ADAPTIVE MODULATION FOR COGNITIVE RADIO

ITC/USA 2007 Conference Proceedings / The Forty-Third Annual International Telemetering Conference and Technical Exhibition / October 22-25, 2007 / Riviera Hotel & Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada / While investigating methods for more efficiently allocating the available spectrum researchers noticed that in many geographical locations, there are broad bands of frequencies that are lightly utilized. Such inefficiencies are inevitable with fixed spectral allocation rules. Cognitive Radios actively measure the spectral utilization and adapt their modulation, frequencies, bandwidths, power, etc. to take advantage of these lightly used “spectral holes” or “white spaces”. Much of the research work in cognitive radios has not taken into account some of the challenges faced in the telemetry community-including multipaths and a guaranteed quality of service. This paper highlights how some mathematical models of adaptive modulation discussed extensively in many research papers and textbooks can be used in Cognitive Radios as well.
