Spectrum sensing (SS) has attracted much attention due to its important role in the improvement of spectrum efficiency. However, the limited sensing time leads to an insufficient sampling point due to the tradeoff between sensing time and communication time. Although the sensing performance of cooperative spectrum sensing (CSS) is greatly improved by mutual cooperation between cognitive nodes, it is at the expense of computational complexity. In this paper, efficient approximations of the N-out-of-K rule-based CSS scheme under heterogeneous cognitive radio networks are provided to obtain the closed-form expression of the sensing threshold at the fusion center (FC), where the false alarm probability and its corresponding detection probability are approximated by the Poisson distribution. The computational complexity required to obtain the optimal sensing threshold at the FC has greatly decreased and theoretical derivations state that the approximation error is negligible. The simulations validate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
