We consider a two-stage sensing scheme for cognitive radios where coarse sensing based on energy detection is performed in the first stage and, if required, fine sensing based o...
—This paper addresses optimal spectrum sensing in cognitive radio networks considering its system level cost that accounts for the local processing cost of sensing (sample collec...
There are many key problems of decision making related to spectrum occupancies in cognitive radio networks. It is known that there exist correlations of spectrum occupancies in tim...
— Collaborative spectrum sensing among secondary users (SUs) in cognitive networks is shown to yield a significant performance improvement. However, there exists an inherent tra...
—In this paper, we present a composite hypothesis testing approach for cooperative spectrum sensing. We derive the optimal likelihood ratio test (LRT) statistic based on the Neym...
