Flexible RF Front Ends Needed

88 MHz

5.8 GHz

Can I do this

with just one

RF front end?

Cognitive Radio: A Panacea for RF Spectrum Scarcity

RF MEMS Can Help!

A single RF front end

would not normally be

able to support a very

wide frequency range

of operations

Radio Frequency Micro-

Electro-Mechanical

Systems (RF MEMS) can

be used to “tune” the RF

front end to the

corresponding frequency Source: Wireless ICs and MEMS Laboratory,

RF MEMS

RF MEMS can be used to implement:

Antennas (e.g., fractal antennas)

Filters (e.g., tunable RF bandpass filters)

Oscillators

Real-time operations very difficult to support

Time needed to physically change configurations on the

order of seconds

Compared to the rate at which data is transmitted, this is

considered to be ages!

Electromagnetic Spectrum

What do you think of when you hear the word

“spectrum”?

Page 16: Alex Wyglinski  - IEEE VTS UKRI - Cognitive radio - a panacea for RF spectrum scarcity

Cognitive Radio: A Panacea for RF Spectrum Scarcity

Electromagnetic Spectrum

Electromagnetic spectrum is the medium upon which wireless

communications is realized

Only portions of spectrum are suitable for mobile

communications

3-30 Hz

Extremely low frequency (ELF)

30-300 GHz

Extremely high frequency (EHF)

Not desirable: low bandwidth, long propagation range

Not desirable: short propagation range, line-of-sight communication

30-3000 MHz

Desirable: High bandwidth, reasonable propagation range

Radio Frequency range

Cognitive Radio: A Panacea for RF Spectrum Scarcity

Opportunistic Spectrum Access

Opportunistic spectrum access (OSA) is a significant

paradigm shift in the way wireless spectrum is

accessed

Instead of PUs possessing exclusive access to licensed

spectrum, SUs can temporarily borrow unoccupied

frequency bands

SUs must respect the incumbent rights of the PUs with

respect to their licensed spectrum

OSA enables greater spectral efficiency and

facilitates greater user and bandwidth capacity

Page 27: Alex Wyglinski  - IEEE VTS UKRI - Cognitive radio - a panacea for RF spectrum scarcity

27

Cognitive Radio: A Panacea for RF Spectrum Scarcity

The utilization efficiency of “prime” wireless spectrum

has been shown to be poor

Cognitive Radio: A Panacea for RF Spectrum Scarcity

Several Possible Approaches

• Secondary transmission in licensed spectrum can be

classified into three categories:

– Cooperative Approach

• Primary and secondary users coordinate with each other regarding

spectrum usage

– Underlay Approach

• Secondary signals transmitted at very low power spectral density;

undetected by primary users

• e.g., ultra wideband (UWB)

– Overlay Systems

• Secondary signals fill in the spectrum unoccupied by primary users

Multicarrier Transmission Techniques for

Spectrally Opportunistic Communications

Multicarrier modulation is a variant of the

conventional frequency division multiplexing (FDM)

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM)

an efficient form of multicarrier modulation

In order to utilize unused portions of licensed

spectrum, several subcarriers can be turned OFF to

avoid interfering with the primary signals

Each subcarrier experiences flat-fading and hence

high data-rates are possible if several unused bands

of secondary spectrum are available

located within the vicinity

of a PU can be

Major Issue: Out-of-band Emission

Out-of-band (OOB) interference problem with OFDM-based

cognitive radios

Power spectral density of the transmit signal over one

subcarrier:

Mean relative interference to a neighboring legacy system

subband:

Cognitive Radio: A Panacea for RF Spectrum Scarcity

Several Solutions

Cancellation Carriers

Non-data bearing subcarriers whose phase and

amplitude values cancel OOB

Modulated Filter Banks

Attenuates OOB in stopband region

Combine cancellation carriers (CCs) with modulated

filter banks (MFBs) to attenuate OOB emissions

Security Issues

Page 46: Alex Wyglinski  - IEEE VTS UKRI - Cognitive radio - a panacea for RF spectrum scarcity

46

Cognitive Radio: A Panacea for RF Spectrum Scarcity

Motivation

Primary User Emulation (PUE) is a serious threat to

opportunistic spectrum access networks

Malicious secondary users can mimic spectral

characteristics of primary users to gain priority

access to wireless channels

Primary (licensed) users have the priority of using the

channel

All the secondary users have equal opportunity to use

the channel

Current Detection Techniques

Conventional techniques on their own are not

entirely up to the job!!

Simple energy detector

Significant probability of missed detection

Matched filter detector

Requires specialized hardware and software

Localization based detector

Can only be employed for stationary primary transmitters

with known coordinates

Page 49: Alex Wyglinski  - IEEE VTS UKRI - Cognitive radio - a panacea for RF spectrum scarcity

49

Cognitive Radio: A Panacea for RF Spectrum Scarcity

One Approach

Combine several techniques in order to detect the

presence of wireless signals as well as to classify

them:

Energy detection

Cyclostationary feature detection

Artificial neural network

Multilayer perceptron (MLP) employed

Cognitive Radio: A Panacea for RF Spectrum Scarcity

These Are Interesting Times!

Numerous advances in cognitive radio, dynamic

spectrum access, and software-defined radio have

recently occurred

Secondary access of digital TV spectrum

Ratification of IEEE 802.22, IEEE 802.11af standards

Today’s wireless landscape is quickly changing due

to new capabilities of wireless transceiver devices

Largely due to smaller, faster processing devices

resulting from applications such as smart phones

Page 56: Alex Wyglinski  - IEEE VTS UKRI - Cognitive radio - a panacea for RF spectrum scarcity

56

Cognitive Radio: A Panacea for RF Spectrum Scarcity

Still Room For Improvement

There still exists a substantial amount of research

that is needed to make future wireless devices such

as cognitive radio more reliable

Ensuring minimal interference to other wireless

transmissions

Enabling real-time decision-making and transmission

operations

Making RF spectrum access more reliable for everyone

involved
