We present progress toward the formulation of a mathematical model for a cognitive communicationnetwork with applications to satellite systems. Our model employs abstract concepts including communicators, communications channels, and demand for capacity. These model elements may be tailored to represent a wide variety of practical communication scenarios. We present a dynamic automated reasoning methodology which uses the model…

The decentralized Cognitive Radio Medium Access Control (CR MAC) protocols proposed so far are usually evaluated considering homogeneous sensing conditions where all Secondary Users (SUs) share the same view of the channel. By doing so, realistic heterogeneous channel sensing conditions are neglected, which happens due to different spectrum sensing errors and/or different patterns of channel occupation by the…

Cognitive Radio is an exciting new technology for efficient use of radio spectrum. Research oncognitive radio has for a large part, focused on physical layer issues such as robust spectrum sensing and radio environment characterization. The networking of cognitive radio nodes is equally important however as new protocols need to be developed to cope with physical layer dynamics. The lack of a widely used and open source simulation…

Providing the required quality of service (QoS) for clients in a wireless mesh network (WMN) is a challenging task. This is due to the complex architecture of the WMN and unpredictable behavior of the wireless links and the intermediate nodes. This can be alleviated by introducing a cognitive mechanism within the WMN. In this paper, a WMN is developed,…

In wireless mesh networks (WMNs), the achievable performance of the nodes depends on the behavior of intermediate routers. Utilizing cognition in the network could result in higher adaptivity to satisfy the end-user requirements. In this paper, we propose a cognitive WMN that utilizes multiple gateways to serve a client through multi-path routing. The injected intellectuality in the network (cognitive process) relieves the capriciousness by…

Large urban areas are nowadays covered by millions of wireless devices, including not only cellular equipment carried by their inhabitants, but also several ubiquitous and pervasive platforms used to monitor and/or actuate on a variety of phenomena in the city area. Whereas the former are increasingly powerful devices equipped with advanced processors, large memory capacity,…

Wide spread of Internet of Things (IoTs) still have huddles in cost and maintenance. Energy harvesting is a promising option to mitigate battery replacement, but the current energy harvesting methods still rely on batteries or equivalent and power converters for the maximum power point tracking (MPPT). Unfortunately, batteries are subject to wear and tear, which…

In Internet of Things (IoT), there are many future applications in smart environments. This paper first presents a possible scenario of a family making use of the IoT in their daily living, and then work leading to integration of unobtrusive sensors in the smart environment is discussed. In the applications discussed, Bluetooth connections linked and connected the…

Internet of Things (IoT) enables various applications (crop growth monitoring and selection, irrigation decision support, etc) in Digital Agriculture domain. Semantic enhancements to IoT platforms address challenges of interoperability, data fusion, integration of heterogeneous IoT silos, annotation of data streams, just to name a few. This paper discusses the recently developed OpenIoT platform which demonstrated its applicability and efficiency…
