Cognitive networks become hotspot in the field of network research recently. It is considered a valid solution for heterogeneous networks. In this paper, we propose a new architecture of cognitive networks and divide its cognitive capabilities into three sub-layers named access cognitive layer, network cognitive layer and service cognitive layer. The aim of the design is to implement cognitive capabilities easily and pertinency. Works in this paper indicates directions of cognitive networks research for the future.
