This paper considers a downlink cognitive radio (CR) network where one secondary user (SU) and one primary user (PU) share the same base station (BS). The spectrum of interest is divided into a set of independent, orthogonal subchannels. The communication of the PU is of high priority and the quality of service (QoS) is guaranteed by the minimum rate constraint. On the other hand, the communication of the SU is of low priority and the SU opportunistically accesses the subchannels that were previously discarded by the PU during power allocation. The BS assigns fractions ?? and 1 ?? of the total available transmit power to the PU and the SU respectively. Two power allocation schemes with opportunistic subchannel access are proposed, in which the optimal values of ??'s are also obtained. The objective of one scheme is to maximize the rate of the SU, and the objective of the other scheme is to maximize the sum rate of the SU and the PU, both under the PU minimum rate constraint and the total transmit power constraint. Extensive simulation results are obtained to verify the effectiveness of the proposed schemes.

Channel allocation is one of the important issues in the multichannel transmission. In the cognitive radio networks, channel allocation scheme should be designed to improve spectrum efficiency without interfering with the transmission of licensed users. In this paper, we propose a spectrum hole prediction based channel allocation scheme. The proposed channel allocation scheme, predicts spectrum hole by using the channel success rate, and limit the transmission of secondary user's data, and it reduces the interference to the primary user. The performance of proposed channel allocation scheme is evaluated by the computer simulation.

In cognitive radio (CR) systems, the secondary user (SU) performs the spectrum sensing to determine the presence of the primary user (PU) on the PU's frequency band. In practical cases, the PU would arrive and depart randomly in the sensing duration of the SU, which is referred to as the high traffic circumstance. In this paper, we propose a cyclostationarity-based spectrum sensing scheme for CR systems in high traffic circumstances. From numerical results, it is confirmed that the proposed scheme outperforms both the energy detector proposed for high traffic circumstances and the conventional cyclostationarity-based spectrum sensing scheme.

In order to utilize the licensed channel of cognitive radio (CR) when the primary user (PU) is detected busy, a benefit-exchange access mode based on cooperative communication is proposed to allow secondary user (SU) to access the busy channel through giving assistance to PU's communication in exchange for some transmission bandwidth. A holistic joint optimization problem is formulated to maximize the total throughput of CR system through jointly optimizing the parameters of cooperative spectrum sensing (CSS), including the local sensing time, the pre-configured sensing decision threshold, the forward power of cooperative communication, and the bandwidth and transmission power allocated to SUs in benefit-exchange access mode and traditional access mode, respectively. To solve this complex problem, a combination of bi-level optimization, interior-point optimization and exhaustive optimization is proposed. Simulation results show that, compared with the tradition throughput maximizing model (TTMM), the proposed holistic joint optimization model (HJOM) can make use of the channel effectively even if PU is busy, and the total throughput of CR obtains a considerable improvement by HJOM.

본 논문은 미래 군에서 CR (Cognitive Radio) 기술을 적용한 전투무선망에서의 효율적인 주파수 사용을 위한 정책기반 동적 채널 선정 구조를 제안한다. 전투무선망에서는 상용의 기지국과 같은 Coordinator가 존재하지 않기 때문에 효율적인 채널 사용을 위해서 각 상황마다 어떻게 대응할 것인가에 대한 고려사항이 있다. 이에 대한 해결책으로 정책기반의 동적 채널 선택 구조를 제안하며, 이는 각 상황에 따른 규칙이나 행동을 사전에 정책으로 정의하여 특정 Coordinator가 없더라도 해당 상황이 발생하면 사전 정의된 정책에 의해서 동적 채널 선택을 하는 것이다. 즉, 전투무선망에서 작전상황이나 전술통신환경의 변화에 따라 PU (Primary User)나 SU (Secondary User)를 동적으로 할당하는 것을 의미한다. 모의 실험결과 별도의 정책 없이 Random하게 동적 채널을 선택하는 기존기법보다 정책기반의 기법이 월등한 성능향상을 보였다.

This paper considers a wideband cognitive radio network which can simultaneously sense multiple narrowband channels and thus aggregate the detected available channels for transmission and proposes a novel cognitive radio system that exhibits improved sensing throughput and can save power consumption of secondary user (SU) compared to the conventional cognitive radio system studied so far. More specifically, under the proposed cognitive radio system, we study the problem of designing the optimal sensing time and power allocation strategy, in order to maximize the ergodic throughput of the proposed cognitive radio system under two different schemes, namely the wideband sensing-based spectrum sharing scheme and the wideband opportunistic spectrum access scheme. In our analysis, besides the average interference power constraint at primary user, the average transmit power constraint of SU is also considered for the two schemes and then a subgradient algorithm is developed to obtain the optimal sensing time and the corresponding power allocation strategy. Finally, numerical simulations are presented to verify the performance of the two proposed schemes.

