Spectrum inference, also known as spectrum prediction in the literature, is a promising
technique of inferring the occupied/free state of radio spectrum from already …

Opportunistic spectrum access (OSA) that allows secondary users to independently search
for and exploit instantaneous spectrum availability is considered. The design objective is to …

We design distributed spectrum sensing and access strategies for opportunistic spectrum
access (OSA) under an energy constraint on secondary users. Both the continuous and the …

In cognitive wireless networks where secondary users (SUs) opportunistically access
spectral white spaces of primary users (PUs), there exists an inherent tradeoff between …

Cognitive radio offers a promising technology to mitigate spectrum shortage in wireless
communications. It enables secondary users (SUs) to opportunistically access low …

We consider a multichannel Cognitive Radio Network (CRN), where secondary users
sequentially sense channels for opportunistic spectrum access. In this scenario, the Channel …

Inefficient spectrum usage is a crucial issue in wireless communications and methods for
dynamic spectrum access are proposed based on spectrum sensing methodology of the …

We study optimal transmission strategies in multi-channel cognitive radio networks where
one secondary user (SU) opportunistically accesses multiple orthogonal channels that are …

The listen-Before-Talk (LBT) strategy has been prevalent in cognitive radio networks where
secondary users opportunistically access under-utilized primary band. To minimize the …

Opportunistic spectrum access presents a new approach to wireless spectrum utilization and
management. In this paper, we propose a non-cooperative based OSA approach: learning …
