Low Energy Consumption Compressed Spectrum Sensing Based on Channel Energy Reconstruction in Cognitive Radio Network

摘要

For wireless communication networks, cognitive radio (CR) can be used to obtain the available spectrum, and wideband compressed sensing plays a vital role in cognitive radio networks (CRNs). Using compressed sensing (CS), sampling and compression of the spectrum signal can be simultaneously achieved, and the original signal can be accurately recovered from the sampling data under sub-Nyquist rate. Using a set of wideband random filters to measure the channel energy, only the recovery of the channel energy is necessary, rather than that of all the original channel signals. Based on the semi-tensor product, this paper proposes a new model to achieve the energy compression and reconstruction of spectral signals, called semi-tensor product compressed spectrum sensing (STP-CSS), which is a generalization of traditional spectrum sensing. The experimental results show that STP-CSS can flexibly generate a low-dimensional sensing matrix for energy compression and parallel reconstruction of the signal. Compared with the existing methods, STP-CSS is proved to effectively reduce the calculation complexity of sensor nodes. Hence, the proposed model markedly improves the spectrum sensing speed of network nodes and saves storage space and energy consumption.
