Study of solutions against security threats in the context of cognitive radios

This thesis studies jamming and anti-jamming tactics using cognitive radio technology. This research is mainly based on Q-learning artificial intelligence algorithm and game theory models to deal with diverse jamming tactics. A Software Defined Radio/Cognitive Radio test bed architecture is used to develop, test and validate the proposed algorithm.
