Abstract

Recently, a spectrum sensing technique employing the maximum value of a received power spectrum as a test statistic has been presented in the literature for the purpose of detecting a wireless microphone signal in TV bands This detects the presence of a primary user by comparing the test statistic with some threshold, which depends on the background noise power level as well as a target false alarm rate. Therefore its performance may deteriorate when the noise power uncertainty occurs. As a means to mitigate this difficulty, we present a spectrum sensing strategy adopting the ratio of the maximum and the minimum value of the power spectrum as a test statistic and analyze its performance of spectrum sensing.

TV 대역에 나타날 수 있는 무선 마이크 신호를 검출하는 방안으로 전력 스펙트럼의 최대값을 시험 통계량으로 사용하는 방안이 최근 발표되었다. 이 방식은 시험 통계량을 임계값과 비교하여 우선 사용자의 유무를 판정하는데, 이때 임계값은 목표로 하는 오경보 확률뿐만 아니라 배경 잡음 전력 수준에 따라 달라진다. 따라서 잡음 전력에 대한 불확실성이 존재하는 경우 그로 인한 성능 저하가 발생할 수 있다. 이에 대한 해결책으로 본 논문은 전력 스펙트럼의 최대값과 최소값의 비율을 시험 통계량으로 사용하는 방식을 제안하고, 그 분석 결과를 제시하고자 한다.
