Abstract
For overlay cognitive radio networks (CRNs), transform domain communication system (TDCS) has been proposed to support multiuser communications through spectrum bin nulling and frequency domain spreading. In TDCS-based CRNs, each user is assigned a specific pseudorandom spreading sequence. However, the existence of multiuser interference (MUI) is one of main concerns, due to the non-zero cross-correlations between any pair of TDCS signals. In this paper, a novel framework of TDCS-based CRNs with the joint design of sequences and modulation schemes is presented to realize MUI avoidance. With the uncertainty of spectrum sensing results in CRNs, we first introduce a unique sequence design through two-dimensional time-frequency synthesis and obtain a class of almost perfect sequences. That is, periodic auto-correlation and cross-correlations are identically zero for most circular shifts.…
