5G, spectrum management framework, spectrum sensing, spectrum sharing, cognitive radioAbstract
The enormous developments of gaming devices as well as mobile apps have increased the demand of bandwidth. Development of wireless applications has been affected because of the insufficient spectrum resources in the 3G and 4G network. This spectrum scarcity is the main limitation of 3G and 4G networks, which leads to the revolution of the 5G technology. Spectrum scarcity is a great challenge in wireless communication. There are two significant research areas that need to be explored such as, searching spectrum resource and maximum spectrum utilization. To address spectrum insufficiency, consistent research is needed to find out spectrum band and share the spectrum resource. In this work, complete Spectrum management framework is discussed as well as spectrum sharing techniques are classified. We have conducted a thorough survey on various spectrum sharing schemes. The literature survey has been classified based on some significant sharing techniques depending on spectrum access method, network architecture, spectrum allocation behavior etc. We have also summarized contribution as well as limitation of recent spectrum sharing approaches. To enhance 5G technology, related spectrum sharing surveys are studied and future research directions are also discussed here.
