This paper studies interference alignment scheme and minimum mean square error (MMSE) improvement in Internet of Things (IoT)-oriented cognitive systems, where IoT devices share the licensed spectrum by cognitive radio in spectrum underlay. Target to manage the inter-tier interference caused by cognitive spectrum sharing as well as ensure an MMSE at receivers, the interference alignment algorit...

Recently, Tarokh and others have raised the possibility that a cognitive radio might know the interference signal being transmitted by a strong primary user in a non-causal way, and use this knowledge to increase its data rates. However, there is a subtle difference between knowing the signal transmitted by the primary and the actual interference at our receiver since there is a wireless channe...

The interference channel with a cognitive relay consists of a classical interference channel with two sourcedestination pairs and with an additional cognitive relay that has a priori knowledge of the sources’ messages and aids in the sources’ transmission. We derive a new outer bound for this channel using an argument originally devised for the “more capable” broadcast channel, and show the ach...

This study investigates the capacity region of a three-user cognitive radio network with two primary users and one cognitive user. A three-user Cognitive Interference Channel (C-IFC) is proposed by considering a three-user Interference Channel (IFC) where one of the transmitters has cognitive capabilities and knows the messages of the other two transmitters in a non-causal manner. First, two in...

The cognitive interference channel models cognitive overlay radio systems, where cognitive radios overhear the transmission of neighboring nodes. Capacity for this channel is not known in general. For the Gaussian case capacity is known in three regimes, usually denoted as the “weak interference”, ”very strong interference” and “primary decodes cognitive”. This paper provides a new capacity res...

The capacity region of the interference channel inwhich one transmitter non-causally knows the message of theother, termed the cognitive interference channel, has remainedopen since its inception in 2005. A number of subtly differingachievable rate regions and outer bounds have been derived,some of which are tight under specific conditions. In thiswork we present a new u...
