Abstract
The next frontier in wireless connectivity lies at the intersection of cognitive radio (CR) technology and machine learning (ML), where intelligent networks can provide pervasive connectivity for an ever-expanding range of applications. In this regard, this survey provides an in-depth examination of the integration of ML-based CR in a wide range of emerging wireless networks, including the Internet of Things (IoT), mobile communications (vehicular and railway), and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) communications. By combining ML-based CR and emerging wireless networks, we can create intelligent, efficient, and ubiquitous wireless communication systems that satisfy spectrum-hungry applications and services of next-generation networks. For each type of wireless network, we highlight the key motivation for using intelligent CR and present a full review of the existing state-of-the-art ML approaches that address pressing challenges, including energy efficiency, interference, throughput, latency, and security. Our goal is to provide researchers and newcomers with a clear understanding of the motivation and methodology behind applying intelligent CR to emerging wireless networks. Moreover, problems and prospective research avenues are outlined, and a future roadmap is offered that explores possibilities for overcoming challenges through trending concepts.
期刊介绍:
IEEE Communications Surveys & Tutorials is an online journal published by the IEEE Communications Society for tutorials and surveys covering all aspects of the communications field. Telecommunications technology is progressing at a rapid pace, and the IEEE Communications Society is committed to providing researchers and other professionals the information and tools to stay abreast. IEEE Communications Surveys and Tutorials focuses on integrating and adding understanding to the existing literature on communications, putting results in context. Whether searching for in-depth information about a familiar area or an introduction into a new area, IEEE Communications Surveys & Tutorials aims to be the premier source of peer-reviewed, comprehensive tutorials and surveys, and pointers to further sources. IEEE Communications Surveys & Tutorials publishes only articles exclusively written for IEEE Communications Surveys & Tutorials and go through a rigorous review process before their publication in the quarterly issues.
A tutorial article in the IEEE Communications Surveys & Tutorials should be designed to help the reader to become familiar with and learn something specific about a chosen topic. In contrast, the term survey, as applied here, is defined to mean a survey of the literature. A survey article in IEEE Communications Surveys & Tutorials should provide a comprehensive review of developments in a selected area, covering its development from its inception to its current state and beyond, and illustrating its development through liberal citations from the literature. Both tutorials and surveys should be tutorial in nature and should be written in a style comprehensible to readers outside the specialty of the article.
