Abstract
A Cognitive Radio (CR) system can be visualised in Fig. 15.1 as a complicated wireless communication system that involves a virtual engine (soul) and a platform (body). The engine is implemented based on a number of logical arguments in order to reason and negotiate with other wireless systems, aiming towards the optimum utilisation of the spectrum while ensuring minimum disruption to existing wireless systems.
