Abstract
The literature of spectrum management in wireless CRNs is affluent and covers various theoretical aspects such as spectrum sensing, spectrum access, and spectrum sharing. The implementation issues and challenges of Opportunistic Spectrum Access have received far less research interest compared to the significant theoretical interest in such a promising communications paradigm. To the best of our knowledge, this book is the first to combine theory and practice as it:
-
Incorporates the practical limitations of contemporary radio transceivers into the theoretical problem formulation, and hence, the outcome solution is a framework that is not vulnerable to the implementation limitations.
-
Targets hardware with realistic features and capabilities (unlike existing implementations that target software-defined radios which provide seamless design flexibility at the expense of poor performance that cannot be used in real-life systems).
Hence, this book presents a first step towards realizing OSA and CRNs based on existing transceiver technologies without the need to wait for the currently-unavailable fully-capable cognitive radios. This book presents a bridge between both the academic and industrial communities interested in distributed ad-hoc CRNs. In this chapter, we overview the state-of-the-art of cognitive radio networking and Opportunistic Spectrum Access both from theoretical and practical points of view.
