the hardware and energy constraints, a cognitive user (also called second...
We propose a spectrum decision protocol resilient to primary user emulation attacks (PUEA) in dynamic spectrum access networks. PUEA is a type of denial-of-service attack that can ...
