In a cognitive radio system the failure of secondary user (SU) transceivers to promptly vacate the channel can introduce significant access-latency for primary or high-priority users (PU). In conventional cognitive radio systems, the…

In this paper, the problem of joint design of Spectrum Sensing (SS) and receive beamforming (BF), with reference to a Cognitive Radio (CR) system, is considered. The aim of the proposed design is the maximization of the achievable average…
In cognitive radio networks (CRN), Out-of-Band (OoB) spectrum sensing provides seamless communication. Cognitive radio (CR) users, so called secondary users (SUs), should avoid interference with primary users (PUs), the owner of the…
