Rendezvous Protocols and Dynamic Frequency Hopping Interference Design for Anti-Jamming Satellite Communication

Abstract

Cognitive radio technology combines high re-configurability with intelligent spectrum management and adaptation, which materializes into a highly agile and spectrally efficient platform for communications. In fact, cognitive radio technology enables the use of opportunistic spectrum access of the underutilized portions of the assigned spectrum. The benefit of such technology and capabilities for military satellite communications is not well understood. This project studies the properties of new algorithms for frequency hopping, a key component in cognitive radio technology. Methods from game theory and hybrid systems theory are employed for the analytical study, while computer simulations are used to validate these findings.
