Abstract:
An exemplary embodiment provides a carrier aggregation apparatus including: a level assignment manager configured to perform management by classifying a license band allocated to a cognitive radio cell into a primary radio resource (PRR) level, and by classifying a shareable band obtained through a cognitive radio database or spectrum sensing into an auxiliary radio resource (ARR) level; a determiner configured to determine a quality of service (QoS) level of a communication service provided to the cognitive radio cell; and a service provider configured to allocate a frequency resource of the PRR level when the QoS level requires a first communication service, and to allocate a frequency resource of the ARR level when the QoS level requires a second communication service lower than the first communication service.
Abstract:
Provided is a method for duplex in a cognitive radio communication system, including: collecting radio environment information including information of usable radio resources; determining a duplex scheme for each radio resource based on the radio environment information; and allocating at least one of the radio resources to information to be transmitted and received, depending on characteristics of the information.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a contention based channel occupying method in a wireless network using a plurality of channels, including: acquiring, by terminals that are incapable of transmitting a data frame through primary contention, occupation channel information from a terminal that transmits the data frame through the primary contention; verifying, by the terminals, an occupiable channel based on the occupation channel information; and performing, by the terminals, secondary contention in the occupiable channel.
