“…Sensing un-utilized spectrum in wireless environment [14,15] is one of the significant challenges in CR network. In order to enhance spectrum utilization, CSS which takes advantage of special diversity is recommended for wireless environment [16][17][18][19]. However, reporting time is a drawback of CSS as it requires local sensing reports of each SU over a shared control channel, which is band limited.…”

Radio spectrum (3 KHz to 300 GHz) is a limited natural resource and efficient utilization of the spectrum can be accomplished by cognitive radio (CR). In CR, spectrum sensing is one of the significant challenging issues. Cooperative spectrum sensing (CSS) based CR is a captivating solution to enhance spectrum sensing. In CSS, multiple secondary users (SUs) report their results to fusion center (FC) and final decision is taken on the status of the primary user (PU) based on the predetermined fusion rule. This cooperative decision in CSS based CR, improves the spectrum sensing performance. Nevertheless, the foremost drawback in CSS is low throughput due to reporting time introduced by the multiple SUs. We propose a novel method to reduce the reporting time so as to enhance the throughput performance for the same number of SUs in CSS based CR. In the proposed scheme k SUs, where k is even, are divided into two groups, each with k/2 users. Two groups report their sensing results to two FCs separately and final decision is taken by the third FC. Consequently, the reporting time is condensed in the proposed scheme. The sensing performance of the proposed CSS (PCSS) for all possible fusion rules is reviewed. Analytical expressions for probability of false alarm, probability of detection and throughput are derived for PCSS. Both simulation results and theoretical analyses validate that PCSS improves throughput significantly when compared with CSS.
