Abstract :
Most of the study of implementing cognitive radio technology to date has focused on its potential in military and emergency services uses. This paper examines some of the issues involved in adapting cognitive radio technology consumer markets. We highlight some potential advantages to cognitive radio defined networks for consumers and suggest some possible service designs and pricing systems
