this talk, an opportunistic sharing scheme, referred to as Spectrum sHaring
with ARQ Retransmissions and Probing (SHARP), is introduced for cognitive radio
networks. We consider a pair of cognitive radio users co-existing with a pair
of ARQ-based primary users. The cognitive user overhears the ARQ feedback sent
from the receiver of the primary system, and then selects an appropriate
transmission mode to access the primary channel. The proposed SHARP approach
aims to exploit various spectrum sharing opportunities based on the ACK/NACK of
primary users only. Analytical achievable throughput is derived and it is
demonstrated that the performance of cognitive radio system increases
dramatically by employing SHARP.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
