This is followed by an in-depth exploration of existing techniques that can be utilized by circuit designers. Coverage also includes novel circuit techniques and architectures that can be invaluable for designers for cognitive radio systems.   â_¢Â Discusses in detail the circuit-level challenges that exist for cognitive radio systems; â_¢Â Provides readers with a holistic understanding of RF circuits for cognitive radio systems; â_¢Â Enables communications engineers and systems designers to design better cognitive radio architectures and communication protocols UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4614-9296-2 ER -
