Enabled by regulatory initiatives and advanced radio technology, more flexible opportunistic spectrum access has great potential to alleviate the spectrum scarcity. In this paper,...
Primary user emulation attack (PUEA) is a denial of service (DoS) attack unique to dynamic spectrum access (DSA) networks. While there have been studies in the literature to detect...
In a cognitive radio network, the full-spectrum is usually divided into multiple channels. However, due to the hardware and energy constraints, a cognitive user (also called second...
— Spectrum sensing is a key enabling functionality in cognitive radio (CR) networks, where the CRs act as secondary users that opportunistically access free frequency bands. Due ...
Collaborative spectrum sensing in cognitive radio networks has been proposed as an efficient way to improve the performance of primary users detection. In collaborative spectrum se...
