Call For Papers - CFP

This is the second year for the workshop on Cognitive Radio, co-located with IMSAA 2011. Cognitive radio and networks are considered the key to futuristic reconfigurable communication and networking. Apart from efficient use of the spectrum, they can facilitate the integration of different wireless systems. The Cognitive Radio Network (CRN) formed out of cognitive radios extends the radio link-level features to network layer functions and above. There has been considerable interest in integrating the advantages of cognitive radio and capabilities of multiple antenna systems, including the use of Smart Antennas to reduce interference to the licensed users as well as clever ways of spectrum sharing.

For the International Workshop on Cognitive Radio and Smart Antennas (CORSA), we invite papers offering novel research contributions in all aspects of cognitive radio/networks and smart antennas
