Spectrum Prediction via Temporal Conditional Gaussian Random Field Model in Wideband Cognitive Radio Networks

  • Conference paper

Abstract

Wideband spectrum sensing remains an open challenge for cognitive radio networks due to the insufficient wideband sensing capability. This paper introduces the theory of Gaussian Markov Random Field to estimate the un-sensed sub-channel status. We set up a measurement system to capture the WiFi spectrum data. With the measurement data, we verify that the proposed model of Temporal Conditional Gaussian Random Field can efficient estimate the sub-channel status.
