摘　　要：IEEE has set up in October 2004 the IEEE802.22 Working Group-Wireless Regional Area Network (WRAN) Task Force to work out air interface standard based on Cognitive Radio (CR) technologies. The standard includes Physical Layer (PHY) and Media Access Control (MAC), utilizig the vacant spectrum bands already allocated to broadcast TV without interference.. The WRAN employs CR technologies to sense and estimate the television signals and use the technologies of dynamic spectrum management to find and then allocate vacant spectrums. The CR technologies are representing one of the major trends for future wireless communications. This article on WRANs and CR technologies will be divided into two issues. In this issue, WRANs and IEEE 802.22, CR technologies are introduced. And the second part in the next issue will analyze the applications of CR technologies.IEEE has set up in October 2004 the IEEE802.22 Working Group-Wireless Regional Area Network (WRAN) Task Force to work out air interface standard based on Cognitive Radio (CR) technologies.
