Energy-Efficient Cooperative Spectrum Sensing for Cognitive Radio Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
One of the main problems of Cooperative Spectrum Sensing (CSS) in cognitive radio networks is the high energy consumption. Energy is consumed while sensing the spectrum and reporting the results to the fusion centre. In this chapter, a novel partial CSS is proposed. The main concern is to reduce the energy consumption by limiting the number of participating users in CSS. Particularly, each user individually makes the participation decision. The energy consumption in a CSS round is expected by the user itself and compared to a predefined threshold. The corresponding user will participate only if the expected amount of energy consumed is less than the participation threshold. The chapter includes optimizing the participation threshold for energy efficiency maximization. The simulation results show a significant reduction in the energy consumed compared to the conventional CSS approach.

Energy detection is one of the popular spectrum sensing technique for cognitive radio. Better performance can be obtained by cooperative detection, but only when cognitive radios did not have different geographic locations and channel environment. To avoid this drawback, the paper presents an improved energy-based weighted cooperative spectrum sensing method which allows to achieve higher detec...
