This work proposes a novel algorithm for energyefficient and reliable spectrum sensing in a cognitive network. The algorithm relies on cooperation between secondary devices, that organize themselves in clusters defined according to both sensing reliability and energy efficiency. The proposed algorithm is compared by means of computer simulations with a simpler, non cluster-based cooperative sensing scheme. Simulation results highlight that the adoption of an energy-efficient, sensing-aware clustering algorithm in the sensing procedure can significantly improve both sensing reliability and network lifetime in secondary cognitive networks. © 2009 IEEE.

Abstract
This work proposes a novel algorithm for energyefficient and reliable spectrum sensing in a cognitive network. The algorithm relies on cooperation between secondary devices, that organize themselves in clusters defined according to both sensing reliability and energy efficiency. The proposed algorithm is compared by means of computer simulations with a simpler, non cluster-based cooperative sensing scheme. Simulation results highlight that the adoption of an energy-efficient, sensing-aware clustering algorithm in the sensing procedure can significantly improve both sensing reliability and network lifetime in secondary cognitive networks. © 2009 IEEE.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
