USRP Implementation of Spectrum Sensing OFDM-Based Cognitive Radio Networks Using Energy Ratio Algorithm

Abstract

This paper explains the Universal Software Radio Peripheral (USRP) Experiment results of Spectrum Sensing Algorithms based on the Energy Ration Algorithm for Cognitive Radio Networks which is latterly suggested in Spectrum observation for OFDM-Based Cognitive Radio Networks by using Energy Ratio Algorithm. This is completed through detecting the variance in the strength of the signal during a variety of confined OFDM subcarriers are used to ensure that the availability of the essential user is facilely discovered. Extensive experiments are performed, in particular, the effects of Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR). This paper observed that the experimental results gave lower detection performance compared to the simulation results. That’s due to existence of other systems which operate on same frequency band of 2.4GHz.
