Decision-making analysis in cooperative environments for decentralized cognitive radio networks.

Currently, there are saturated frequency bands that affect the quality of service for new users. Cognitive radio provides an alternative solution to this problem through dynamic spectrum access. However, the solutions proposed in the current literature are focused on a centralized network and do not allow demonstrating the behavior in a multi-user environment, much less the effect that cooperation between secondary users can have.

Spectral decision for cognitive radio networks in a multi-user environment.

Cognitive radio networks promote better spectral efficiency of the electric radio spectrum. The vast majority of current spectral decision models for cognitive radio networks evaluate their performance based on a single secondary user. In reality, the network can experience multiple requests from spectral opportunities.
