Abstract-Cognitive Radio (CR) is one of the most promising techniques for optimizing the spectrum usage. However, the large amount of data of spectral information that must be processed to identify and assign spectral resources increases the channel assignment times, therefore worsening the quality of service for the devices using the spectrum. Compressive Sensing (CS) is a digital processing technique that allows the reconstruction of sparse or compressible signals using fewer samples than those required traditionally. This paper presents a model that addresses the Spectral Sensing problem in Cognitive Radio using Compressive Sensing as an effective way of decreasing the number of samples required in the sensing process. This model is based on Compressive Spectral Imaging (CSI) architectures where a centralized spectrum manager selects what power data must be delivered by the different wireless devices using binary patterns, and builds a multispectral data cube image with the geographical and spectral data power information. The results show that this multispectral data cube can be built with only a 50% of the samples generated by the devices and, therefore reducing the data traffic dramatically.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
