Abstract [en]

Cognitive Radios are recognized as a novel approach to improve the utilization of a precious natural resource of wireless communications: the radio frequency spectrum. Historically, telecom regulators assigned fixed spectrum bands to the licensed wireless network operators. This spectrum management approach guarantees an interference free environment, except for some configuration faults or illegal usage. However, with the increasing demand for more bandwidth in the finite radio spectrum, the spectrum becomes underutilized. Hence, the concept of secondary operators have emerged, but with emphasis not to influence licensed operators. Consequently, the Cognitive Radio Network (CRN) architecture enters the market as an intelligent solution to these issues, with concentration on spectrum sensing procedures to achieve the regulatory constraint. The most successful sensing algorithms are those applying cooperation and scheduling to have better scanning information; however, those algorithms are developed based on the primary network activities, which are good in terms of reducing expected interference, albeit with more computational load on the CRN. In this chapter, a novel sensing scheduler algorithm is proposed. The idea is to utilize the CRN by fairly distributing the sensing task among the sensors and afterwards utilizing the radio spectrum shared with the primary networks.

Abstract [en]

This thesis presents methods and applications of Fuzzy Logic and Rough Sets in the domain of Telecommunications at both the network and physical layers. Specifically, the use of a new class of functions, the truncated π functions, for classifying IP traffic by matching datagram size histograms is explored. Furthermore, work on adapting the payoff matrix in multiplayer games by using fuzzy entries as opposed to crisp values that are hard to quantify, is presented.

Additionally, applications of fuzzy logic in wireless communications are presented, comprised by a comprehensive review of current trends and applications, followed by work directed towards using it in spectrum sensing and power control in cognitive radio networks.

This licentiate thesis represents parts of my work in the fields of Fuzzy Systems and Wireless Communications. The work was done in collaboration between the Departments of Applied Signal Processing and Mathematics at Blekinge Institute of Technology.
