Title
Experimental testbed for 5G cognitive radio access in 4G LTE cellular systems
Abstract
Cognitive radio technology addresses the limited availability of wireless spectrum and inefficiency of spectrum usage. Cognitive Radio (CR) devices sense their environment, detect spatially unused spectrum and opportunistically access available spectrum without creating harmful interference to the incumbents. In cellular systems with licensed spectrum, the efficient utilization of the spectrum as well as the protection of primary users is equally important, which imposes opportunities and challenges for the application of CR. This paper introduces an experimental framework for 5G cognitive radio access in current 4G LTE cellular systems. It can be used to study CR concepts in different scenarios, such as 4G to 5G system migrations, machine-type communications, device-to-device communications, and load balancing. Using our framework, selected measurement results are presented that compare Long Term Evolution (LTE) Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex (OFDM) with a candidate 5G waveform called Generalized Frequency Division Multiplexing (GFDM) and quantify the benefits of GFDM in CR scenarios.
