On the Eigenvalue Based Detection for Multiantenna Cognitive Radio System

الملخص EN

Eigenvalue based spectrum sensing can make detection by catching correlation features in space and time domains, which can not only reduce the effect of noise uncertainty, but also achieve high detection probability.

Hence, the eigenvalue based detection is always a hot topic in spectrum sensing area.

However, most existing algorithms only consider part of eigenvalues rather than all the eigenvalues, which does not make full use of correlation of eigenvalues.

Motivated by this, this paper focuses on multiantenna system and makes all the eigenvalues weighted for detection.

Through the analysis of system model, we transfer the eigenvalue weighting issue to an optimal problem and derive the theoretical expression of detection threshold and probability of false alarm and obtain the close form expression of optimal solution.

Finally, we propose new weighting schemes to give promotions of the detection performance.

Simulations verify the efficiency of the proposed algorithms.
