Spectral efficiency of spectrum-pooling systems

چکیده
In this contribution, we investigate the idea of using cognitive radio to reuse locally unused spectrum to increase the total system capacity. We consider a multiband/wideband system in which the primary and cognitive users wish to communicate to different receivers, subject to mutual interference and assume that each user knows only his channel and the unused spectrum through adequate sensing. The basic idea under the proposed scheme is based on the notion of spectrum pooling. The idea is quite simple: a cognitive radio will listen to the channel and, if sensed idle, will transmit during the voids. It turns out that, although its simplicity, the proposed scheme showed very interesting features with respect to the spectral efficiency and the maximum number of possible pairwise cognitive communications. We impose the constraint that users successively transmit over available bands through selfish water filling. For the first time, our study has quantified the asymptotic (with respect to the band) achievable gain of using spectrum pooling in terms of spectral efficiency compared to classical radio systems. We then derive the total spectral efficiency as well as the maximum number of possible pairwise communications of such a spectrum pooling system. The work reported herein was partially supported by the projects GRACE and E2R2. This work was also supported by Alcatel-Lucent within the Alcatel-Lucent Chair on flexible radio at SUPELEC. Parts of this paper were presented at GlobeCom 2007 [1].

As the demand for sophisticated wireless mobile applications incorporating efficient modulation techniques is ever increasing, more bandwidth is needed to support these applications. However, bandwidth is a limited resource. Also, as the existing spectrum allocation policies of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) allow spectrum access to licensed users only, it has been proven by variou...
متن کاملEfficient Signaling of Spectral Resources in Spectrum Pooling Systems
Public mobile radio spectrum is a scarce resource while wide spectral ranges are only rarely used. Here, we consider a new strategy called Spectrum Pooling enabling public access to these new spectral ranges without sacrificing the transmission quality of the actual license owners. By temporarily leasing their spectrum during idle periods the license owners could tap new sources of revenue. We ...
