Without disrupting the primary user (PU) transmissions, the overlay model allows the secondary user (SU) to utilize opportunistically the idle sub-channels; the underlay model allows the SU to occupy the same sub-channels with PU. The proposed protocols are designed for maximizing the quality of experience (QoE) of CR users and switching dynamically between the overlay and underlay models. QoE is measured by the mean opinion score (MOS) rather than simply fulfilling the physical and medium access control (MAC) layer requirements. The simulations considering the file transfer and video stream services show that the proposed resource allocation strategy is spectrum efficient.展开更多

As the occupied band-width increases, however, its implementation becomes more and more difficult. In order to make it easier to achieve a UWB-OFDM system, a complexity-reduced Frequency diversity (F-diversity) scheme, Fre-quency-Time Block Code (FTBC), is presented in this paper. The FTBC halves the sampling rate required by other F-diversity techniques so as to cut down the cost of UWB-OFDM systems with F-diversity to a certain extent.展开更多

In particular, we construct a multiband spectrum sensing framework, and derive the probabilities of detection and false alarm taking the different subchannel gain into account. Furthermore, we formulate the multi- band sensing as a two-parameter optimization prob- lem under the sensing capability constrains and guaranteeing the QoS of the secondary user. Moreover, we develop a semi-analytical optimization scheme to achieve the optimal solution.展开更多
