Spectrum sensing is a key feature in cognitive radio networks. We propose a locally optimum (LO) detector, which is known to be optimum at low SNR. This is desirable in cognitive radio since the primary user's signal may exhibit a very low power at the cognitive user's transmitter. We focus here on linear modulation in the presence of an unknown phase shift and additive white Gaussian noise. In the...
A key technology in cognitive radio (CR) is spectrum sensing that senses the spectrum and reports the available vacant channels. However, due to some effects such as fading or shadowing, an individual sensor may not be able to reliably detect the existence of a primary user (PU). Cooperative spectrum sensing that is proposed to solve such problem, uses a distributed detection system to overcome the...
In spectrum-sensing cognitive radio, a local radio might fail to reliably and efficiently monitor the available spectrum holes. To combat the channel fading suffered by such a radio, a cognitive network of cooperative spectrum sensing users is employed. The spectrum sensing time duration should be minimized to maximize the capacity of cognitive radio network. In this paper, the twin effects of varying...
