Q1Challenges of implementing cognitive radio networks▾

1. Spectrum Sensing Accuracy:

  • Missed detection: CR doesn’t detect a primary user who is present → CR transmits → causes interference to the licensed user. Legally problematic.
  • False alarm: CR thinks primary is present when it isn’t → abandons perfectly good spectrum unnecessarily → wastes the opportunity.
  • Achieving both low false alarm rate AND low missed detection simultaneously is mathematically difficult — tradeoff governed by the

Originally defined as the passing of ideas, information, and attitudes, the term has expanded to include physical channels and modern technological inventions.

    float percentage;

    printf("Enter marks for 5 subjects:\n");
    for(int i = 0; i < 5; i++)
    {
        scanf("%d", &marks[i]);
        total += marks[i];
    }

    percentage = (total / 5.0);
