Abstract: Tremendous growth in current wireless networks raises the demand of more frequency spectrum, over the finite availability of spectrum resource. Although, the research has specifies that the available primary users (i.e. licensed user) has not occupying the channel all the time. The most effective technology known as Cognitive radio giving promises for a solution of under utilization of available frequency spectrum in wireless communication. In cognitive radio network two types of wireless user can be define as primary user and secondary user. Primary users have highest priority to utilize the available band of frequency and secondary user can utilize these services only when the channel is vacant by primary user and there will be no any interference. The optimization of this may be implemented by a smart technique such as cognitive radio, which is fully automated intelligent wireless sensor tool having capability to sense, learn & adjust relevant operating parameters dynamically in radio atmosphere. This can be happen if we prefer the appropriate window technique to evaluate system parameter for sensing the availability of vacant band. We show that by comparing the different windows techniques, cognitive radios not only provide better spectrum opportunity but also provide the chance to huge number of wireless users.
