In this paper, we consider spectrum sensing of DVB-T signals in differentfading environments. We compare state-of-the-art detectorsincluding detectors based on pilot subcarriers, as well as detectors for general OFDM signals that exploit the correlation structure incurred by the cyclicprefix. Energy detection is also included for comparison. We shownumerically that the choice of detector depends on the scenario, the detectorrequirements, and on the available prior knowledge. We also show that it ispossible to obtain good detection performance by exploiting the correlation,even in a frequency selective channel.
