ABSTRACT

This paper proposes a cooperative censoring spectrum sensing scheme based on dependent function of extension theory for Cognitive Radio Sensor Networks (CRSN). The scheme uses the dependent function of Extension theory to identify the presence or absence of the licensed user's (LU) signal, and then calculate the related degree through dependent function to identify the initial test results of licensed users, and then send these results to the fusion center. Use a trust evaluation scheme based on noise jamming and channel attenuation for each node, and then this trust evaluation result of each node is sent to the fusion center. The fusion center makes the final decision by the K-M rule. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme could improve the detect probability effectively.
