Abstract :
In this paper, cognitive radio relaying in the physical layer is investigated where the cognitive base station (CBS) relays the PU´s signal while transmitting its own signals to its secondary users (SUs). A new and simple linear method for beamforming, based on zero-forcing beamforming, adapted for the different levels of priority that users may possess in a cognitive radio network, is proposed and the special case of two SUs is analytically studied.
