Cognitive radio networks (CRNs) have emerged as an essential technology to enable
dynamic and opportunistic spectrum access which aims to exploit underutilized licensed …

Integrating cognitive radio (CR) with traditional wireless networks is helping solve the
problem of spectrum scarcity in an efficient manner. The opportunistic and dynamic …

This paper proposes a novel technique that exploits spectrum occupancy behaviors inherent
to wideband spectrum access to enable efficient cooperative wideband spectrum sensing …

Given the rise in cyber threats to networked systems, coupled with the proliferation of AI
techniques and enhanced processing capabilities, Denial of Service (DoS) attacks are …

Cooperative spectrum sensing, despite its effectiveness in enabling dynamic spectrum
access, suffers from location privacy threats, merely because secondary users (SUs)'sensing …

Deployment of 5th generation (5G) mobile communication technology is setting the stage for
the next generation of radio spectrum management. New spectrum sharing arrangements …

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has released the 3.5 GHz (3550-3700
MHz) band, termed Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS), for shared broadband use …

In this paper, we propose new location privacy preserving schemes for database-driven
cognitive radio networks that protect secondary users'(SUs) location privacy while allowing …

Cooperative spectrum sensing (CSS) has the ability to accurately identify the activities of the
primary users (PUs). As the secondary users'(SUs) sensing performance is disturbed in the …

Spectrum database-based cognitive radio networks (CRNs) have become the de facto
approach for enabling unlicensed secondary users (SUs) to identify spectrum vacancies in …
