Cognitive Wireless Communication Networks

this book offers a wide range of information on the subject. Topics covered include the fundamental challenges and issues in designing cognitive radio systems to the information-theoretic analysis of such systems, spectrum sensing and co-existence issues, adaptive physical layer protocols and link adaptation techniques for cognitive radio, orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDM) and ultra wide band (UWB)-based cognitive radio, different techniques for spectrum access by distributed cognitive radio, cognitive medium access control (MAC) protocols, decentralized learning-based dynamic spectrum access methods as well as macroeconomic models for spectrum management in cognitive radio.
