This paper proposes the use of cognitive radio technology for multiple wireless sensor technologies in mines. The work is motivated by the lack of flexible and scalable sensor networks in mines. The proposed architecture uses cognitive radio capabilities to enable several sensor network technologies to be seen as “one” network from the data-analyser’s point of view. The proposed deployment methodology would greatly ease sensor network deployment, maintenance and therefore cost.

Author:Aderonmu, AI; Rotimi, AH; Masonta, Moshe T; Mzyece, MDate:Nov 2012Radio Frequency (RF) spectrum is a natural resource widely used by wireless network operators to provide radio communications or transmission systems (e.g. telephone operators and TV broadcast stations). Scarcity of RF spectrums has led to ...Read more
Author:Masonta, Moshe T; Johnson, D; Mzyece, MDate:Nov 2011The global migration of television (TV) from analogue to digital broadcasting will result in more spectrum bands (known as TV white space), previously used in analogue broadcasting, becoming available and unoccupied. A question is on how much ...Read more
Author:Ogbodo, EU; Dorrell, DG; Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MIDate:Jan 2021Background: A cognitive radio sensor network (CRSN)-based Smart Grid (SG) is a new paradigm for a modern SG. It is totally different from the traditional power grid and conventional SG. Currently, an SG uses a static resource allocation ...Read more
