We consider an underlay cognitive radio network where the secondary user (SU) harvests energy from the environment. We consider a slotted-mode of operation where each slot of SU is used for either energy harvesting or data transmission.…
We consider an opportunistic cognitive radio (CR) system consisting of a primary user (PU), secondary transmitter (SUtx), and secondary receiver (SUrx), where SUtx is equipped with an electrically steerable parasitic array radiator (ESPAR)…
This paper studies the wireless spectrum sharing between a pair of distributed primary radio (PR) and cognitive radio (CR) links. Assuming that the PR link adapts its transmit power and/or rate upon receiving an interference signal from the…
This paper considers cooperative spectrum sensing algorithms for Cognitive Radios which focus on reducing the number of samples to make a reliable detection. We develop an energy efficient detector with low detection delay using…
In this paper, we present the case of utilizing interference temperature (IT) as a dynamic quantity rather than as a fixed quantity in an orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) based spectrum sharing systems. The fundamental…
We propose an energy-efficient network architecture that consists of ad hoc (mobile) cognitive radios (CRs) and infrastructure wireless sensor nodes. The sensor nodes within communications range of each CR are grouped into a cluster and the…
Spectrum sensing is a fundamental component of cognitive radio. How to promptly sense the presence of primary users is a key issue to a cognitive radio network. The time requirement is critical in that violating it will cause harmful…
In this paper, throughput and energy efficiency of cognitive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems operating under quality-of-service (QoS) constraints, interference limitations, and imperfect channel sensing, are studied. It is…
Cognitive relaying has been introduced for opportunistic spectrum access systems by which a secondary node forwards primary packets whenever the primary link faces an outage condition. For spectrum sharing systems, cognitive relaying is…
In this paper, we present a new cognitive radio (CR) scenario when the primary user (PU) operates under more than one transmit power levels. Different from the existing studies where PU is assumed to have only one constant transmit power,…
Cognitive radio (CR) technology enables an intelligent wireless communication system. CR provides an efficient solution for the inefficient spectrum utilization by allowing dynamic and opportunistic spectrum access. In designing CR…
This paper investigates power control and relay selection in Full Duplex Cognitive Relay Networks (FDCRNs), where the secondary-user (SU) relays can simultaneously receive data from the SU source and forward them to the SU destination. We…
In a cognitive radio (CR) network, CR users intend to operate over the same spectrum band licensed to legacy networks. A tradeoff exists between protecting the communications in legacy networks and maximizing the throughput of CR…
In this paper, a novel spectrum association approach for cognitive radio networks (CRNs) is proposed. Based on a measure of both inference and confidence as well as on a measure of quality-of-service, the association between secondary users…
Direct-conversion radio (DCR) receivers can offer highly integrated low-cost hardware solutions for spectrum sensing in cognitive radio systems. However, DCR receivers are susceptible to radio frequency (RF) impairments, such as in-phase…
A Cognitive Radio is a type of Software-Defined Radio (SDR) that automatically detects available wireless spectrum and adjusts its physical hardware, modulation, or protocol parameters to obtain optimal throughput, latency, and range. Much…
We study the performance of a cognitive system modeled by one secondary and one primary link and operating under statistical quality of service (QoS) delay constraints. We analyze the effective capacity (EC) to quantify the secondary user…
RF energy harvesting can be used to power communication devices so that perpetual operation of such devices can be ensured. We consider a RF energy harvesting underlay cognitive radio system operating in slotted fashion. The primary user…
A cognitive radio can operate as a secondary system in a given spectrum. This operation should use limited power in order not to disturb the communication by primary spectrum user. Under such conditions, in this paper we investigate how to…
With the advent of the 5th generation of wireless standards and an increasing demand for higher throughput, methods to improve the spectral efficiency of wireless systems have become very important. In the context of cognitive radio, a…
