Abstract--A cooperative approach to the sensing task of wireless cognitive radio (CR) networks is introduced based on a basis expansion model of the power spectral density (PSD) ma...
—This paper presents the system level performance evaluation for energy-detection based cooperative spectrum sensing in cognitive radio networks. Three performance criteria are q...
We consider a two-stage sensing scheme for cognitive radios where coarse sensing based on energy detection is performed in the first stage and, if required, fine sensing based o...
This paper develops a cooperative scheme among cognitive radios (CRs) to increase the spectrum sensing performance. CRs adaptively transmit local binary decisions to a fusion cente...
—This paper addresses optimal spectrum sensing in cognitive radio networks considering its system level cost that accounts for the local processing cost of sensing (sample collec...
