“…There are several algorithms that belong to the class of Bayesian inference algorithms and are known as message-passing algorithms [10], which, along with their variations [11][12][13], have been proven to be near-optimal in many optimization and inference problems. These algorithms constitute an appealing distributed computational scheme, which takes advantage of their local structure, by conveying iterative messages along the edges of a factor graph, with each message being updated by the messages coming in from the adjacent nodes.…”

Consider a random network of static primary wireless sources and a co-located network of secondary wireless devices. The channel coefficients between the two networks are assumed to be known to the secondary users (SUs), e.g., using radio environment maps (REM). However, the operational state of the sources is unknown due to intermittency. In this paper, we study the performance of primary source detection by SUs using a message-passing algorithm. Additionally, we employ methods from statistical mechanics, in particular, the Replica approach, to obtain analytic results for the performance of such networks in the large system-size limit. We test the results through a large-scale simulation analysis, obtaining good agreement. The proposed method provides a simple way to evaluate the performance of the system and assess how it depends on the macroscopic parameters that characterize it, such as the average density of SUs and sources and the signal-to-noise ratio. The main contribution of this paper is the application of an algorithm that quantitatively predicts the parameter value region for which accurate and reliable detection of the operational state of the primary sources can be achieved in a fast and decentralized manner.
