In cognitive radio networks, each cognitive transmission process typically requires two phases: the spectrum sensing phase and data transmission phase. In this paper, we investiga...
Abstract—Cognitive Radio Networks aim at enhancing spectrum utilization by allowing cognitive devices to opportunistically access vast portions of the spectrum. To reach such amb...
In cognitive radio networks (CRNs), spectrum sensing is key to opportunistic spectrum access while preventing any unacceptable interference to primary users’ communications. Alt...
— In cognitive radio systems, secondary users can be coordinated to perform cooperative spectrum sensing so as to detect the primary user more accurately. However, when the sensi...
Primary user emulation attack in multichannel cognitive radio systems is discussed. An attacker is assumed to be able to send primary-user-like signals during spectrum sensing peri...
