Reconfigurable Sensing Time in Cooperative Cognitive Network Using Machine Learning

A cognitive radio network(CRN)intelligently utilizes the available spectral resources by sensing and learning from the radio environment to maximize spectrum utilization.In CRNs,the secondary users(SUs)opportunistically access the primary users(PUs)spectrum.Therefore,unambiguous detection of the PU channel occupancy is the most critical aspect of the operations of CRNs.Cooperative spectrum sensing(CSS)is rated as the best choice for making reliable sensing decisions.This paper employs machinelearning tools to sense the PU channels reliably in CSS.The sensing parameters are reconfigured to maximize the spectrum utilization while reducing sensing error and cost with improved channel throughput.The fine-k-nearest neighbor algorithm(FKNN),employed in this paper,estimates the number of samples based on the nature of the channel under-specific detection and false alarm probability demands.The simulation results reveal that the sensing cost is suppressed by reducing the sensing time and exploiting the traditional fusion rules,validating the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.Furthermore,the global decision made at the fusion center(FC)based on the modified sensing samples,results low energy consumption,higher throughput,and improved detection with low error probabilities.

An Intelligent Hybrid Mutual Authentication Scheme for Industrial Internet of Thing Networks

Internet of Things(IoT)network used for industrial management is vulnerable to different security threats due to its unstructured deployment,and dynamic communication behavior.In literature various mechanisms addressed the security issue of Industrial IoT networks,but proper maintenance of the performance reliability is among the common challenges.In this paper,we proposed an intelligent mutual authentication scheme leveraging authentication aware node(AAN)and base station(BS)to identify routing attacks in Industrial IoT networks.The AAN and BS uses the communication parameter such as a route request(RREQ),node-ID,received signal strength(RSS),and round-trip time(RTT)information to identify malicious devices and routes in the deployed network.The feasibility of the proposed model is validated in the simulation environment,where OMNeT++was used as a simulation tool.We compare the results of the proposed model with existing field-proven schemes in terms of routing attacks detection,communication cost,latency,computational cost,and throughput.The results show that our proposed scheme surpasses the previous schemes regarding these performance parameters with the attack detection rate of 97.7%.
