Abstract :
In this paper we develop a cellular cognitive radio network based on MC-CDMA, which is able to coexist with a number of legacy RANs in a shared band. Using the simple-to-obtain knowledge of RF environment, namely the bandwidth and frequency location of each legacy system, the cognitive MC-CDMA transmitter mitigates the interference in the corresponding receivers by adaptive transmission. We will develop an algorithm for calculating the adaptive transmission parameters and elaborate on error performance of this approach analytically and numerically.
