Abstract

Cognitive Radio Networks (CRNs) are emerging as a viable solution to solve spectrum shortage problems, with the view of the evolutionary progress towards realizing the network of the future. The present work discusses a general survey of several among the critical capabilities and/or features characterizing CRNs, in the context of actual European standardization efforts. The chapter outlines an overall and harmonized technical concept for future CR systems, especially by discussing several options affecting the future evolution of radio technologies and network architectures towards more flexible and reconfigurable CR systems, as the latter are expected to increase the efficiency of the overall spectrum usage by offering new sharing opportunities and thus to provide more flexibility to applications-services.
