This book gives comprehensive and balanced coverage of the
principles of cognitive radio communications, cognitive networks,
and details of their implementation, including the latest
developments in the standards and spectrum policy. Case studies,
end-of-chapter questions, and descriptions of various platforms and
test beds, together with sample code, give hands-on knowledge of
how cognitive radio systems can be implemented in practice.
Extensive treatment is given to several standards, including IEEE
802.22 for TV White Spaces and IEEE SCC41.
Written by leading people in the field, both at universities and
major industrial research laboratories, this tutorial text gives
communications engineers, R&D engineers, researchers,
undergraduate and post graduate students a complete reference on
the application of wireless communications and network theory for
the design and implementation of cognitive radio systems and
networks.
Each chapter is written by internationally renowned experts,
giving complete and balanced treatment of the fundamentals of both
cognitive radio communications and cognitive networks, together
with implementation detailsExtensive treatment of the latest
standards and spectrum policy developments enables the development
of compliant cognitive systemsStrong practical orientation -
through case studies and descriptions of cognitive radio platforms
and testbeds - shows how "real world" cognitive radio systems and
network architectures have been builtAdditional materials, slides,
solutions to end-of-chapter problems, and sample codes, are
available at www.elsevierdirect.com/companions
