Samenvatting
The electromagnetic spectrum's scarcity, the tactical edge's dynamic nature, and the variety of tactical operations impose challenges to military cognitive radio networks. Multi-radio dynamic spectrum management (DSM) and routing promise to increase the spectral efficiency and robustness of tactical ad hoc networks by adding key control plane tools that adapt the network to the varying harsh tactical environments. This paper describes a novel concept where implicit spectrum sensing, a distributed DSM architecture with ontology-based spectrum access policies, modified routing and network time synchronization capabilities interplay to address those challenges. The simulation results verify the designed functionality in harsh electromagnetic environments in a multitude of scenario sizes, in terms of number of radio terminals and number of networks. In particular, the simulation of a large operational scenario shows solid scaling capabilities and that ongoing jamming in several networks is efficiently mitigated and low-loss performance are re-established.
