In this paper a new blind energy detection spectrum-sensing method based on Discreet Wavelet Transform (DWT) is proposed. The method utilizes the DWT sub-band to collects the received energy. The proposed method recognizes the Primary User (PU) signal from noise only signal using the differences in the collected energy in first and last sub-bands of one level DWT. The simulation results show that the proposed method achieves improved detection probability especially at low Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) compared to Conventional Energy Detector (CED). The results also show that the proposed method has shorter sensing time and less Energy Consumption (EC) compared to CED due to using small number of processed sample. Therefore, this method is suitable for Cognitive Radio (CR) applications where only limited energy like device battery is available.

Time Required

Due to the rapid increase in wireless applications and the number of users, spectrum scarcity, energy consumption and latency issues will emerge, notably in the fifth generation (5G) system. Cognitive radio (CR) has emerged as the primary technology to address these challenges, allowing opportunist spectrum access as well as the ability to analyze, observe, and learn how to respond to environmental 5G conditions. The CR has the ability to sense the spectrum and detect empty bands in order to use underutilized frequency bands without causing unwanted interference with legacy networks. In this paper, we presented a spectrum sensing algorithm based on energy detection that allows secondary user SU to transmit asynchronously with primary user PU without causing harmful interference. This algorithm reduced the sensing time required to scan the whole frequency band by dividing it into n sub-bands that are all scanned at the same time. Also, this algorithm allows cognitive radio networks (CRN) nodes to select their operating band without requiring cooperation with licensed users. According to the BER, secondary users have better performance compared with primary users.

Sensing Performance

In multichannel, cognitive radio (CR), the secondary user (SU) is allowed to utilize multiple subaltern frequency bands of the primary user (PU), when these bands, namely, subchannels are not currently being used. To support this spectrum reuse functionality, the SU is required to sense each subchannel, and only the subchannels wherein the PU is inactive are available for the spectrum access of the SU. In this paper, a multislot spectrum sensing and transfer scheme for multichannel CR is proposed, whose sensing stage is divided into several time slots allocated to the subchannels for spectrum sensing. While guaranteeing the spectrum sensing performance on each subchannel and limiting the interference to the PU, we formulate an optimization problem that maximizes the SU’s aggregate throughput by jointly allocating the optimal number of sensing time slots and the optimal transfer power to each subchannel. Theoretical analysis is given to prove the feasibility of the proposed optimization problem and simulation results are presented to show the notable improvement on the SU’s throughput when the sensing time slots and the transfer power are both optimized by the proposed scheme.

Cognitive radio is a technology proposed to increase the effective use of the spectrum. This can be done through the main function of cognitive radio technology, which is the spectrum sensing. In our work, we propose an analysis of the following spectrum sensing techniques: the matched filter detector, the cyclostationary feature detector, the energy detector and the maximum eigenvalue detector. More attention is given to blind sensing techniques that they do not need any knowledge of the primary user signal characteristics, namely the energy detection and maximum eigenvalue detection. These methods are evaluated in terms of Receiver Operational Characteristic curves and detection probability for various values of Signal to Noise Ratio based on Monte Carlo simulations, using MATLAB. As a result of this study, we found that the energy detection offers a good performance only for high SNR. Furthermore, with the maximum eigenvalue detector, the noise uncertainty problem encountered by the energy detection is solved when the value of the smoothing factor L ≥ 8 and. Finally, a summary of the comparative analysis is presented.

In this paper a new hybrid blind spectrum sensing method is proposed. The method is designed to enhance the detection performance of Conventional Energy Detector (CED) through combining it with a proposed sensing module based on Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) coefficient’s relationship as operation mode at low Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) values. In the proposed sensing module a certain factor called Average Ratio (AR) represent the ratio of energy in DCT coefficients is utilized to identify the presence of the Primary User (PU) signal. The simulation results show that the proposed method improves PU detection especially at low SNR values.

Simulation Results

Spectrum Sensing is one of the major steps in Cognitive Radio. There are many methods to conduct Spectrum Sensing. Each method has different detection performances. In this article, the authors propose a modification of one of these methods based on MME algorithm and OAS estimator. In MME&OAS method, in each detection window, OAS estimates the covariance matrix of the signal then the MME algorithm detects the signal on the estimated matrix. In the proposed algorithm, authors assumed that there is correlation between two consecutive decisions, so authors suggest the OAS estimator depending on the last detection decision, and then detect the signal using MME algorithm. Simulation results showed enhancement in detection performance (about 2dB when detection probability is 0.9. compared to MME&OAS method).

<p>Cognitive Radio has been skillful technology to improve the spectrum sensing as it enables Cognitive Radio to find Primary User (PU) and let secondary User (SU) to utilize the spectrum holes. However detection of PU leads to longer sensing time and interference. Spectrum sensing is done in specific “time frame” and it is further divided into Sensing time and transmission time. Higher the sensing time better will be detection and lesser will be the probability of false alarm. So optimization technique is highly required to address the issue of trade-off between sensing time and throughput. This paper proposed an application of Genetic Algorithm technique for spectrum sensing in cognitive radio. Here results shows that ROC curve of GA is better than PSO in terms of normalized throughput and sensing time. The parameters that are evaluated are throughput, probability of false alarm, sensing time, cost and iteration.</p>

Sensing Applications

An efficient bandwidth allocation and dynamic bandwidth access away from its previous limits is referred as cognitive radio (CR).The limited spectrum with inefficient usage requires the advances of dynamic spectrum access approach, where the secondary users are authorized to utilize the unused temporary licensed spectrum. For this reason it is essential to analyze the absence/presence of primary users for spectrum usage. So spectrum sensing is the main requirement and developed to sense the absence/ presence of a licensed user. This paper shows the design model of energy detection based spectrum sensing in frequency domain utilizing Binary Symmetric Channel (BSC) ,Additive white real Gaussian channel (AWGN), Rayleigh fading channel users for 16-Quadrature Amplitude Modulation(QAM) which is utilized for the wide band sensing applications at low Signal to noise Ratio(SNR) level to reduce the false error identification. The spectrum sensing techniques has least computational complexity. Simulink model for the energy detection based spectrum sensing using frequency domain in MATLAB 2014a.

The Impact

In cognitive radio network, how to minimize the impact of secondary user on primary user’s signal plays a very important and complex role. Therefore, spectrum sensing is one of the most essential components of cognitive radio. Therefore, the effect of spectrum sensing algorithms plays a key role to the system’s performance. In this paper, we concentrate on spectrum sensing algorithms in order to find out spectrum hole or while hole for reusing it. Specifically, we will highlight the energy detector algorithm of unknown deterministic signals over fading channels. The numerical results match well with theoretical analysis. The system’s performance of energy detection in AWGN channel is acceptable in case of relatively low signal to noise ratio (SNR). However, the performance of system will be degraded remarkable over fading environments.
