Radio Spectrum Issues and Cognitive Mobile Computing

  • Chapter
Resource Management in Mobile Computing Environments

Abstract

The rapid proliferation of mobile wireless devices, astronomical data traffic transmission and development of multifarious technologies has resulted in huge demand for usable radio spectrum bands. Allocation of new spectrum bands and maximizing the usage of currently allocated radio spectrum bands have become of vital importance in emerging mobile computing networks. This chapter highlights the importance and issues of radio spectrum in mobile computing networks and also presents cognitive functionalities as an appropriate solution to cope with the scarcity of usable radio spectrum in emerging cognitive mobile computing networks.
