Abstract
In this paper, we propose multiple antennas-based energy detector utilising adaptive double-threshold for spectrum sensing, which enhances detection performance and overcomes sensing failure problem as well. The detection threshold is made adaptive to the fluctuation of the received signal power in each local detector of cognitive radio (CR) user. Numerical results show that by using multiple antennas at the CRs, it is possible to significantly improve detection performance at very low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). It is also found that when the number of antennas (Nr) increase, the probability of detection increases. Proposed work having Nr = 3 outperforms Nr = 1, 2 by 30.6 % and 10.5% at –12 dB SNR and probability of false alarm 0.1, respectively.
