This book was released on 2011-09-28 with total page 491 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cognitive radios (CR) technology is capable of sensing its surrounding environment and adapting its internal states by making corresponding changes in certain operating parameters. CR is envisaged to solve the problems of the limited available spectrum and the inefficiency in the spectrum usage. CR has been considered in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), which enable wireless devices to dynamically establish networks without necessarily using a fixed infrastructure. The changing spectrum environment and the importance of protecting the transmission of the licensed users of the spectrum mainly differentiate classical MANETs from CR-MANETs. The cognitive capability and re-configurability of CR-MANETs have opened up several areas of research which have been explored extensively and continue to attract research and development. The book will describe CR-MANETs concepts, intrinsic properties and research challenges of CR-MANETs. Distributed spectrum management functionalities, such as spectrum sensing and sharing, will be presented. The design, optimization and performance evaluation of security issues and upper layers in CR-MANETs, such as transport and application layers, will be investigated.

Book excerpt: This book provides an overview of the latest research and development of new technologies for cognitive radio, mobile communications, and wireless networks. The contributors discuss the research and requirement analysis and initial standardization work towards 5G cellular systems and the capacity problems it presents. They show how cognitive radio, with the capability to flexibly adapt its parameters, has been proposed as the enabling technology for unlicensed secondary users to dynamically access the licensed spectrum owned by legacy primary users on a negotiated or an opportunistic basis. They go on to show how cognitive radio is now perceived in a much broader paradigm that will contribute to solve the resource allocation problem that 5G requirements raise.

Download or read book Design and Analysis of Common Control Channels in Cognitive Radio Ad Hoc Networks written by Brandon Fang-Hsuan Lo and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Common control channels in cognitive radio (CR) ad hoc networks are spectrum resources temporarily allocated and commonly available to CR users for control message exchange. With no presumably available network infrastructure, CR users rely on cooperation to perform spectrum management functions. One the one hand, CR users need to cooperate to establish common control channels, but on the other hand, they need to have common control channels to facilitate such cooperation. This control channel problem is further complicated by primary user (PU) activities, channel impairments, and intelligent attackers. Therefore, how to reliably and securely establish control links in CR ad hoc networks is a challenging problem. In this work, a framework for control channel design and analysis is proposed to address control channel reliability and security challenges for seamless communication and spectral efficiency in CR ad hoc networks. The framework tackles the problem from three perspectives: (i) responsiveness to PU activities: an efficient recovery control channel method is devised to efficiently establish control links and extend control channel coverage upon PU's return while mitigating the interference with PUs, (ii) robustness to channel impairments: a reinforcement learning-based cooperative sensing method is introduced to improve cooperative gain and mitigate cooperation overhead, and (iii) resilience to jamming attacks: a jamming-resilient control channel method is developed to combat jamming under the impacts of PU activities and spectrum sensing errors by leveraging intrusion defense strategies. This research is particularly attractive to emergency relief, public safety, military, and commercial applications where CR users are highly likely to operate in spectrum-scarce or hostile environment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis describes how to design and analyze ad hoc cognitive radio networks. In a cognitive radio scenario which consists of primary users and secondary users, secondary users are allowed to opportunistically access the existing spectrum without adverse effect on primary users. A cognitive radio network is allowed to detect its communication environment, replace the parameters of its communication scheme to raise the quality of service for secondary users and decrease the interference to primary users. Alternatively, the other approach to implementing a cognitive radio network is to allow simultaneous transmission of primary users and secondary users, which is also termed as spectrum sharing. In this technique, a secondary transmitter can transmit while its maximum interference to the primary receiver is smaller than the predefined threshold. However, a secondary user must control its transmit power to get a reasonable transmission rate. In spectrum sharing approach, we maximize the ergodic capacity and minimize bit error rate under different constraints at the primary users. The effect of reducing channel side information at the secondary transmitter is discussed for both optimization problems. We will then extend the simple model to ad hoc cognitive radio network where higher number of links in primary and secondary networks exists. The interference from primary and other secondary transmitters were separately discussed. In a similar system model, we also analyze outage probability of secondary users under AWGN and Rayleigh fading channels, while applying Poisson distribution to accurately account for the spatial distribution of secondary users in a 2-dimensional plane. The explicit expressions are derived based on different parameters such as signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio threshold, path loss exponent, signal-to-noise-ratio in the absence of interference and density of secondary interferes. The obtained results can be used to design and implementation of new protocols in ad hoc networks such that the highest data rate can be transmitted from a source node to a destination node with the lowest bit error rate. The next part of this thesis is concerned with minimization of power transmission in co-channel femtocell networks in order to reduce the interference inflicted on the macrocell users while satisfying a target constraint on either the capacity or the BER. This minimization is applied in two different system models. We also prove that minimizing the transmit power can be utilized to further enhance energy efficiency in femtocell networks.

