Despite ongoing research efforts to develop efficient wireless techniques, wireless networks always eventually face capacity demands exceeding their capabilities. This trend will continue with orders of magnitude expected growth in capacity demands and also an important shift with increasing machine-to-machine (M2M) communications. To properly serve the continuing demands for wireless access, several key technologies are considered by the research community. In this context, this research program specifically contemplates optimizing overall network efficiency with the development and analysis of medium access control (MAC) techniques for future millimeter wave wireless networks where directional antennas are used to mitigate the propagation loss. The vast millimeter wave spectrum then enables multi-fold data rate increase and the efficient deployment of contiguous wireless networks. Furthermore, millimeter wave networks have a number of properties that make operations using dynamic spectrum access (DSA) with cognitive radios a promising approach to efficiently deploy on a per need basis heterogeneous networks to share this vast spectrum.

尽管正在进行的研究努力开发有效的无线技术，但无线网络最终总是面临超出其能力的能力需求。这种趋势将继续随着产能需求的预期增长的预期增长而继续，并且随着机器对机器（M2M）通信的增加，这一趋势也将继续存在。为了适当满足对无线访问的持续要求，研究界考虑了几种关键技术。在这种情况下，该研究计划专门考虑优化整体网络效率，并通过对未来毫米波无线网络的中等访问控制（MAC）技术进行开发和分析，其中使用方向天线来减轻传播损失。然后，巨大的毫米波频谱实现了多倍数据速率的增加以及连续无线网络的有效部署。此外，毫米波网络具有许多属性，可以使用动态频谱访问（DSA）进行操作，并具有认知收音机为有希望的方法，可以根据需求有效地部署异质网络，以共享这种广阔的频谱。
