Abstract :
We suggest in this paper that many problems related to Cognitive Radio´s (CR) decision making inside CR equipments can be formalized as Multi-Armed Bandit problems and that solving such problems by using Upper Confidence Bound (UCB) algorithms can lead to high-performance CR devices. An application of these algorithms to an academic Cognitive Radio problem is reported.
