Improving spectrum utilization efficiency is a fundamental goal of dynamic spectrum access technology. The definition of spectrum holes determines how to detect and exploit them. Current definitions of spectrum holes are ineffective in exploiting spatial-temporal spectrum holes. In this paper, a novel definition of spectrum holes is proposed, in which throughput loss indicates the impact of secondary users on primary users. The definition specifies spectrum holes, unifies the impact of secondary users on primary users and is effective exploiting spatial-temporal spectrum holes. Theoretical analysis and numerical simulations show that the new definition proposed in this paper significantly improves the spectrum utilization efficiency.

전파자원을 이용한 다양한 무선 서비스에 대한 급증하는 수요는 더 많은 주파수 자원의 확보를 요구한다. 그러나 주파수 자원의 희소성과 고대역 주파수 발굴의 어려움을 감안하면, 늘어나는 전파자원의 수요를 충족시킬 수 있는 유일한 방법은 기존 전파자원의 이용 효율을 극대화시키는 것이다. 이러한 상황에서, 전파자원에 대한 초과 수요를 해결하기 위한 다양한 주파수 공유 방안이 최근 활발히 논의되고 있다. 이와 더불어, 주파수 공유의 실효성 검증과 무선시스템의 성과 예측을 위해, 주파수 이용효율 측정의 중요성이 높아지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 전파자원 이용효율의 합리적 측정 방법을 제안한다. 국제전기통신연합(ITU) 권고안을 토대로 전파자원 이용효율의 다양한 측정 방법을 고찰하고, 대기행렬모형을 이용한 전파 자원 이용효율 측정의 대안 모델을 제시한다. 이를 통해, 주파수 공유 시 전파자원의 이용효율이 어느 정도 증대되는지를 합리적으로 예측할 수 있다.

This paper investigates the spectrum hole utilization of cooperative schemes for the two-way relaying model in order to improve the utilization efficiency of limited spectrum holes in cognitive radio networks with imperfect spectrum sensing. We propose two specific bidirectional secondary data transmission (BSDT) schemes with two-step and three-step two-way relaying models, i.e., two-BSDT and three-BSDT schemes, where the spectrum sensing and the secondary data transmission are jointly designed. In the proposed cooperative schemes, the best two-way relay channel between two secondary users is selected from a group of secondary users serving as cognitive relays and assists the bi-directional communication between the two secondary users without a direct link. The closed-form asymptotic expressions for outage probabilities of the two schemes are derived with a primary user protection constraint over Rayleigh fading channels. Based on the derived outage probabilities, the spectrum hole utilization is calculated to evaluate the percentage of spectrum holes used by the two secondary users for their successful information exchange without channel outage. Numerical results show that the spectrum hole utilization depends on the spectrum sensing overhead and the channel gain from a primary user to secondary users. Additionally, we compare the spectrum hole utilization of the two schemes as the varying of secondary signal to noise ratio, the number of cognitive relays, and symmetric and asymmetric channels.

국내 FM 방송채널을 기존의 200 KHz 간격으로 배치 했을 때와 100 KHz로 배치 했을 때, 송신출력, 지형굴곡계수, 송신 안테나 실효높이를 변수로 하여 효율 적인 방송망을 규정하고 채널을 배치하여 동일한 조건에서 스펙트럼의 이용효율을 산출·비교하였다. 그 결과 100 KHz 간격으로 채널을 배치하게 되면 200 KHz에 비해 사용가능한 채널 수는 두배로 늘어나고 스펙트럼의 이용효율은 최소 35.5%에서 최대 100%까지 증가시킬 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.

The objective of this paper is to propose a system by means of which the utilization of radio frequency spectrum may be improved from the state of extreme inefficiency at the present time in Kazakhstan to a state of efficiency and equilibrium in the future. The main solutions to efficiently use radio frequency spectrum in Kazakhstan will be described in this paper. There are 'Spectrum Utilization, Spectrum Sharing and Reuse the Spectrum' in which the radio frequency can be propagated in wide range using smalt amount of spectrum, or broadcast several channels via one spectrum sharing. In order to embed these systems in practice it will be better to make modifications consider Government policy and geographical and social requirements.

In a CR (cognitive radio) network, channel selection is one of the important issues for the efficient channel utilization. When the CR user exploits the spectrum of primary network, the interference to the primary network should be minimized. In this paper, we propose a spectrum hole prediction based channel selection scheme to minimize the interference to the primary network. To predict spectrum hole, statistic properties of primary user's traffic is used. By using the predicted spectrum hole, channel is selected and it can reduce the possibility of interference to the primary user and increase the efficiency of spectrum utilization. The performance of proposed channel selection scheme is evaluated by the computer simulation.

This paper proposes a new spectrum forecasting (SF) model to estimate the spectrum demands for future mobile broadband (MBB) services. The model requires five main input metrics, that is, the current available spectrum, site number growth, mobile data traffic growth, average network utilization, and spectrum efficiency growth. Using the proposed SF model, the future MBB spectrum demand for Malaysia in 2020 is forecasted based on the input market data of four major mobile telecommunication operators represented by A-D, which account for approximately 95% of the local mobile market share. Statistical data to generate the five input metrics were obtained from prominent agencies, such as the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission, OpenSignal, Analysys Mason, GSMA, and Huawei. Our forecasting results indicate that by 2020, Malaysia would require approximately 307 MHz of additional spectrum to fulfill the enormous increase in mobile broadband data demands.
