Most of the current frequency hopping (FH) based dynamic spectrum access (DSA) methods concern a reactive channel access scheme with synchronous inter-channel spectrum sensing, i.e., FH is reactively triggered by the primary user (PU)'s return reported by spectrum sensing, and the PU channel to be switched to is assumed precisely just sensed or ready to be sensed, as if the inter-channel spectrum sensing moments are synchronous. However, the inter-channel spectrum sensing moments are more likely to be asynchronous, which risks PU suffering more interference. Moreover, the spectrum sensing is usually erroneous, which renders the problem more complex. To address this problem, we propose a proactive FH based DSA method against both erroneous spectrum sensing and asynchronous inter-channel spectrum sensing (moments). We term it as proactive DSA. The optimal FH sequence is obtained by dynamic programming. The complexity is also analyzed. Finally, the simulation results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method.

본 논문에서는 인지 라디오 네트워크를 구성하는 기본요소와, 그를 위협하는 공격 유형에 대하여 살펴본다. 특히, SSDF (Spectrum Sensing Data Falsification) 공격에 대하여 자세히 살펴보고, 이를 극복하기 위한 해법을 제시한다. SSDF 공격은 실현하기 쉬운 반면, 이를 탐지하고 대응하기 위하여 많은 노력이 필요하다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 기법은 악의적인 사용자와 그들의 센싱 리포트를 구분해 내기 위하여 이상 탐지 (Anomaly Detection) 기술을 사용 한다. 제안하는 기법의 유효성을 검증하기 위하여 시뮬레이션을 수행 하였으며, 그 결과 비정상적인 센싱 리포트를 효과적으로 구분해 내고 활성화 된 주 사용자(Primary User)를 정확히 탐지해 내는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다.

Voice service is very demanding in cognitive radio networks (CRNs). The available spectrum in a CRN for CR users varies owing to the presence of licensed users. On the other hand, voice packets are delay sensitive and can tolerate a limited amount of delay. This makes the support of voice traffic in a CRN a complicated task that can be achieved by devising necessary considerations regarding the various network functionalities. In this paper, the support of secondary voice users in a CRN is investigated. First, a novel packet scheduling scheme that can provide the required quality of service (QoS) to voice users is proposed. The proposed scheme utilizes the maximum packet transmission rate for secondary voice users by assigning each secondary user the channel with the best level of quality. Furthermore, an analytical framework developed for a performance analysis of the system, is described in which the effect of erroneous spectrum sensing on the performance of secondary voice users is also taken into account. The QoS parameters of secondary voice users, which were obtained analytically, are also detailed. The analytical results were verified through the simulation, and will provide helpful insight in supporting voice services in a CRN.
