Abstract:
Cognitive radio is one of the enabling technologies considered for the next generation communication systems for many mission-critical applications. In cognitive radio systems, cooperative spectrum sensing is one of the key techniques that can improve reliability and agility. In this paper, a framework that integrates quickest detection and belief propagation is applied to the cooperative spectrum sensing, where the primary user activities are heterogeneous in the space and dynamic in the time. The performance of the proposed scheme is analyzed mathematically. Using numerical simulations, detection performance measured by false alarm rate and average detection delay is obtained for different setups. The results show that the proposed scheme achieves better receiver operational curves than traditional detection method.
