The inadequate use of wireless spectrum resources has recently motivated researchers and practitioners to look for new ways to improve resource efficiency. As a result, new cognitive radio technologies have been proposed as an effective solution.

Sensing Techniques for Next Generation Cognitive Radio Networks is a pivotal reference source that provides vital research on the application of spectrum sensing techniques. While highlighting topics such as radio identification, compressive sensing, and wavelet transform, this publication explores the standards and the methods of cognitive radio network architecture. This book is ideally designed for IT and network engineers, practitioners, and researchers seeking current research on radio scene analysis for cognitive radios and networks.
