چکیده

Current allocation of the spectral bands to only licensed users leads to inefficiencies in spectrum utilization. Designing realistic cognitive radios that are capable of sensing spectrum holes is the key to solve this problem and to increase the capacity of next-generation wireless networks. In this paper, we propose convolutional neural networks for predicting the spectrum holes from a data set obtained via USRP software-defined radios [1]. Preliminary results show performance improvements over the previously proposed methods.

Deep Cooperative Sensing: Cooperative Spectrum Sensing Based on Convolutional Neural Networks

In this paper, we investigate cooperative spectrum sensing (CSS) in a cognitive radio network (CRN) where multiple secondary users (SUs) cooperate in order to detect a primary user (PU) which possibly occupies multiple bands simultaneously. Deep cooperative sensing (DCS), which constitutes the first CSS framework based on a convolutional neural network (CNN), is proposed. In DCS, instead of the...

Decision Support System for Age-Related Macular Degeneration Using Convolutional Neural Networks

Introduction: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is one of the major causes of visual loss among the elderly. It causes degeneration of cells in the macula. Early diagnosis can be helpful in preventing blindness. Drusen are the initial symptoms of AMD. Since drusen have a wide variety, locating them in screening images is difficult and time-consuming. An automated digital fundus photography...
