Spectrum-Efficient Cognitive Radio Transceiver Using Multiwavelet Filters

Abstract EN

Cognitive radio (CR) transceiver that can offer adequate data rate and multiuser support for future wireless networks is a promising technology for reliable and spectrum-efficient mobile communication.

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and scalar wavelet based schemes have been proposed as physical layer techniques for CR.

This paper proposes multiwavelet packet-based multicarrier multiple-access scheme as an equally promising candidate for multi-user CR networks and using existing orthonormal multiwavelets, the performance of the proposed system is evaluated.

It is shown that the error performance of the proposed system under frequency and phase offset conditions is comparable with existing schemes.
