AI Article Synopsis
- The task of Mobile Cognitive Radio Networks (MCRN) is to release frequency channels when a Primary User (PU) is detected, shifting to another available channel or stopping service if none exist.
- The proposed system utilizes Gaussian Minimum Shift Keying (GMSK) and Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) technologies, analyzing signals in the frequency domain with the Rényi-Entropy method to effectively distinguish between noise and PU signals without needing prior knowledge.
- Experimental results show that using a Software Defined Radio (SDR) with GNURadio and OpenBTS, the Rényi-Entropy detector outperforms conventional energy detection, achieving over 96% detection probability in challenging environments.
Article Abstract
A very important task in Mobile Cognitive Radio Networks (MCRN) is to ensure that the system releases a given frequency when a Primary User (PU) is present, by maintaining the principle to not interfere with its activity within a cognitive radio system. Afterwards, a cognitive protocol must be set in order to change to another frequency channel that is available or shut down the service if there are no free channels to be found. The system must sense the frequency spectrum constantly through the energy detection method which is the most commonly used. However, this analysis takes place in the time domain and signals cannot be easily identified due to changes in modulation, power and distance from mobile users. The proposed system works with Gaussian Minimum Shift Keying (GMSK) and Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) for systems from Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) to 5G systems, the signals are analyzed in the frequency domain and the Rényi-Entropy method is used as a tool to distinguish the noise and the PU signal without prior knowledge of its features. The main contribution of this research is that uses a Software Defined Radio (SDR) system to implement a MCRN in order to measure the behavior of Primary and Secondary signals in both time and frequency using GNURadio and OpenBTS as software tools to allow a phone call service between two Secondary Users (SU). This allows to extract experimental results that are compared with simulations and theory using Rényi-entropy to detect signals from SU in GMSK and OFDM systems. It is concluded that the Rényi-Entropy detector has a higher performance than the conventional energy detector in the Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) and Rayleigh channels. The system increases the detection probability (P) to over 96% with a Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) of 10dB and starting 5 dB below energy sensing levels.

Understanding the nuanced emotions and points of view included in user-generated content remains challenging, even though text data analysis for mental health is a crucial instrument for assessing emotional well-being. Most current models neglect the significance of integrating viewpoints in comprehending mental health in favor of single-task learning. To offer a more thorough knowledge of mental health, in this study, we present an Opinion-Enhanced Hybrid BERT Model (Opinion-BERT), built to handle multi-task learning for simultaneous sentiment and status categorization.

Background: Research has shown that engaging in a range of healthy lifestyles or behavioral factors can help reduce the risk of developing dementia. Improved knowledge of modifiable risk factors for dementia may help engage people to reduce their risk, with beneficial impacts on individual and public health. Moreover, many guidelines emphasize the importance of providing education and web-based resources for dementia prevention.

Language policy plays a pivotal role in sustaining language behaviors and transforming language ideologies into practices. While the analysis of language policies in international organizations has received increasing attention, the evolution of language policies in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) has been understudied. Existing research on ASEAN's language policies has concentrated on its official language, often overlooking the language practices and ideologies embedded within these policies.
