Vertical spectrum sharing primary users have exclusive spectrum usage rights in a certain band
secondary users either lease or just autonomously use the spectrum without creating harmful interference to the primaries
Horizontal spectrum sharing systems/users having equal spectrum usage rights
Cognitive radio = spectrum sharing

Radio flexibility (5-tier concept of SDR Forum) Hardware Radios
no flexibility, fixed functionality Software Controlled Radios
Fixed signal path SW interface allows to configure limited number of parameters
(current commercial radios) Software Defined Radios

Cognitive radio = more flexibility (2)
Spectrum access flexibility No flexibility or fixed access
the frequency allocation scheme is fixed at a given time and location by regulatory bodies
Opportunistic spectrum access secondary users can actively search for unused spectrum in licensed
bands and communicate using these white holes. There is no feedback between primary and secondary users.
Dynamic spectrum access terminals and technologies can negotiate the use of wireless
spectrum locally for a certain time window at run-time. Dynamic spectrum access requires cooperation and negotiation between users.

Cognitive radio research
Experimentally-driven research: why? Dynamic nature of wireless environment
uncontrolled interference complex wireless channels (mobility, fading…) (dis)appearing wireless devices
Theoretical studies or network simulations are often unreliable they build on simplified and inaccurate channel models they do not take into account HW limitations
Current experiments are limited experimental platforms and measurements today are mainly based on
1. laboratory equipment, such as vector spectrum analyzers, with high sensitivity
2. very low-cost narrowband, limited sensitivity off-the-shelf components only small scale experiments sensing implementations focused on vertical spectrum sharing
(detection of TV signals) 20

Regulatory Trends – WAPECS
45
WAPECS - Wireless Access Policy for Electronic Communications (WAPECS) A framework for the provision of electronic communications
services within a set of frequency bands to be identified and agreed between European Union Member States in which a range of electronic communications networks and electronic communications services may be offered on a technology and service neutral basis, provided that certain technical requirements to avoid interference are met, to ensure the effective and efficient use of the spectrum, and the authorisation conditions do not distort competition.
