To overcome the challenge of high sampling rate in traditional spectral estimation methods, Compressed Sensing (CS) theory is developed. A sparsity and compression ratio joint adjustment algorithm for compressed spectrum sensing in CR network is investigated, with the hypothesis that the sparsity level is unknown as priori knowledge at CR terminals. As perfect spectrum reconstruction is not necessarily required during spectrum detection process, the proposed algorithm only performs a rough estimate of sparsity level. Meanwhile, in order to further reduce the sensing measurement, different compression ratios for CR terminals with varying Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) are considered. The proposed algorithm, which optimizes the compression ratio as well as the estimated sparsity level, can greatly reduce the sensing measurement without degrading the detection performance. It also requires less steps of iteration for convergence. Corroborating simulation results are presented to testify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm for collaborative spectrum sensing.展开更多

In CR system (CRS), to efficiently utilize the spectrum resource, one important issue is to allocate the sensing and transmission duration reasonably. In this paper, the evaluation metric of energy efficiency, which represented the total number of bits that were delivered with per joule of energy consumed, is adopted to evaluate the proposed scheme. We study a joint design of energy efficient sensing and transmission durations to maximize energy efficiency capacity (EEC) of CRS. The tradeoff between EEC and sensing and transmission durations are formulized as an optimization problem under constraints on target detection probability of secondary users (SUs) and toleration interference threshold of primary users (PUs). To obtain the optimal solution, optimizing sensing duration and transmission duration will be first performed separately. Then, a joint optimization iterative algorithm is proposed to search the optimal pair of sensing and transmission durations. Analytical and simulation results show that there exists a unique duration pair where the EEC is maximized, and that the EEC of the proposed joint optimization algorithm outperforms that of existed algorithms. Furthermore, the simulation results also reveal that the performance of the proposed low complexity iterative algorithm is comparable with that of the exhaustive search scheme.展开更多
