Cognitive Radio
• Cognitive Radio targets the problem of spectrum scarcity by dynamically exploiting the underutilisation of the spectrum among the operators.
• Operation: Access the spectrum of another system, called “primary system”, with minimum interference and without impact on the QoS of the primary system.

Spectrum Sensing
Aims at identifying the instantaneous spectrum status to use the unoccupied portions.
High sensing requirements should be satisfied to avoid interference.
Usually performed in a collaborative approach, called collaborative spectrum sensing (CSS).

• For L channels, the average achievable throughput can be expressed as follows:
Where P0 : the probability that the channel is idle. R: the data rate. Tt : the transmission time.

• Once two channels have equal noise variance (σ ), the same no. of samples should be collected from both.
• If the noise variance is larger than detection threshold (λ) , the number of samples is zero.
• For a maximum throughput, if the channel has a noise variance more than the detection threshold, it should not be sensed.

Conclusions
• Optimization of the number of samples from each channel in
multi channel spectrum sensing is addressed.
• Three different setups have been considered:
• Throughput maximization with a constraint on the total
number of samples.
• Interference minimization with a constraint on the total
number of samples.
• Energy minimization with a constraint on the achievable
throughput.
• Approximated solutions have been proposed for the optimal
number samples to be collected from each channel for each
setup.

Conclusions
• Mathematical and simulation results allow to conclude that:
• For maximum throughput, if the channel has a noise variance higher than the detection threshold, it should not be sensed.
• For minimum interference, if the channel has a sum of noise and signal variances lower than the detection threshold, it should not be sensed.
• For minimum energy consumption, if the channel has a noise variance higher than the detection threshold, it should not be sensed.
