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.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes a communication paradigm that could shape the future of wireless communication networks, Opportunistic Spectrum Access (OSA) in Cognitive Radio Networks (CRN). While several theoretical OSA approaches have been proposed, they are challenged by the practical limitations of cognitive radios: the key enabling technology of OSA. This book presents an unprecedented formulation of the OSA problem in CNR that takes into account the practical limitations encountered due to existing technologies. Based on such a problem formulation, this book presents a framework and protocol details implementing the analytically-optimized solution of this problem. Unlike the state-of-the-art of CRN implementations that typically target software define radios which are not suitable for real systems, this book describes the implementation of distributed OSA, using practical radio transceiver technologies. It provides a thorough characterization of the gains available to theoretical OSA approaches if the practical limitations are taken into consideration.
