Abstract
ABSTRACT With the development of the maritime transportation industry, the number of ships is increasing and the ships are becoming more intelligent. Due to the rapid development of maritime communication, the demand for communication spectrum is increasing. Therefore, the maritime cognitive radio (CR) system is an effective solution. Because of the multipath fading caused by sea surface and atmosphere has a more serious influence on communication signals, which increases the instability of the signal reception, the spectrum sensing technology in maritime cognitive radio is more challenging than the spectrum sensing on land. In order to solve this problem, a cyclostationary detection algorithm for multiple antennas in fading model is proposed. A maximum ratio combining algorithm based on optimal weight correlation value (OWCV-MRC) is proposed for the diversity gain and system performance degradation caused by diversity technology on multipath fading channels. The algorithm uses the correlation values of the attenuation gains on the two different branches as the weighting coefficients of each branch, thus improving the coefficient matrix in the maximum ratio combining (MRC) algorithm. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can effectively detect the target signal in the fading channel with ultra-low signal to noise ratio (SNR).
