Decision making for cognitive radio equipment: analysis of the first 10 years of exploration

Résumé

This article draws a general retrospective view on the first 10 years of cognitive radio (CR). More specifically, we explore in this article decision making and learning for CR from an equipment perspective. Thus, this article depicts the main decision making problems addressed by the community as general dynamic configuration adaptation (DCA) problems and discuss the suggested solution proposed in the literature to tackle them. Within this framework dynamic spectrum management is briefly introduced as a specific instantiation of DCA problems. We identified, in our analysis study, three dimensions of constrains: the environment's, the equipment's and the user's related constrains. Moreover, we define and use the notion of a priori knowledge, to show that the tackled challenges by the radio community during first 10 years of CR to solve decision making problems have often the same design space, however they differ by the a priori knowledge they assume available. Consequently, we suggest in this article, the "a priori knowledge" as a classification criteria to discriminate the main proposed techniques in the literature to solve configuration adaptation decision making problems. We finally discuss the impact of sensing errors on the decision making process as a prospective analysis.
