Abstract
Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing is the most popular method for dynamic spectrum access because of its ability in changing the spectrum shapes. However, it produces a substantial out-of-band (OOB) radiation due to the high sidelobes of the modulated subcarriers which results in considerable interference to the neighboring users. This challenge becomes even more critical in cognitive radio networks, which gives the secondary system the right to use the available spectrum holes. In this paper, a joint technique for the reduction of OOB radiation is developed by adding the advantages of the cancellation carriers, based on firefly algorithm and of the generalized sidelobe canceller. Simulation results show that by using the proposed technique substantial reduction in OOB radiation is achieved.
