Sightless but Not Blind: A Non-Ideal Spectrum Sensing Algorithm Countering Intelligent Jamming for Wireless Communication

Abstract

Aiming at the existing intelligent anti-jamming communication methods that fail to consider the problem that sensing is inaccurate, this paper puts forward an intelligent anti-jamming method for wireless communication under non-ideal spectrum sensing (NISS). Under the malicious jamming environment, the wireless communication system uses Q-learning (QL) to learn the change law of jamming, and considers the false alarm and missed detection probability of jamming sensing, and selects the channel with long-term optimal reporting in each time slot for communication. The simulation results show that under linear sweep jamming and intelligent blocking jamming, the proposed algorithm converges faster than QL with the same decision accuracy. Compared with wide-band spectrum sensing (WBSS), an algorithm which failed to consider non-ideal spectrum sensing, the decision accuracy of the proposed algorithm is higher with the same convergence rate.
