Abstract: | Spectrum sensing is one of the major challenges for commercial development of cognitive radio systems, since the detection of the presence of a primary user is a complex task that requires high reliability. This work proposes a signal classifier capable of detecting and identifying a primary user signal on a given channel of the radio spectrum. The proposed approach combines eigen-decomposition techniques and neural networks not only to decide about the presence of a primary user, but also to identify the primary user signal type, a feature that is not encountered in the current approaches proposed in literature. Besides the advantage of identifying the primary user type, the proposed method also considerably reduces the computational cost of the detection process. The proposed classification method has been applied to the development of five primary user signal Classification Modules, which includes wireless microphone, orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing and Digital Video Broadcasting-Terrestrial signals. The results show that the proposed classifier correctly detects and identifies the primary users, even under low signal to noise ratio and multipath scenarios. |
