Radio Engineering: From Software Radio to Cognitive Radio (Inglese)

Software radio ideally provides the opportunity to communicate withany radio communication standard by modifying only the software,without any modification to hardware components. However, takinginto account the static behavior of current communicationsprotocols, the spectrum efficiency optimization, and flexibility,the radio domain has become an important factor.
From this thinking appeared the cognitive radio paradigm. Thisevolution is today inescapable in the modern radio communicationworld. It provides an autonomous behavior to the equipment andtherefore the adaptation of communication parameters to bettermatch their needs.
This collective work provides engineers, researchers and radiodesigners with the necessary information from mathematical analysisand hardware architectures to design methodology and tools, runningplatforms and standardization in order to understand this newcognitive radio domain
