The conference will address the following issues:

  • Cognitive Radios
    • Spectrum management, optimisation and spectrum sharing
    • Spectrum censoring, co-censoring
    • Cognitive Networking 
    • Intelligence of CR
    • Detection of other users
    • Connection to other CR’s
    • Regulation
