This talk will be split into two main parts SENDORA Project Overview Opportunities for Dynamic Spectrum Access in Primary OFDMA Systems
queries on spectrum status reports on spectrum status SENDORA concept consists in studying and developing a "Sensor Network aided Cognitive Radio" technology Primary Network Cognitive Network Wireless Sensor Network
3 main project objectives are defined • Identify and analyze operational scenarios of the Wireless Sensor Network aided Cognitive Radio technology • Define and simulate WSN aided opportunistic access and dynamic resources allocation strategies for cognitive radios • Design a flexible and reconfigurable architecture, and demonstrate through a proof-of-concept the WSN aided Cognitive Radio technology
Work Package breakdown, and participants WP2 Scenarios, System requirements and definition WP1 Project Management WP8 Dissemination WP3 Sensing WP5 Cooperative Communications WP4 Cognitive Actuation WP6 WSN design WP7 System integration and Demonstration
The selected scenario is “Nomadic broadband in urban and suburban areas” • Wireless broadband will be an important service for users and operators in the future • Most users are stationary when needing mobile broadband • Cognitive radio can offer high bit rates and low costs • Can later be extended towards mobility
A centralized system architecture with a fusion centre is proposed Primary Systems C = Centralized access capabilityS = Sensing capabilityA = Ad hoc capability
Dynamic Spectrum Access (DSA) will enable a secondary system to utilize available spectrum DSA PU (Primary User) SU (Secondary User)
