Abstract
To improve the spectrum sensing performance in cognitive radios, a scheme of cooperative blind spectrum sensing based on autocorrelation matrix is proposed. The test statistic is extracted from the autocorrelation matrix of the received signal samples and a bi-threshold hybrid decision scheme is designed for local spectrum sensing. The cognitive radio base station makes a credibility fusion based on the local soft decisions and then takes global fusion combining with the local hard decisions. The proposed method is blind in the sense since it requires no apriori knowledge of the signal and the noise power. Theoretical analysis and computer simulation results show that the proposed method can enhance the spectrum sensing capability.
