Predictive channel selection: Practical implementation and a social-aware vision for spectrum use
Journal Title: EAI Endorsed Transactions on Cognitive Communications - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 10
Abstract
This paper demonstrates a predictive channel selection method by implementing it in software-defined radio (SDR) platforms and measuring the performance using over-the-air video transmissions. The method uses both long term and short term history information in selecting the best channel for data transmission. Controlled interference is generated in the used channels and the proposed method is compared to reference methods. The achieved results show that the predictive method is a practical one, able to increase the throughput and reduce number of collisions and channel switches by using history information intelligently. The method is developed further and a cellular assisted social-aware method that enables efficient use of D2D links is defined in the end of this paper.

Receiving more than data - a signal model, theory and implementation of a cognitive IEEE 802.15.4 receiver
Standard medium access schemes sense the channel immediately prior transmission, but are blind during the transmission. Therefore, standard transceivers have limited cognitive capabilities which are important for operati...
