4098 IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS, VOL. 8, NO. 8, AUGUST 2009 Opportunistic Spectrum Sharing in Cognitive MIMO Wireless Networks Karama Hamdi, Student Member, IEEE, Wei Zhang, Member, IEEE, and Khaled Ben Letaief, Fellow, IEEE Abstract—Cognitive radio has been recently proposed as a be accessed by unlicensed users, even if the transmission promising technology to improve the spectrum utilization. In this of the unlicensed users does not introduce any interference paper, we consider the spectrum sharing between a large number to the licensed service. To deal with the conflicts between of cognitive radio users and a licensed user in order to enhance the spectrum efficiency. With the deployment of M antennas at spectrum congestion and spectrum under-utilization, cognitive the cognitive base station, an opportunistic spectrum sharing radio (CR) has been recently proposed as a smart and agile approach is proposed to maximize the downlink throughput technology which allows non-legitimate users to utilize li- of the cognitive radio system and limit the interference to the censed bands opportunistically [3], [4]. By detecting particular primary user. In the proposed approach, cognitive users whose spectrum holes and jumping into them rapidly, the CR can channels are nearly orthogonal to the primary user channel are pre-selected so as to minimize the interference to the primary improve the spectrum utilization significantly. To guarantee user. Then, M best cognitive users, whose channels are mutually a high spectrum efficiency while avoiding the interference to near orthogonal to each other,
