Scheme of Cooperative Spectrum Sensing Based on Adaptive Decision Fusion Algorithm

摘要

Spectrum sensing is one of the core technologies for cognitive radios（CR）,where reliable detection of the signals of primary users（PUs） is precondition for implementing the CR systems.A cooperative spectrum sensing scheme based on an adaptive decision fusion algorithm for spectrum sensing in CR is proposed in this paper.This scheme can estimate the PU prior probability and the miss detection and false alarm probabilities of various secondary users（SU）,and make the local decision with the Chair-Varshney rule so that the decisions fusion can be done for the global decision.Simulation results show that the false alarm and miss detection probabilities resulted from the proposed algorithm are significantly lower than those of the single SU,and the performance of the scheme outperforms that of the cooperative detection by using the conventional decision fusion algorithms.
