This paper presents the performance evaluation of a common signal employed to enable coexistence between heterogeneous physical (PHY) layer designs in the Smart Utility Networks (SUNs). The coexistence mechanism, known as Multi-PHY Management (MPM) uses a common PHY signaling specification known as the Common Signaling Mode (CSM) to facilitate interference avoidance/mitigation among the three specified...
This paper addresses the issues of coexistence for cognitive radio networks including both the coexistence between primary users (PUs) and secondary users (SUs), as well as the coexistence among SUs. The coexistence between SUs and PUs addresses the interference from SUs to PUs, whereas, the coexistence among SUs addresses sharing of identified spectrum opportunity among SUs to achieve efficient spectrum...
In this paper, we propose an adaptive-power-control scheme for a cognitive radio system (CRS) in a Rayleigh fading channel. By allowing transmit power adaptation at the secondary user (SU) transmitter to maintain a constant output SNR to the SU receiver, this scheme maximizes the output SNR and limits the interference to a primary user (PU) within an interference constraint. To calculate this maximum...
An adaptive power control scheme for cognitive radio system (CRS) in Rayleigh fading channel is proposed. The transmit power of a secondary user (SU) is adjusted in Rayleigh fading to maximize the constant output signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) at an SU receiver while keeping the interference to a primary user (PU) under given constraints. To calculate the maximum constant output SNR at the SU receiver...
This paper addresses the transmit power control with multiple antennas. A theoretical comparison of transmit diversity and beamforming techniques in the presence of fading correlation at an antenna array and handoff is presented. The objective is to investigate transmit power of both system and investigate the effect of array perturbations that exist in practical applications of antenna arrays. The...
AbstraAbThis study addresses detection of primary users (PUs) for cognitive radio system (CRS) with distributed spectrum sensors (DSSs) in Rayleigh fading environment. Two sensing schemes using DSSs that employ energy detection (ED) are investigated as cooperative sensing and collaborative sensing. For the cooperative sensing, each DSS makes hard decision after sensing and transmits the information...
The function of a cognitive radio system (CRS) can be classified as cognitive engine (CE) and sensing. The CE fulfills spectrum analysis and decision making of spectrum access. The sensing function is realized by either a CR node or distributed spectrum sensors. In this paper, we propose a sensing architecture, which adds new functional entities, sensing controller (SC) and sensing information processor...
Recent studies on spectrum sensing for cognitive radio (CR) reveal that sensing based on single CR may not provide reliable information due to the fact that signals degrade as a result of fading and shadowing. Hence, spectrum sensing based on multiple CR has been considered. In this paper we investigate a distributed sensing based on multiple spectrum sensors where the sensors are located outside...
