Relay-Assisted Primary and Secondary Transmissions in Cognitive Radio Networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
We assume a set of cognitive relay nodes that assists both primary and secondary transmissions in a time-slotted cognitive radio networks. To regulate the channel access of the various nodes in the network, we propose an ...
Performance of eigenvalue based spectrum sensing in full-duplex cognitive radio networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Spectrum sensing is a key component in any cognitive radio network. Recently full-duplex communication, i.e., the ability to transmit and receive at the same time at the same frequency, has become feasible. Residual self ...
Underlay cognitive radio: What is the impact of carrier aggregation and relaying on throughput?
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we investigate joint relay selection and optimal power allocation, as a means to maximize the achievable rate of an underlay cooperative cognitive radio with carrier aggregation, taking into account the ...
Protocol design and stability analysis of cooperative cognitive radio users
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
A single cognitive radio transmitter-receiver pair shares the spectrum with two primary users communicating with their respective receivers. Each primary user has a local traffic queue, whereas the cognitive user has three ...
Optimization of probability of error in collaborative spectrum sensing of time-limited cognitive radio networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
We study the probability of error optimization problem in collaborative spectrum sensing (CSS) with limited time resources in cognitive radio (CR) networks. The frame structures for sensing and data transmission, if the ...
A sparsity-aware approach for NBI estimation and mitigation in large cognitive radio networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Underlay cognitive networks should follow strict interference thresholds to operate in parallel with primary networks. This constraint limits their transmission power and eventually the coverage area. Therefore, in this ...
On the Higher Order Statistics of the Channel Capacity in Dispersed Spectrum Cognitive Radio Systems Over Generalized Fading Channels
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
This work is devoted to the study of dispersed spectrum cognitive radio (CR) systems over independent and nonidentically distributed (i.n.i.d.) generalized fading channels. More specifically, this is performed in terms of ...
Maximum Secondary Stable Throughput of a Cooperative Secondary Transmitter-Receiver Pair: Protocol Design and Stability Analysis
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we investigate the impact of cooperation between a secondary transmitter-receiver pair and a primary transmitter on the maximum stable throughput of the primary-secondary network. Each transmitter, either ...
Sparsity-aware narrowband interference mitigation and subcarriers selection in OFDM-based cognitive radio networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, the performance of an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing overlay cognitive radio network with subcarrier selection schemes is investigated. We propose three subcarrier selection techniques that reduce ...
Energy-Aware Cooperative Wireless Networks with Multiple Cognitive Users
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we study and analyze cooperative cognitive radio networks with arbitrary number of secondary users (SUs). Each SU is considered a prospective relay for the primary user (PU) besides having its own data ...
