Appearance of the idle band may be contiguous or non-contiguous. In other words,the PU's band and the idle band are distributed alternately over the spectrum. Apparently the non-contiguous idle band cannot be fully utilized in this context. This paper proposes an algorithm to solve the problem of low utilization of the non-contiguous idle band and to increase the number of the SU who needs access to the spectrum by a static spectrum aggregation ( SSA) method combined with non-contiguous orthogonal frequency division multiplexing ( NC-OFDM) . The simulation results show that the SSA algorithm realizes at least 70% utilization of the idle band which provides access to the spectrum for as many as 30 SUs as expected.展开更多

ProSync partly shrinks the preamble at the transmitter and exploits two multi-band filters at the receiver. By doing so, the potential interference suffered by NC-OFDM users, including both the cross-band interference and self interference, can be greatly reduced. Simulation results verify the effectiveness of ProSync, which is able to lower the carrier frequency offset （CFO） estimation error by up to 50%, compared with the traditional method.展开更多
