Cooperative Energy Detection using Dempster-Shafer Theory under Noise UncertaintiesAuthors: Prakash Gohain,Sachin Chaudhari Conference: IEEE COMSNET 2017 Date: 2017-01-04 Report no: IIIT/TR/2017/79 AbstractCooperative spectrum sensing (CSS) is one of the efficient scheme that helps in improving the spectrum sensing performance of a cognitive radio network. In this paper we propose a Dempster-Shafer theory (DST) based CSS for cognitive radio network. The fusion rule is the D-S combination rule which is well known for its ability to handle uncertainty and has been used in quite a different number of fields. Noise uncertainty, which is unavoidable in practical field, can gravely limit the detection performance of CSS. In this paper we specially investigate sensor nodes undergoing uncertainty in noise power when the detection scheme is based on energy of the received signal and use DS theory to minimize such effects. Simulation results reveal significant improvement in CSS gain as compared to previous traditional methods. Full paper: pdf Centre for Communications |
