Reactive Cognitive Radio Algorithms for Co-Existence Between IEEE 802.11b and 802.16a Networks

Overview This paper investigates the use of reactive cognitive radio algorithms to enable co-existence between IEEE 802.11b and 802.16a networks in the same unlicensed band. In particular, a system model is developed in which the two wireless systems share radio resources in frequency, space and time, and reactive coordination methods are used to reduce the mutual interference and improve link throughput. Reactive cognitive radio schemes utilize the available degrees of freedom in frequency, power and time, and react to observations in these dimensions to avoid interference. Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) enables radios to choose the band with the least interference.

Heavyweights back wireless communications

Bluetooth will use a 2.4GHz radio frequency, an unlicensed band which is already used by wireless LANs and microwave ovens - although Siberg denied there will be significant interference problems. The companies have unveiled a technology - called...

Peter Cochrane's Uncommon Sense: Wireless everything

We have principally avoided interference by allocating specific frequencies of operations separated in the same way that the different radio channels on your FM radio are allocated. Sometimes this is experienced when atmospheric conditions cause...

The Bloor Perspective: Biometric choices, 3G+WLAN and EMC buying VMWare

Over recent years, phones have become dual band, tri-band and even quad-band to cover an ever larger frequency range of countries with GSM networks. Then there is the potential problem of frequency interference with Bluetooth.

Radioactive: Bluetooth - survival of the fastest

The term 'ultra-wide band' was first coined by the US Department of Defence in 1989 which was using it for ground-penetrating radar. This increases the signal's range by reducing interference. This broad definition of UWB covers a number of...

RFID - no licences necessary

'Big Mobile' ready to bet the "refarm" on 3G

The Ovum study calls for international co-ordination in the opening up of the 900MHz band, particularly due to the interference problems that could otherwise arise. The report showed that allowing 3G to be used over the 900MHz GSM spectrum band - a...

Virtualisation: Architectual Considerations and other Evaluation Criteria

In the past several years, server virtualisation technology has moved quickly and firmly into the IT mainstream. Of the many approaches to system virtualisation available in the market today, VMware's hypervisor architecture has gained the greatest market acceptance. This paper examines the architectural issues, solution support, and enterprise readiness required when deploying such a virtualisation solution.
