Candidate Spectral Estimation for Cognitive Radio
نویسندگان
چکیده
Introducing a different view point of traditional filter bank approach for spectral estimation it is derived a spectral estimation method able to detect a given spectral shape forming part or contributing to a given data record. The method provides an estimated power level of the spectral shape contribution to the data record, and peaks close to the frequency where the spectral shape is located. Basically, the filter-bank, instead of being tuned to a single carrier, is tuned to the spectral shape. The spectral shape used to tune the filter-bank is refereed as the candidate spectrum. The major motivation for this procedure was the proper spectrum labelling of licensed users and interferers in cognitive radio applications. Key-Words: Spectral estimation, cognitive radio, filter bank, spectrum labeling.

Spectrum Labeling for Cognitive Radio Systems: Candidate Spectral Estimation
A key challenge of the air interface of the cognitive radio is an accurate detection of weak signals of licensed users over a wide spectrum range. This paper describes a method for first detecting and next locating in frequency a given primary user, even when a non-candidate interference is located at the same frequency. The range of SNR that is covered proves that the estimate is efficient for...

In cognitive radio techniques, OFDM is usually regarded as the physical layer candidate. However, the weaknesses of the OFDM technique, i.e., using plain FFT for spectral analysis , decreased bandwidth efficiency due to CP (cyclic prefix), high out-of-band emission, have been pointed out and the introduction of filter banks based multicarrier (FBMC) system has been advocated by a number of auth...
متن کاملAdaptive Boundary Estimation Algorithm for Spectrum Sensing in Cognitive Radio Networks
In a cognitive radio network, a primary user (PU) shares its spectrum with secondary users (SUs) temporally and spatially, while allowing for some interference. Consider the problem of estimating the no-talk region of the PU, i.e., the region outside which SUs may utilize the PU’s spectrum regardless of whether the PU is transmitting or not. And propose a adaptive boundary estimation algorithm ...
