Security of Spectrum Learning in Cognitive Radios
نویسندگان
چکیده
Due to delay and energy constraints, a cognitive radio may not be able to perform spectrum sensing in all available channels. Therefore, a sensing policy is needed to decide which channels to sense. The channel selection problem is the problem of designing such a sensing policy to maximize throughput while avoiding interference to primary users. The channel selection problem can be formulated as a reinforcement learning problem. Channel selection schemes that employ reinforcement machine learning algorithms are vulnerable to belief manipulation attacks that contaminate the knowledge base of the learning algorithms. In this paper, we analyze the security of channel selection algorithms that are based on reinforcement learning and propose mitigation techniques that make these algorithms more robust against belief manipulation attacks.
