Analysis of Efficient Spectrum Handoff in a Multi-Class Hybrid Spectrum Access Cognitive Radio Network Using Markov Modelling

Cognitive radio networks (CRNs) rely on sensing of the licensed spectrum of a primary network to dynamically ascertain underutilized portion of the spectrum, thus affording additional communication opportunities. In a CRN, a single homogeneous spectrum access, such as interweave only deprives the se...
