Spectrum sharing models in cognitive radio networks
Spectrum scarcity demands thinking new ways to
manage the distribution of radio frequency bands so that its use is more effective. The emerging technology that can enable this paradigm shift is the cognitive radio. Different models for
organizing and managing cognitive radios have emerged, all with specific strategic purposes. In this article we review the allocation spectrum patterns of cognitive radio networks and
analyse which are the common basis of each model.We expose the vulnerabilities and open challenges that still threaten the adoption
and exploitation of cognitive radios for open civil networks.L'escassetat de demandes d'espectre fan pensar en noves formes de gestionar la distribució de les bandes de freqüència de ràdio perquè el seu ús sigui més efectiu. La tecnologia emergent que pot permetre aquest canvi de paradigma és la ràdio cognitiva. Han sorgit diferents models d'organització i gestió de les ràdios cognitives, tots amb determinats fins estratègics. En aquest article es revisen els patrons d'assignació de l'espectre de les xarxes de ràdio cognitiva i s'analitzen quals són la base comuna de cada model. S'exposen les vulnerabilitats i els desafiaments oberts que segueixen amenaçant l'adopció i l'explotació de les ràdios cognitives per obrir les xarxes civils.La escasez de demandas de espectro hacen pensar en nuevas formas de gestionar la distribución de las bandas de frecuencia de radio para que su uso sea más efectivo.

Asymmetric-valued Spectrum Auction and Competition in Wireless Broadband Services
We study bidding and pricing competition between two spiteful mobile network
operators (MNOs) with considering their existing spectrum holdings. Given
asymmetric-valued spectrum blocks are auctioned off to them via a first-price
sealed-bid auction, we investigate the interactions between two spiteful MNOs
and users as a three-stage dynamic game and characterize the dynamic game's
equilibria. We show an asymmetric pricing structure and different market share
between two spiteful MNOs. Perhaps counter-intuitively, our results show that
the MNO who acquires the less-valued spectrum block always lowers his service
price despite providing double-speed LTE service to users. We also show that
the MNO who acquires the high-valued spectrum block, despite charing a higher
price, still achieves more market share than the other MNO. We further show
that the competition between two MNOs leads to some loss of their revenues. By
investigating a cross-over point at which the MNOs' profits are switched, it
serves as the benchmark of practical auction designs
