Abstract

In this paper, we propose a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) enhanced spectrum sensing system, in which the primary transmitter is equipped with a single antenna, the secondary transmitter is equipped with multiple antennas, and the RIS is employed to reduce the required signal samples while realizing a high detection probability. Without loss of generality, we adopt the maximum eigenvalue detection approach, and propose a corresponding analytical framework based on random matrix theory, to evaluate the detection probability in the asymptotic regime. Besides, the RIS is configured with only the statistical channel state information to avoid realtime channel estimation. With the statistical configuration, the asymptotic distributions of the equivalent channel gains are derived. Then, we provide the theoretical predictions about the number of reflecting elements required to achieve a detection probability close to 1. Finally, we present the Monte-Carlo simulation results to evaluate the accuracy of the proposed asymptotic analytical framework for the detection probability and the validity of the theoretical predictions about the number of REs required to achieve a detection probability close to 1. Moreover, the simulation results show that the proposed RIS-enhanced spectrum sensing system can substantially improve the detection performance.
