—Online spectrum auctions offer ample flexibility for bidders to request and obtain spectrum on-the-fly. Such flexibility, however, opens up new vulnerabilities to bidder mani...

We present several new methods for coding of spectrum coefficients in embedded audio codecs. In audio codecs, the spectrum is often divided in sub-bands, and quantized using a vec...
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...
In cognitive radio networks, a cognitive source node requires two essential phases to complete a cognitive transmission process: the phase of spectrum sensing with a certain time d...
The spectrum scarcity problem emerged in recent years, due to unbalanced utilization of RF (radio frequency) bands in the current state of wireless spectrum allocations. Spectrum a...
In cognitive radio networks, each cognitive transmission process typically requires two phases: the spectrum sensing phase and data transmission phase. In this paper, we investiga...
Abstract—Cognitive radio (CR) technology enables the opportunistic use of the vacant licensed frequency bands, thereby improving the spectrum utilization. However, the CR operati...
—We consider a wireless cognitive radio network in which a set of secondary users (SUs) opportunistically utilize the wireless spectrum licensed to the primary users (PUs) to tra...
—Various spectrum management schemes have been proposed in recent years to improve the spectrum utilization in cognitive radio networks. However, few of them have considered the ...

—Opportunistic spectrum access creates the opening of under-utilized portions of the licensed spectrum for reuse, provided that the transmissions of secondary radios do not cause...
