    摘要: A system and method for the operation of a Spectrum Manager (SM) within a cognitive radio system includes two primary states of operation: SM at network initialization and SM at network operation. While in the network Initialization state, the SM's primary responsibility is to find an operating channel. After an operating channel is found, the SM moves from the network initialization state to the network operation state while executing a procedure to establish a network. While in the network operation state, the SM can execute other procedures, a procedure to update list of available channel from the incumbent database of channel and frequency data, a procedure to determine a signal type, a procedure to enter co-existence mode, deciding when to move to a backup channel and issuing calls for the same as well as background procedures such as looking for better backup channels when the SM is otherwise idle.

    摘要: Various cognitive communications system architectures and their corresponding Protocol Reference Models (PRMs) are disclosed. Such PRMs incorporate a Cognitive Plane in addition to conventional Data and Management Planes. The additional Cognitive Plane functionality may include, for example, spectrum sensing, spectrum management, geolocation, and security functions. The Cognitive Plane may further include a Policy Engine and a Learning and Reasoning Module. In some embodiments, Management Plane functions may be effectively combined to form a database of primitives (and their respective values) called a Management Information Base (MIB). In addition, techniques are provided by which various components of cognitive and non-cognitive, as well as mesh-enabled and non-mesh-enabled nodes in a network, inter-operate with each other. The architectures allow a Spectrum Manager (or Signal Space Manager) to combine information from various network layers (e.g., PHY/MAC Layers, Spectrum Sensing Function, Geolocation Function, and/or Security Sublayers), and to make informed decisions on spectrum utilization.

    摘要: A method and system are disclosed to detect a broad class of signals including Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) digital television (DTV) and wireless microphone signals. This signal detection method performs in Gaussian noise, employing Higher Order Statistics (HOS). Signals are processed in time and frequency domains as well as by real and imaginary components. The spectrum sensing employed also supports Denial of Service (DoS) signal classification. The method can include parameters that may be tailored to adjust the probability of detection and false alarm.

    摘要: In a communication system, and in particular a wireless Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) communication system, the present invention provides systems for synchronizing data transmitted across a channel. The present invention may be used in a Multi-Input, Multi-Output (MIMO) system in which the data is transmitted from any number of transmitting antennas and received by any number of receiving antennas. The number of transmitting and receiving antennas does not necessarily have to be the same. Circuitry is provided for synchronizing the data in both the time domain and frequency domain. Time synchronization involves coarse time synchronization and fine time synchronization. Frequency synchronization involves coarse frequency offset estimation, fine frequency offset estimation, and frequency offset correction.

    摘要: A system and method for converting a non-cognitive radio into a cognitive radio is presented. A cognitive radio system includes, a non-cognitive radio; an electronic device, a spectrum sensing logic and configuration and management logic. The electronic device is connected to the non-cognitive radio so that it receives and/or transmits messages to/from a wireless network. The configuration and management logic is connected between the non-cognitive radio and the spectrum sensing logic. The spectrum sensing logic and the configuration and management logic are removable from the non-cognitive radio allowing the cognitive radio to operate in a non-cognitive mode. The spectrum sensing logic senses a wireless environment to determine available frequencies and available channels. The configuration and management logic transmits available frequencies, available channels or other spectrum data to a remote spectrum manager that is managing access to the wireless network.

    摘要: An algorithm system to detect a broad class of signals in Gaussian noise using higher-order statistics. The algorithm system detects a number of different signal types. The signals may be in the base-band or the pass-band, single-carrier or multi-carrier, frequency hopping or non-hopping, broad-pulse or narrow-pulse etc. In a typical setting this algorithm system provides an error rate of 3/100 at a signal to noise ratio of 0 dB. This algorithm system gives the time frequency detection ratio that may be used to determine if the detected signal falls in Class Single-Carrier of Class Multi-Carrier. Additionally this algorithm system may be used for a number of different applications such as multiple signal identification, finding the basis functions of the received signal and the like.
