In this paper, we propose an aliasing-based distributed compressive spectrum sensing technique for Cognitive Radio (CR) networks. We firstly model the spectrum aliasing phenomenon as a linear projection from the ideal sampled spectrum to the sub-sampled spectrum. Then the necessary conditions for jointly reconstructing the spectrum without aliasing are provided. Rather than using separate compression device, the Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADCs) in our proposed method perform data compression as well as sampling. More important, with multiple receivers operating at sub-Nyquist sampling rates, the fusion centre can effectively recover the spectrum without aliasing.","PeriodicalId":198556,"journal":{"name":"2009 First UK-India International Workshop on Cognitive Wireless Systems (UKIWCWS)","volume":"257 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122712374","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

MSE-OFDM is a bandwidth efficient OFDM scheme, where a number of OFDM symbols are grouped together as a frame and protected by one single cyclic prefix (CP). This reduces the extent of redundancy caused by the CP and increases the bandwidth efficiency of the system. In the proposed scheme, a number of OFDM symbols from one user are grouped and one cyclic prefix is used for a group of symbols. Thus, we can get better spectral efficiency as compared to conventional OFDMA. The FFT size is also reduced, which improves the robustness to synchronization errors and reduces the PAPR.","PeriodicalId":198556,"journal":{"name":"2009 First UK-India International Workshop on Cognitive Wireless Systems (UKIWCWS)","volume":"99 12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128006732","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The focus is on attaining good outage performance as enabled by the use of OSTBC transmissions in both phases, along with a low complexity near-optimum receiver in the first phase, and physical layer network coding (PNC) in the second phase. Assuming perfect channel state information at the receiver(s) in both phases, we derive expressions for the probability distribution functions of the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for all links in a Rayleigh flat-fading scenario. More precisely, we derive an exact expression of the outage probability for the end-to-end transmissions. The accuracy of the derived outage expression is verified by simulation results. We also demonstrate the impacts of channel asymmetry on the outage behavior. Numerical results show that the proposed scheme provides good performance under symmetric channel conditions.","PeriodicalId":198556,"journal":{"name":"2009 First UK-India International Workshop on Cognitive Wireless Systems (UKIWCWS)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130813547","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In a centralized power allocation scheme there is a centralized controller that has information about available spectrum holes and each cognitive user's channel state information. However, the overhead involved is very high. In an de-centralized power allocation scheme each cognitive user allocates power to different subcarriers based on local information, however maximum achievable throughput is less compared to the centralized approach. In this paper we present a hybrid approach based on a centralized controller that does not require information about instantaneous channel gains of cognitive radio and distributed controllers. We show that maximum achievable transmission rate of our hybrid approach is very close to the case of centralized power allocation with full knowledge of instantaneous channel gains but at a substantially reduced overhead cost.","PeriodicalId":198556,"journal":{"name":"2009 First UK-India International Workshop on Cognitive Wireless Systems (UKIWCWS)","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131075368","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We assume that the secondary user transmits simultaneously with the primary user over the same channel instead of waiting for an idle channel which is traditional for a cognitive radio. The cognitive relay has access to the messages transmitted by both the users and assists them in communicating the messages successfully to their respective destinations. We address the problem of analyzing fading MIMO cognitive relay channels and derive the expressions for mutual information received at the primary and secondary receivers in both the cases when cognitive relay is present or not. We focus on the investigation of outage behavior of proposed model. Our results show that in the presence of cognitive relay, not only both the primary and secondary users are able to communicate with corresponding receivers compensating interferences created at their receivers, but also the outage performance of primary and secondary users are improved due to the additional diversity obtained via relaying.","PeriodicalId":198556,"journal":{"name":"2009 First UK-India International Workshop on Cognitive Wireless Systems (UKIWCWS)","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128456813","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The problem is formulated as a revenue maximization problem and a framework is presented that is capable of adequately solving a class of problem where resources are shared in radio environment. Primary users (PUs) exchange channels dynamically and based on the availability of idle channels at neighbors. Secondary users (SUs) of different classes form a mesh network and rent a spectrum from primary users. For such cognitive wireless mesh networks, the main challenge facing a PU is to satisfy the following conflicting objectives: maximizing its total revenue, maintaining its quality of service (QoS) (that degrades due to renting its spectrum to SUs) and reducing secondary user delay times. In this work machine learning paradigm is presented as a means for extracting the optimal control policy for spectrum sharing. To obtain different requirements, the objective function is defined to maximize the total revenue gained by primary users. Value iteration algorithm is applied to find an optimal control policy that maximizes the difference between reward and cost (revenue). Performance evaluation of the proposed spectrum sharing approach shows that the scheme is able to find an efficient trade-off between PUs revenue and SUs delay.","PeriodicalId":198556,"journal":{"name":"2009 First UK-India International Workshop on Cognitive Wireless Systems (UKIWCWS)","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116002816","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
