17. OFDM challenges • co-channel and adjacent channel interferers • There are several spectrum shaping techniques that could be used to improve OFDM spectral leakage: • Introducing guard bands • Windowing • Power control per sub-carrier

18. TESTBED ARCHITECTURE AND IMPLEMENTATION • Berkeley Emulation Engine 2 (BEE2), which is a generic,multi-purpose, FPGA based, emulation platform for computationally intensive applications. • Each BEE2 can connect to 18 front-end boards via multi-gigabit interfaces. • The BEE2 consists of 5 Vertex-2 Pro 70 FPGAs. • Each FPGA can be connected to 4GB of memory with a raw memory throughput of 12.8Gps • All computation FPGAs are connected to the control FPGA via 20 Gbps links.

19. Modular front-end system • The analog/baseband board contains the filters, ADC/DAC chips and a Xilinx Vertex-II Pro FPGA • Digital-to-analog conversion is performed by a 14-bit DAC running up to 128MHz while analog-to-digital conversion is performed by a 12-bit ADC running up to 64MHz. • The FPGA performs data processing and control, and supports 4 optical 1.25 Gbs links for transmitting and receiving data to/from BEE2 • A separate RF modem module connects to the baseband board. • The RF frequency is fully programmable in the entire 80MHz ISM band.

20. Collaborative Spectrum Sensing for OpportunisticAccess in Fading Environments

21. Fading environment • Log-normal Shadowing • Rayleigh Fading

22. Collaborative Spectrum Sensing • In order to improve performance of spectrum sensing, we allow different secondary users to collaborate by sharing their information. • In order to minimize the communication overhead, users only share their final 1-bit decisions (H0 or H1) rather than their decision statistics • Let n denote the number of users collaborating. For simplicity we assume that all n users experience independent and identically distributed (iid) fading/shadowing with same average SNR • A secondary user receives decisions from n−1 other users and decides H1 if any of the total n individual decisions is H1. This fusion rule is known as the OR-rule or 1-out-of-nrule

23. Probabilities of detection and false-alarm • Probabilities of detection and false-alarm for the collaborative scheme (denoted by Qd and Qf respectively) may be written as follows : • where Pd and Pf are the individual probabilities of detection and false-alarm • This collaborative scheme increases probability of detection as well as probability of false-alarm

24. Probabilities of detection and false-alarm

25. COLLABORATIVE SPECTRUM SENSING UNDERSPATIALLY-CORRELATED SHADOWING • shadowing correlation would degrade performance of collaborative sensing when collaborating users are close

26. Question ? • How valid is the passive primary receiver assumption?

27. LO Leakage • We explore the possibility of detecting primary receivers by exploiting the local oscillator (LO) leakage power emitted by the RF front end of primary receivers • Modern day radio receivers are based to a large extent on the superheterodyne receiver architecture invented by Edwin Armstrong in 1918

28. LO Leakage Table • Over the years, improvements have been made to receiver architectures, resulting in reduced LO leakage power.

29. Detection of LO Leakage • Detecting this leakage power directly with a CR would be impractical for two reasons. • Firstly, it would be difficult for the receive circuitry of the CR to detect the LO leakage over larger distances. • The second reason that it would be impractical to detect the LO leakage directly is that the LO leakage power is very variable, depending on the receiver model and year

30. Sensor Node • We propose to build tiny, low cost sensor nodes that would be mounted close to the primary receivers • The node would first detect the LO leakage to determine which channel the receiver was tuned to. • It would then relay this information to the CR through a separate control channel using a fixed power level.

31. Sensor Architectire • Several detection schemes exist to detect low energy signals. • Regardless of the detection scheme, the front-end architecture of the node will be the same

32. Integration time vs. probability of error

33. PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENTS • There is no guarantee that a channel will be available • Assumption • Density of the primary receivers: D/km2 • Number of channels: M • Interference Radius of CR: R • All of the channels are equally likely to be used at any instance of time and the receivers are uniformly distributed

34. At a receiver density of 10,000/km2 and an interference radius of 250m the probability is 0.99 that at least one channel is available
