Cyclostationary feature detection is capable of improving sensing performance in Cognitive Radio systems. The maximum over spectral on cyclostationary domain is called α-domain. α-domain feature detection will greatly reduce computational complexity with respect to prior-knowledge of carrier frequency. To select the threshold for α-domain feature detection under a given noise level and miss detection probability Pf, we need the expression of α-domain noise distribution. In this paper, Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) distribution is introduced and found as the noise distribution on α-domain. Maximum likelihood estimation is applied to estimate the parameters of GEV distribution. Based on GEV distribution, close form of detection threshold λth in terms of false alarm probability Pf is obtained. The validation of α-domain noise distribution is confirmed by the Monte-Carlo simulation.
