Location-aided Distributed Primary User Identification in a Cognitive Radio Scenario

Abstract

We address a cognitive radio scenario, where a number of secondary users performs identification of which primary user, if any, is transmitting, in a distributed way and using limited location information. We propose two fully distributed algorithms: the first is a direct identification scheme, and in the other a distributed sub-optimal detection based on a simplified Neyman-Pearson energy detector precedes the identification scheme. Both algorithms are studied analytically in a realistic transmission scenario, and the advantage obtained by detection pre-processing is also verified via simulation. Finally, we give details of their fully distributed implementation via consensus averaging algorithms.
