In cognitive radio networks, systems operating in digital television white spaces are particularly interesting for practical applications. In this paper, we consider single- antenna and multi-antenna spectrum sensing of real DVB-T signals under different channel conditions. Some of the most important algorithms are considered and compared, including energy detection, eigenvalue based techniques and methods exploiting OFDM signal knowledge. The obtained results show the algorithm performance and hierarchy in terms of ROC and detection probability under fixed false alarm rate, for different channel profiles in case of true DVB-T signals.

Abstract
In cognitive radio networks, systems operating in digital television white spaces are particularly interesting for practical applications. In this paper, we consider single- antenna and multi-antenna spectrum sensing of real DVB-T signals under different channel conditions. Some of the most important algorithms are considered and compared, including energy detection, eigenvalue based techniques and methods exploiting OFDM signal knowledge. The obtained results show the algorithm performance and hierarchy in terms of ROC and detection probability under fixed false alarm rate, for different channel profiles in case of true DVB-T signals.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
