Introduction - If you have any usage issues, please Google them yourself
TODAY’S wireless networks are characterized by a static
spectrum assignment policy. Recently, due to the increase
in spectrum demand, however, this policy is faced with
the spectrum scarcity at particular spectrum bands. On the
contrary, a large portion of the assigned spectrum is still
used sporadically leading to under-utilization of the significant
amount of spectrum [1]. The limited available spectrum
and the inefficiency in spectrum usage make it necessary to
develop a new communication paradigm to exploit the existing
wireless spectrum opportunistically. Cognitive radio technology
is proposed to solve these current spectrum inefficiency
problems
