Offline Power Allocation and Spectrum Sensing Strategy in Energy-Harvesting Cognitive Radio Networks

Energy-harvesting cognitive radio network has emerged as a solution to increase energy and spectrum efficiency. In this thesis, we propose short-term offline optimal power allocation algorithms for multi-user energy-harvesting cognitive radio networks considering interference between secondary users. Assuming finite and rechargeable batteries...

Cooperative Spectrum Sensing Algorithms in WBAN

Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) is used for communication among sensor nodes operating on, in or around the human body in order to monitor vital body parameters and movements. A typical sensor node in WBAN should ensure accurate sensing of the signal from the body, carry out low-level processing of the sensor signal, and wirelessly transmit...
