Cognitive Radio
“A cognitive radio (CR) is a radio that can change its
operating parameters dynamically based on interaction
with the environment in which it operates”.
They are designed to provide highly reliable
communication for all the users of the network,
wherever and whenever needed.
Functions of Cognitive Radio
Maximizes throughput
Mitigates interference
Facilitates interoperability

Spectrum Sensing Techniques
The most efficient way of spectrum sensing techniques
are divided into :
Local Spectrum Sensing
Energy detection
Matched Filter detection
Cyclostationary detection
Cooperative Spectrum Sensing
Distributive Cooperative detection
Centralized Cooperative detection
External Cooperative detection

Energy detection

The decision on the occupancy of a band can be
obtained by comparing the decision metric against a
fixed threshold.
Decision metric is given as :-
where
Y[n] – Received signal
N – no of Samples
Binary Hypothesis Testing
H0: x (t) = n(t),
H1: x(t) = s (t) + w (t)
where H0 and H1 are the sensed states for absence and
presence of primary user respectively
The four possible cases for detected signal are :
Declaring H0 when H0 is true (H0|H0);
Declaring H1 when H1 is true (H1|H1);
Declaring H0 when H1 is true (H0|H1);
Declaring H1 when H0 is true (H1|H0).
Challenges with Energy
detection method
Selection of threshold level for detecting
primary user.
Inability to differentiate from primary user and
noise.
Poor performance under low SNR.
Cooperative Sensing
In order to reduce communication overhead, the
users only share the final 1-bit decisions rearding
H0 and H1 rather than the entire decision
statistics.
Decreases the probabilities of miss-detection
and false alarm considerably.
Solves hidden primary user problem and it can
decrease sensing time.
Cooperative Sensing
• Uses control channel to share spectrum sensing
result.
• Co-operative sensing is usually performed in two
successive stages: sensing and reporting
• In order to reduce the reporting error, the
cluster based architecture to be used.

Cluster Based Cooperative sensing
Individual decision will be made by each user
and is send to their cluster head.
• Cluster head makes the local decision and
send to the cognitive Base station(BS)
• Cognitive BS decides the presence or
absence of primary user and broadcasts to
the cluster-heads.
•
Cluster based cooperative sensing
The probabilities of false-alarm and detection for conventional
cooperative scheme are
Qd = 1- (1 - Pd)N
Qf = 1- (1 - Pf)N
• The probability of detection for cluster based cooperative
scheme is
•
where
N= Number of Cooperative users
K= Number of cluster
Pd_i = Probability of detection for ith cluster

Comparison of performance of energy
detection in AWGN channel and
Rayleigh fading channel
•
•
We observe that the
performance of energy
detection has degraded when
fading channel is considered.
At Pf=0.1 , the Pm for
Rayleigh fading is high as
compared to that of AWGN
channel.
Comparison of performance of
energy detection in AWGN channel
for different values of SNR
We observe that , the
performance of energy
detection in AWGN channel
increases as SNR increases.
This indicates that the
efficiency of spectrum sensing
can be increased for energy
detection method by
increasing the value of SNR
Cooperative spectrum sensing with
different number of users
We observe that, as no. of
collaborations increases ,the
performance of energy
detection also increases.
When N=5, the performance
in fading channel is much
better than AWGN channel.
Conclusion
Emerging cognitive radio technology has been identified as a
high impact disruptive technology innovation, that could
provide solutions to the “radio traffic jam” problem and
provide a path to scaling wireless systems for the next 25
years.
Efficient spectrum sensing can be achieved by maximizing
the probability of detection.
Future Work
Significant new research is required to address the
technical challenges of cognitive radio networking like
dynamic spectrum allocation methods, spectrum
sensing, cooperative communications, cognitive network
security, cognitive system adaptation algorithms and
emergent system behavior.
A set of cognitive networking testbeds can be
developed that can be used to evaluate cognitive
networks at various stages of their development .
