주파수 자원을 효율적으로 이용하기 위한 기술인 인지무선통신(CR : Cognitive radio) 기술은 주파수 자원난을 해결하기 위하여 연구되고 있다. CR은 1차 사용자에 할당된 주파수를 2차 사용자가 이용할 수 있도록 한다. 그러나 무선채널에서는 페이딩과 음영지역의 영향으로 스펙트럼 센싱에 있어서 절충안이 필요해진다. 또한, 다양한 CR 시스템을 검출하고 구분하기 위해서 새로운 센싱 알고리즘이 필요하다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 워터마킹 기술을 이용한 스펙트럼 센싱 알고리즘을 제안하여, Kasami-sequence와 M-sequence를 워터마킹 시퀀스로 이용했을 경우의 검출 성능을 비교한다.

A cooperative spectrum sensing has been proposed to improve the sensing performance in cognitive radio (CR) network. However, cooperative sensing causes additional overhead for reporting the result of local sensing to the fusion center. In this paper, we propose a technique to reduce the overhead of data transmission of cooperative sensing for applying the quantum data fusion technique in cognitive radio networks by omitting the lowest quantized in the local sensed results. If a CR node senses the lowest quantized level, it will not send its local sensing data in the corresponding sensing period. The fusion center can implcitly know that a spectific CR node sensed lowest level if there is no report from that CR node. The goal of proposed sensing policy is to reduce the overhead of quantized data fusion scheme for cooperative sensing. Also, our scheme can be adapted to all quantized data fusion schemes because it only deal with the form of the quantized data report. The experimental results show that the proposed scheme improves performance in terms of reporting overhead.

급증하는 주파수 수요를 해결하기 위해 최근 FCC(Federal Communications Commission)에서는 스펙트럼 사용 효율을 높이기 위해 주파수를 공유하는 CR(Cognitive radio)를 적용하기로 하였다. 그리고 이러한 CR 시스템을 LTE 시스템에 적용하고자 CR 기술 중 스펙트럼 센싱 이론을 LTE 환경에 적용을 시켜 실험을 하여 성능분석을 하였다. 본 실험에 있어서 LTE 하향링크 OFDMA (Orthogonal frequency division multiple access) 신호를 센싱했고, 채널은 가우시안 채널로 가정하여 실험을 하였다. 또한 실험에 필요로 한 임계값(threshold)은 5%, 10%로 달리 적용하여 성능분석을 하였다. 그리고 추후 LTE 시스템에 CR 시스템 적용을 위한 향후 연구 방향에 대하여 논의를 하였다.

We propose self-encoded spread spectrum with two different iterative detection methods in multi-channel communication. The centralized iterative detection outperforms the iterative detection distributed over multiple channels. The results show that self-encoded spread spectrum with the centralized iterative detection is an excellent candidate for cognitive radio network.

Integration of multiple communication technologies in a smart grid (SG) enables employing cognitive radio (CR) technology for improving reliability and security with low latency by adaptively and effectively allocating spectral resources. The versatile features of the CR enable the smart meter to select either the unlicensed or the licensed band for transmitting data to the utility company, thus reducing communication outage. Demand response management is regarded as the control unit of the SG that balances the load by regulating the real-time price that benefits both the utility company and consumers. In this study, joint allocation of the transmission power to the smart meter and consumer's demand is formulated as a two stage multi-armed bandit game in which the players select their optimal strategies noncooperatively without having any prior information about the media. Furthermore, based on historical rewards of the player, a real-time pricing adaptation method is proposed. The latter is validated through numerical results.

In this paper, the optimal power allocation algorithm that minimizes the aggregate bit error rate (BER) of the secondary user (SU) in a downlink orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) based cognitive radio (CR) system, while subjecting to the interference power constraint and the transmit power constraint, is investigated under the assumption that the instantaneous channel state information (CSI) of the interference links between the secondary transmitter and the primary receiver, and between the primary transmitter and the secondary receiver is perfectly known. Besides, a suboptimal algorithm with less complexity is also proposed. In order to deal with more practical situations, we further assume that only the channel distribution information (CDI) of the interference links is available and propose heuristic power allocation algorithms based on bisection search method to minimize the aggregate BER under the interference outage constraint and the transmit power constraint. Simulation results are presented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms.

In a multi-hop CR (Cognitive Radio) network, each node find a path to destination node through several links. If links have the same frequency channel, there can be a serious interference among the links and it can reduce the network capacity. In multi-channel CR networks, each channel has different capacity according to the inter-link interference, and each channel has different traffic properties of primary users. In this paper, we propose channel scheduling scheme to minimize channel interferences and collision with primary users. Simulation results show the improvement of channel capacity and collision rate with primary users.

This paper proposes a new dynamic spectrum access (DSA) algorithm for cognitive radio networks. Once initialized, this algorithm works without the need of coordination overhead and hence can be used when no control channel is available. Secondary user (SU) lists and predetermined access control are used in this algorithm. We analyze the probability of no SU collision with primary user and the throughput of our proposed algorithm. Extensive simulations show that our algorithm outperforms the existing DSA algorithm in terms of both the aggregate throughput and the traffic distribution fairness. Furthermore, the validity of our analysis is confirmed by simulation results.

In cognitive radio or dynamic spectrum access networks, a rendezvous represents meeting two or more users on a common channel, and negotiating to establish data communication. The rendezvous problem is one of the most challenging tasks in cognitive radio ad hoc networks. Generally, this problem is simplified by using two well-known mechanisms: the first uses a predefined common control channel, while the second employs a channel hopping procedure. Yet, these two mechanisms form a life cycle, when they simplify the rendezvous problem in cognitive radio networks. The main purpose of this paper is to point out how and why this cycle forms.

Cognitive radio is a paradigm for wireless communication in which either network of wireless node itself changes particular transmission or reception parameters to execute its tasks efficiently without interfering with the licensed users. This paper represents a performance of the cognitive radio technology on dual polarized MIMO system using six-port receiver. Six-port technology is well known direct conversion receiver. In this paper, a six-port phase discriminator based polarization signal separation is shown. That is, the SER(Symbol Error Rate) performance is improved using polarization separator and simple receiver architecture is proposed applying six-port receiver. The six-port technology has priority to adapt changeable frequency system and variable environments for cognitive radio. In general, dual polarized MIMO system has good capacity and quality using polarization separator [1].