Download or read book Cognitive Radio Ad Hoc Networks written by Peng Hu and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cognitive radio is an important technology which aims to improve the spectrum resource utilization and allows a cognitive radio transceiver to detect and sense spectrum holes without causing interference to the primary users (PUs). As a result of the development of cognitive radio technology, the concept of cognitive radio ad hoc networks (CRAHNs) has recently been proposed in the literature, which aims to apply the cognitive radio to traditional ad hoc networks. However, this new network paradigm creates more research challenges than those in classical cognitive radio networks (CRNs). These research challenges in CRAHNs are due to the variable radio environments caused by spectrum-dependent communication links, hop-by-hop transmission, and changing topology. This study will focus on important research topics in spectrum management in scalable CRAHNs driven by local control, such as spectrum sharing, allocation, and mobility. To conduct this study, a local control approach is proposed to enable system-level analysis and protocol-level design with distributed protocols for spectrum sharing. In the local control approach, we can evaluate the system dynamics caused by either protocol-specific parameters or application-specific parameters in CRAHNs, which is hard to explore using existing methods. Moreover, combining the previous evaluations and scaling law analysis based on local control concept, we can design new distributed protocols based on the features of the medium access control (MAC) layer and the physical layer. In this study, the proposed research themes and related research issues surrounding spectrum sharing are discussed. Moreover, justification of the research has been made by experimental and analytical results.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [ANGLÈS] Recent studies have demonstrated a clearly visible fact in our environment: The boom of wireless networks traffic has made raise the need of more bandwidth, due to an increment of the usage of wireless resources; every time with more and more different devices. Otherwise, other studies show an inefficient occupation of radio electric spectrum inside commercial bands; that is, not all assigned channels are currently in use by their operators. UHF TV band is an example of this situation, compounded after analogue TV switching off. Putting two previous scopes together have induced a new evolution of wireless networks: Deploying a certain kind of devices able to operate at empty channels of commercial bands. This thesis shows a way for these wireless devices to find out empty channels of a certain band and geographical location. The way has been tried out at ETSETB TelecomBCN UPC Campus Nord facilities with successful expected results.

Download or read book Communication Protocols for Wireless Cognitive Radio Ad hoc Networks written by Kaushik Roy Chowdhury and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cognitive radio (CR) technology allows devices to share the wireless spectrum with other users that have a license for operation in these spectrum bands. This area of research promises to solve the problem of spectrum scarcity in the unlicensed bands, and improve the inefficient spectrum utilization in the bands reserved for the licensed users. However, the opportunistic use of the available spectrum by the CR users must not affect the licensed users. This raises several concerns regarding spectrum sensing, sharing and reliable end-to-end communication in CR networks. This thesis is concerned with the design and implementation of communication protocols for the multi-hop infrastructure-less CR ad-hoc networks (CRAHNs). In addition, it also addresses the critical issue of interference-free spectrum usage in specific ad-hoc architectures, such as, resource-constrained wireless sensor networks and wireless mesh networks that have high traffic volumes. The problems of spectrum management that are unique to CR networks are first identified in this thesis. These issues are then addressed at each layer of the network protocol stack while considering the distributed operation in CRAHNs. At the physical layer an algorithmic suite is proposed that allows the CR devices to detect and adapt to the presence of wireless LANs and commercial microwave ovens. A common control channel is designed that allows sharing of the spectrum information between the CR users, even when the available spectrum varies dynamically. A spectrum sharing scheme for mesh networks is proposed at the link layer that allows cooperative detection of the licensed users and fair utilization of the available spectrum among the mesh devices. The spectrum availability and route formation are then considered jointly at the network layer, so that the licensed users are protected as well as the CRAHN performance is maximized. Finally, we extend the classical TCP at the transport layer to ensure end-to-end reliability in a multi-hop CR environment.
