Information-Centric Networking (ICN) is now reaching technological maturity after many years of fundamental research and experimentation. This document provides a number of deployment considerations in the interest of helping the ICN community move ...

In order to solve the problem of effective allocation of spectrum resources and provide an effective spectrum access method for the Internet of Things, a cognitive wireless system based on MCCDMA structure is proposed, and the performance of the system is ...

Device to Device (D2D) communication is one of the key enhancement of Long-Term Evolution (LTE) Advanced standard which is a precursor to fifth generation (5G) cellular standard. D2D has gained considerable attention due to several drawbacks associated ...

Cognitive Networks have been proposed to opportunistically discover and exploit licensed spectrum bands, in which the secondary users' (SU) activity is subordinated to primary users (PU). Depending on the nature of interaction between the SU and PU, ...

Two novel spectrum access schemes, a hybrid spectrum access scheme HSAS and a modified HSAS combining underlay mode and overlay mode, are proposed for a relay based cognitive radio CR network. The CR employs the underlay mode with imperfect channel ...

In cognitive radio applications, there are multiple different types of message queues. Existing queueing based works in underlay cognitive radio networks mainly focused on homogeneous packets. Therefore, we propose a new underlay scheme to deal with ...

This paper presents a framework that enables characterizing analytically the spectral efficiency achievable by device-to-device (D2D) communication integrated with a cellular network. This framework is based on a stochastic geometry formulation with a ...

Cognitive radio (CR) has been considered as a potential candidate for addressing the spectrum scarcity problem of future wireless networks. Since its conception, several researchers, academic institutions, industries, and regulatory and standardization ...

In this paper, an analytical performance study for multi-antenna Cognitive Radio (CR) systems is presented. The two most popular CR approaches, namely, the interweave and underlay system designs, are considered and based on the derived analytical ...

The dominate spectrum sharing paradigm of today is interference avoidance, where a secondary network can use the spectrum only when such a use is not interfering with the primary network. However, with the advances of physical-layer technologies, the ...

During disaster relief missions, it is essential to provide reliable communication between the different rescue teams and to the victims as well. Since a disaster is likely toe Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) are the best choice to reestablish ...

Content-based publish/subscribe has gained high popularity for large-scale dissemination of dynamic content. Yet it is highly challenging to enable communication-efficient dissemination of content in such systems, especially in the absence of a broker ...

In this work, inefficient spectrum usage problem which will lead to spectrum scarcity in future communications has been addressed. According to Federal Communications Commission, spectrum sharing is a technique to efficiently utilize the spectrum. We ...

In this paper, we provide capacity and outage probability analysis with different sensing results for three different transmission scenarios in the cognitive radio networks, i.e., overlay, underlay, and cooperative transmission of secondary users (SUs) ...

We study the SER performance in underlay cognitive radio (CR) systems comprising a secondary transmitter (ST), a secondary receiver (SR) and a primary receiver (PR). We assume that the ST, SR and PR are each equipped with a single antenna. Under the ...

When both primary and secondary systems are orthogonal frequency division multiplexing modulated and are non-cooperative, carrier frequency offset between the systems is inevitable to cause harmful interference. In this paper, we jointly optimize ...

Dynamic spectrum access is a technique to utilize the spectrum resources efficiently in a cognitive radio environment. To use spectrum efficiently various models were designed by researchers. Game theoretical models are few of the efficient techniques ...

How to improve the spectrum utility of the unlicensed uses (secondary users) without interfering the licensed spectrum holders' usage becomes a key issue in the cognitive radio system. In this paper, we consider an underlay cognitive radio system in ...

Event broker networks are P2P overlays constructed out of a few select nodes of the underlying physical network (aka underlay). Reliable event delivery on such networks requires the overlay to be highly available. While high availability is usually ...