The purpose of Electro-Optical Camera (EOC), the primary payload of KOMPSAT-1, is to collect high resolution visible imagery of the Earth including Korean Peninsula. EOC images will be distributed to the public or many user groups including government, public corporations, academic or research institutes. KARI will offer the online service to the users through internet. Some application, e.g., generation of Digital Elevation Model (DEM), needs a secondary data such as satellite ephemeris data, attitude data to process the EOC imagery. EOC imagery with these ancillary information will be distributed in a file of Hierarchical Data Format (HDF) file formal. HDF is a physical file format that allows storage of many different types of scientific data including images, multidimensional data arrays, record oriented data, and point data. By the lack of public domain softwares supporting HDF file format, many public users may not access EOC data without difficulty. The purpose of this research is to develop a browsing system of EOC data for the general users not only for scientists who are the main users of HDF. The system is PC-based and huts user-friendly interface.

무선 네트워크 환경에서 스펙트럼 자원을 효율적으로 활용할 수 있는 무선 인지 (Cognitive Radio, CR) 중 기지국이나 접속점과 같은 중앙 제어장치가 없는 분산형 무선 인지 네트워크 (Distributed Cognitive Radio Network, DCRN)에서는 부 사용자 (Secondary User, SU)들의 하드웨어적 한계로 인해 주 사용자 (Primary User, PU)들에게 인가된 스펙트럼의 모든 정보를 알 수 없다. 이를 극복하기 위해 SU들은 협력적 스펙트럼 감지 (Cooperative Spectrum Sensing)를 통하여 지역적인 스펙트럼 정보를 서로 교환하여 전체 스펙트럼의 정보를 파악한다. 본 논문은 효율적인 협력적 스펙트럼 감지를 위하여 PU 채널 상태의 비율을 사용한 정책 기반 감지 채널 선택 방법인 비율 기반 감지 정책 (Proportion-based Sensing Policy, PSP)을 제안한다. 각 SU가 PU의 채널 사용을 감지하고 PU 채널들의 idle 상태의 비율을 계산하고, 이 결과를 바탕으로 감지하는 PU 채널 변경 시, 높은 idle 비율을 갖는 PU 채널을 우선적으로 선택하여 감지되는 PU 상태가 idle 일 확률을 높여 효율적인 채널 감지를 가능하게 한다. 시뮬레이션 결과를 통하여 기존에 제안된 채널 감지 정책보다 비율 기반의 채널 감지 정책이 효율적으로 PU 채널들을 감지하는 것을 알 수 있다.

CR systems performs spectrum sensing operation to detect the appearance of primary users. However, since it is not feasible to do spectrum sensing and data transmission simultaneously, they typically operate alternatively in a time domain. There have been an effort(8) to investigate the optimal spectrum sensing duration for maximum throughput for the scheme with cooperative spectrum sensing. This is based on an assumption that the communication channels between each secondary user and the fusion center are ideal and does not consider the effects of transmission error. Motivated by this, we here model the channels as binary symmetric channels and examined its effect on the maximum throughput and the associated optimal sensing duration. Analysis shows that the performance degradation due to the transmission error is smaller for the case of using the AND fusion rule than for the OR fusion rule.

The centralized conference model has advantage of conference management and control. however it's scalability has been limited as performance degrades largely with increasing number of conference users. So new distributed conference models which improve scalability of centralized conference model have been suggested recently. In the distributed conference model. as conference users exceed a predefined maximum number, a new conference server is added to the conference dynamically. In this paper, We have proposed a new method which increases efficiency of conference event package processing that primary conference server should charge in the distributed conference environment. The primary conference server exchanges informations with each secondary conference servers and conference users by using conference event package. And from the conference information database it selects SIP(Session Initiation Protocol) UA(User Agent) which will share notification to the conference users, and transfers lists to each conference servers. The conference servers make the selected UAs share processing of conference event package, so loads of SIP signal processing decrease, and improve scalability of distributed conference model. The performance of our proposed model is evaluated by experiments.
