Abstract

This letter proposes a probability-based scheme for combination of spectrum sensing information collected from cooperative cognitive radio users. The proposed scheme enables combination of both synchronous and asynchronous sensing information by utilizing the statistics of licensed band occupancy and is superior to conventional schemes in terms of detection performance.
