Exploiting social features for improving cognitive radio infrastructures and social services via combined MRF and back pressure cross-layer resource allocation

Exploiting social features for improving cognitive radio infrastructures and social services via combined MRF and back pressure cross-layer resource allocation

The observed unbalance of spectrum utilization combined with the proliferation of wireless devices and the growth of online social networks call for a joint study of cognitive radios (CRs) and social networking towards improving the operation of both the underlying CR-capable communications infrastructures and of the corresponding dynamic networks. In this work, we address such issue and focus ...

Resource Allocation in Cognitive Radio

For the traditional wireless services, fixed spectrum allocation is the major spectrum allocation methodology. As per this methodology to avoid interference, different wireless services are allocated with different licensed bands. With various emerging wireless technologies, fixed spectrum allocation strategy has resulted scarcity in radio spectrum, due to the fact that most of the available sp...
