Cognitive Radio?
Cognitive Radio (CR) is a promising technology that
is expected to play an important role in the future
generations of radio communication systems
CR is a radio communication system that
understands the context in which it finds itself and
as a result can tailor the communication process in
line with that understanding
A radio communication system with a brain!
Adaptation -1
There are currently numerous communication systems
making use of smart radios which can adapt their
behaviour in many ways
Example?
Adaptation -2
CR takes this type of adaptive behavior much
further by greatly increasing the level of adaptivity
which applies to a wider range of parameters

Spectrum sensing
In order to avoid interference the spectrum holes
need to be sensed
Primary user detection the most efficient way.
