“…This means that these should be build in addition to those readily under development like dynamic spectrum management whose major goal has been putting own radios operation in the same area to work together without interfering each other, e.g., [11]. The minor goal, if it has been the goal at all, has been the development of efficient cognitive AJ properties.…”

Abstract-Detection devices are becoming more wideband, faster scanning and their signal processing capabilities are increasing. In addition, sophisticated jamming devices have become rather powerful. As a consequence, threats to military radio communications have increased such that it is about time to discuss what features future military radio systems should have in order to battle against these increased menaces. This paper fills this gap by considering this problem from the point of view of electronic warfare physics. The result is a set of features that would help in the engagement. Furthermore, it discusses what effects these features have for radio system design. The proposed features add new properties, compared with legacy radios, that require new control functionalities that have to cooperate with old ones as well as together and also add radio hardware. Therefore, corresponding research problems will not be easily solved.

“…In [23], the authors propose an accurate representation of the physical layer of IEEE 802.11 as well realistic channel models in the ns-3 framework. In [24], the authors propose an high-fidelity simulator including the data link layer, physical layer and realistic channel models in the OMNeT++ framework. However, these works do not provide interfaces with hardware devices to test in a real environment (testbed mode) or in an emulation mode for HIL.…”

High fidelity simulation of cognitive radio networks (CRN) requires a CRN software framework with librairies of components at all layers of the open systems interconnection (OSI) model (e.g. modulation schemes, protocols, routing algorithms) along with realistic channel models for simulating a high number of nodes. At the same time, the CRN software framework should provide interfaces with hardware platforms for testbed evaluation and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL). Unfortunately, there is no such software framework in the research community. This paper studies the combination of some open-source frameworks for high fidelity simulation of CRN. In particular, some challenges are highlighted for the combination of radio simulators (e.g. GNU Radio, CogWave) and network simulators (e.g. OMNeT++, ns-3) at the level of network layer, data link layer and physical layer. Based on this evaluation, new extensions to the CogWave open-source software framework are proposed for high fidelity simulation of CRN.

“…Each node is characterized by a complete radio front-end and therefore it is able to transmit and receive data. As stated in [7] each node is composed by a non cognitive and a cognitive part, as depicted in Figure 1. The non cognitive part, called the Basic Waveform (BW), provides a basic reference waveform that has to be considered as the benchmark for the proposed cognitive solution.…”

“…As a matter of fact, CR is a promising technology providing a system which can plan, decide and adjust its parameters, observing its internal and external environment. For this reason, in the last years the European Defence Agency (EDA) promoted the Cognitive Radio for Dynamic Spectrum Management (CORASMA) program aiming at studying and testing the capability of Cognitive Radio (CR) to support military communications for heterogeneous network and improve their performance [7]. Medium Access Control (MAC) is the main responsible of the correct execution of several cognitive radio functions like spectrum mobility, channel sensing, resource allocation and spectrum sharing [8].…”

Abstract-The ability to continuously self-adapt to the variations of the radio environment will be an interesting issue for future tactical radio networks. Cognitive Radio (CR) is the main enabling paradigm allowing the self-adaptation process in military communications minimizing the human intervention in the network management operations. In this paper we provide a MAC-level solution based on a game theoretic framework that covers these open issues. Thinking to the CR devices in the network as players of the same game, the resource allocation problem can be formulated as a S-Modular Game, since it provides a set of helpful tools aimed at defining multi-objective distributed algorithms in the radio-communications context. On the base of the proposed solution, CR devices are able to hierarchically self-configure the network and share the radio resources in a fair and energy-efficient way. Simulation results presented in this paper has been obtained within the CORASMA project and they show the good performance of the proposed solution for cognitive radio tactical networks.
