Abstract

This paper is concerned with cooperative spectrum sensing (CSS) in cognitive wireless radio networks (CWRNs). A practical scenario is investigated where all channels suffer from Nakagami-m fading. Specifically, we analyse the probabilities of missed detection and false alarm for two CSS schemes where the collaboration is carried out either at fusion centre (FC) only or at both the FC and secondary user (SU). By deriving closed-form expressions and bounds of these probabilities, we not only show that there are significant impacts of the m-parameter of Nakagami fading realisation for different channel links on the sensing performance but also evaluate and compare the effectiveness of the two CSS schemes with respect to various fading parameters and the number of SUs. Finally, numerical results are provided to validate the theoretical analysis and findings.
