Compared with the single user spectrum sensing, cooperative spectrum sensing is a promising way to improve the detection precision. However, cooperative spectrum sensing is vulnerable to a variety of attacks, such as the spectrum sensing data falsification attack (SSDF attack). In this paper, we propose a concise cooperative spectrum sensing scheme based on a reliability threshold. We analyze the utility function of SSDF attacker in this scheme, and present the least reliability threshold for the fusion center against SSDF attack. Simulation results show that compared with the traditional cooperative spectrum sensing scheme, the SSDF attacker has a much lower utility in our proposed scheme, which drives it not to attack any more.
