Avoiding Spectral Congestion: An Enhanced Cognitive Radio Approach
نویسنده
چکیده
Currently, cognitive radio solves the problem of spectral congestion by load sharing wireless traffic across different licensed spectrum bands. However, it is thought that a more powerful approach would be to load share the traffic across both fixed and wireless access networks. It is thought that such an approach will be able to prevent spectral congestion for the foreseeable future for a significant number of users without having to resort to the relatively complex approach currently used by cognitive radio. However, this new approach is still the subject of ongoing research, so the main aim of this paper is to provide a conceptual understanding of how load sharing traffic across both fixed and wireless access could potentially enhance / simplify the spectral sharing approach currently used by cognitive radio.

Enhancing Spectrum Efficiency of Cognitive Radio waveforms Using SD-SMSE Framework
Spectrum overcrowding continues to present is a fundamental challenge for both military and commercial communications. Recent studies suggest that spectrum congestion is primarily due to inefficient usage rather than spectrum availability. Dynamic Spectrum Access (DSA) and Cognitive Radio (CR) are two techniques being considered to improve spectrum efficiency and utilization. Interest in Cognit...

Cognitive radio arises to be tempting solution to the spectral congestion problem by introducing opportunistic usage of the frequency bands that are not heavily occupied by licensed users. Spectrum sensing plays a crucial role in the cognitive radio technology to prevent damaging interference to the primary users and to reliably and quickly spot the white spaces in the spectrum and utilize the ...

The rapid growth of wireless devices and application has contributed to huge demand for licensed and unlicensed frequency spectrum. However, recent studies exhibits that restricted spectrum assignment policy results in congestion for spectrum utilization under which considerable portion of the licensed spectrum is severely under-utilized. To address this problem, Cognitive radio is a paradigm f...
