It is shown that, particularly for terrestrial cellular telephony, the interference-suppression feature of CDMA (code division multiple access) can result in a many-fold increase in capacity over analog and even over competing digital techniques. A single-cell system, such as a hubbed satellite network, is addressed, and the basic expression for capacity is developed. The corresponding expressions for a multiple-cell system are derived. and the distribution on the number of users supportable per cell is determined. It is concluded that properly augmented and power-controlled multiple-cell CDMA promises a quantum increase in current cellular capacity. >

On the capacity of a cellular CDMA system

The ever-increasing demand for higher data rates in wireless communications in the face of limited or underutilized spectral resources has motivated the introduction of cognitive radio. Traditionally, licensed spectrum is allocated over relatively long time periods and is intended to be used only by licensees. Various measurements of spectrum utilization have shown substantial unused resources in frequency, time, and space [1], [2]. The concept behind cognitive radio is to exploit these underutilized spectral resources by reusing unused spectrum in an opportunistic manner [3], [4]. The phrase cognitive radio is usually attributed to Mitola [4], but the idea of using learning and sensing machines to probe the radio spectrum was envisioned several decades earlier (cf., [5]).

Spectrum Sensing for Cognitive Radio : State-of-the-Art and Recent Advances

In this chapter we deal with the following nonlinear fractional programming problem: 

$$P:\mathop{{\max }}\limits_{{x \in s}} q(x) = (f(x) + \alpha )/((x) + \beta )$$

where f, g: R n → R, α, β ∈ R, S ⊆ R n . To simplify things, and without restricting the generality of the problem, it is usually assumed that, g(x) + β + 0 for all x ∈ S,S is non-empty and that the objective function has a finite optimal value.

Due to the under-utilization problem of the allocated radio spectrum, cognitive radio (CR) communications have recently emerged as a reliable and effective solution. Among various network models, this survey paper focuses on the enabling techniques for interweave CR networks which have received great attention from standards perspective due to its reliability to achieve the required quality-of-service. Spectrum sensing provides the essential information to enable this interweave communications in which primary and secondary users are not allowed to access the medium concurrently. Several researchers have already considered various aspects to realize efficient techniques for spectrum sensing. In this direction, this survey paper provides a detailed review of the state-of-the-art related to the application of spectrum sensing in CR communications. Starting with the basic principles and the main features of interweave communications, this paper provides a classification of the main approaches based on the radio parameters. Subsequently, we review the existing spectrum sensing works applied to different categories such as narrowband sensing, narrowband spectrum monitoring, wideband sensing, cooperative sensing, practical implementation considerations for various techniques, and the recent standards that rely on the interweave network model. Furthermore, we present the latest advances related to the implementation of the legacy spectrum sensing approaches. Finally, we conclude this survey paper with some suggested open research challenges and future directions for the CR networks in next generation Internet-of-Things applications.

Advances on Spectrum Sensing for Cognitive Radio Networks: Theory and Applications

This paper proposes a code division multiple access (CDMA) time division duplex (TDD) system for wireless multimedia services with traffic unbalance between uplink and downlink. In the proposed system, the number of uplink time slots in a TDD frame differs from that of downlink. Moreover, the difference can be reset by the network operator according to the traffic pattern. We evaluate the performance of the proposed system under multimedia environment using Markov analysis and computer simulation. The results show that the frequency utilization is maximized even when the uplink and downlink traffic volumes are unbalanced. This, in turn, reduces drastically the blocking rate of multimedia calls (connections) in the proposed system compared with that in the traditional CDMA systems where the uplink and downlink use equal bandwidth.

Slotted ALOHA is widely used in local wireless communications not only by itself as a multiple access protocol but also as a component in many reservation protocols. The paper suggests a very simple backoff scheme for slotted ALOHA and evaluates its performance in local wireless environments. The authors analyze the system capacity in full load conditions and the throughput-delay characteristics in underload conditions. They conduct a computer simulation to evaluate the system performance in transient-state. They also give a protocol parameter value which is highly recommendable from the practical viewpoint. As an application example, they examine the packet reservation multiple access (PRMA) system with the suggested backoff scheme and compare its performance with that of the original PRMA system. >

The call admission control (CAC) belongs to the category of resource management. Since the radio spectrum is very scarce resource, CAC is one of the most important engineering issues for mobile communications. In this paper, we propose a CAC scheme for direct sequence code-division multiple-access cellular systems supporting mobile multimedia communications services. There are multiple call classes in multimedia services and the required signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) varies with call classes. Call admission decision in the proposed scheme is based on SIR measurement. We take account of the traffic asymmetry between uplink and downlink, which is the most important characteristic of multimedia traffic. In addition, the proposed scheme guarantees the priority of handoff call requests over new call requests. We evaluate the performance of the proposed scheme using Markov analysis. The performance measures which we focus on are the system throughput and the blocking probabilities of handoff calls and new calls. The outage probability of a call in progress is also calculated, which is the probability that the measured bit energy-to-noise density ratio of the call is smaller than the required value for maintaining adequate transmission quality. We present some numerical examples with practically meaningful parameter values and, as a result, show that the proposed CAC scheme can operate well in the mobile multimedia systems such as the International Mobile Telecommunications-2000 (IMT-2000) systems.

In designing a cognitive radio sensor network (CRSN), we need to take account of energy both efficiency and primary user (PU) protection since the CRSN consumes additional energy to support CR functionality such as channel sensing and switching, which can shorten the network lifetime. In this paper, we propose a new channel management scheme for CRSNs, which heightens the energy efficiency while not greatly disturbing a PU. The CRSN with the proposed scheme adaptively selects its operation mode among channel sensing, channel switching, and data transmission/reception, according to the channel-sensing outcome. Considering that the sensing outcome can be erroneous due to noise uncertainty, we design the proposed scheme on the basis of the partially observable Markov decision process framework. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme energy-efficiently operates while properly protecting a PU.

The traffic (load) asymmetry between uplink and downlink is a remarkable traffic characteristic in cellular mobile multimedia communications. The code division multiple access system with time division duplex mode (CDMA/TDD system), adopting unbalanced slot allocation between uplink and downlink, is a good solution for this traffic asymmetry. However, the level of traffic asymmetry may be significantly different from cell to cell. In this paper, we investigate a slot allocation strategy (DA strategy), by which each cell has its own slot allocation according to the level of traffic asymmetry. We compute the system capacity with DA strategy and find out the optimal slot allocation for the system. We also compare the maximum capacity to that with another strategy (SA strategy), by which all cells have the same slot allocation. As a result, this paper shows that the system with DA strategy outperforms the system with SA strategy in the aspect of capacity.
