Spectrum Sharing and Sensing for Future Broadband
Networks: The Cognitive Radio Technology
Call for Papers
A recent measurement campaign on spectrum utilization
promoted by the Federal Communication Commission
throughout the US has revealed that significant portions
of the electromagnetic spectrum are rarely exploited for
considerable intervals of time, thus paving the way to a
number of possibilities for increasing bandwidth
utilization among multiple users in shared radio networks.
The clue to improve spectrum utilization, as well as
efficiency, comes from communications systems exploiting
the so-called Cognitive Radio technology, which at the
physical layer, as well as at upper-levels of the network,
can adaptively and dynamically allow users to access radio
resources by switching among portions of unused bandwidth
in different intervals of time.
The cognitive radio technology is still in its infancy,
and many problems at a theoretical, as well as practical,
level have to be solved before this technology may be
fully exploited in next generation wireless networks.
The main aim of this special issue is to highlight
state-of-the-art techniques on the most recent research
advances in cognitive radio networks.
Topics of interests include, but are not limited to, the
following subject categories:
-Advanced algorithms on coding and modulation for software
radio and cognitive radio networks
-Cross-layer algorithms based on spectrum sensing
techniques
-Distributed algorithms for spectrum detection
-Information theory and performance limits of dynamic
spectrum access
-Multimedia communications through cognitive networks
-Physical-layer design of software radio and cognitive
radio transceivers
-Resource allocation for spectrum sharing in cognitive
networks
-Spectrum management in cognitive radio networks
-Reconfigurable low-complexity transceiver architectures
for channel adaptation in cognitive radio networks
-Radio test beds
-Regulatory policies on spectrum sharing for future
broadband networks
