摘要

As traditional spectrum sensing approaches unable to deal with the contradiction between detection accuracy and complexity in cognitive radio network, a novel q-weighed sequential cooperative energy detection method for spectrum sensing in time varying channel is proposed in this paper to achieve better performance with less computional complexity. By adding the qweighted log likelihood ratio (LLR) of the past local observations from previous sensing slots to the current LLR sequentially, cognitive radio nodes can aggregate the current and previous received energy values to yield the improvement of sensing performance. Moreover, we pose a q-weighted K-out-of-N voting rule at the fusion center to minimize the total error probability. For different probability of primary signal for turning its state from active to idle, we employ corresponding different weighted value q to make the sensing scheme more flexible and efficient.
