Cognitive Radio

Definition

Cognitive radio is a type of wireless communication system that can intelligently sense its environment and adapt its transmission parameters accordingly. It dynamically identifies available radio spectrum and adjusts its operating frequency, power, and modulation to avoid interference and optimize spectrum usage. This adaptive capability allows for more efficient utilization of the radio frequency spectrum. Such systems are designed to operate autonomously and make informed decisions about radio transmission.
Cognitive Sharding: Adaptive Partitioning for Scalable, Secure Blockchains A sleek, silver metallic mechanism, featuring a central glowing blue core with intricate internal structures, is immersed within turbulent, translucent blue liquid. This visual metaphor represents a high-performance consensus mechanism at the heart of a distributed ledger technology network. The central unit embodies the robust cryptographic primitives securing digital asset transactions, while the surrounding fluid symbolizes the dynamic flow of on-chain data and network liquidity. This architecture suggests efficient transaction finality and scalable Web3 infrastructure.
