Fifth generation (5G) cellular networks promise to support multi-radio access technologies
(multi-RATs) with low and high frequencies aiming at delivering good coverage, several …

Spectrum sharing between cellular operators in the future 5G networks is expected to be a
regular phenomena. The accounting of the sharing amount will be an important element for …

Regulators all around the world have started identifying the portions of the spectrum that will
be used for the next generation of cellular networks. A band in the mmWave spectrum will be …

Primary-secondary spectrum sharing is limited in terms of design space, and may not be
sufficient to meet the ever-increasing demand of connectivity and high signal quality. The …

Regulatory authorities have introduced exclusive licensing to recent shared spectrum
access between federal users and commercial operators to meet the demand of radio …

Link adaptation algorithms design for OFDM-based cognitive radio networks is a
challenging task. The main concern is to provide a high quality of service for the secondary …

Static spectrum allocation and secondary spectrum sharing are unlikely to sufficiently meet
the growing need for the radio spectrum due to continuous increase in the number of …

An incentive-based spectrum sharing (IBSS) market requires truthfulness on sharing. In such
a market where the government incentivizes cellular operators, a “Proof-of-Sharing (PoS)” …

Ensuring optimum spectral efficiency is a critical requirement for current wireless networks to
cope with the ever-growing flow of wireless data traffic, using limited spectral resources. As …

In recent years, the increase in the population of mobile users and the advances in
computational capabilities of mobile devices have led to an exponentially increasing traffic …
