Abstract

Most of existing works on spectrum sensing detect primary transmitters while the purpose of spectrum sensing is to avoid interfering with primary receivers (PRs). Therefore, it is more important to detect PRs. In this paper, we propose a proactive spectrum sensing method that detects whether a PR is within the coverage or the interference range of a CR transmitter by exploiting the close-loop power control policy in primary systems. With the proposed scheme, the CR user may still access the spectrum band even though a primary signal is present as long as its transmission does not interfere with the PR. Simulation results show the advantages of the proposed method.
