Title
Blind Compressive Spectrum Sensing in Cognitive Internet of Things.
Abstract
The increasing number of Internet of things (IoT) objects has been a growing challenge of the current spectrum supply. To handle this issue, the IoT devices should have cognitive capabilities to detect and access the unoccupied portion of the wideband spectrum. However, most IoT devices are difficult to perform wideband spectrum sensing using either conventional Nyquist sampling system or sub-Nyquist sampling system since both the power-hungry sampling components and specialized sub-Nyquist sampling hardware are unrealistic in the power-constrained IoT paradigm. In this paper, we propose a blind sub-Nyquist sensing scheme by utilizing the surround IoT devices to jointly sample the spectrum based on the multi-coset sampling theory. Thus, only the off-the-shelf low-rate analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) on the IoT devices are required to form coset samplers and only the minimum number of coset samplers are adopted without the prior knowledge of the number of occupied channels. The experimental results on both the simulated and real-time signals verify the theoretical results and the effectiveness of the proposed scheme. At the meanwhile, it is shown that the adaptive number of coset samplers could be adopted without causing the degradation of the detection performance.
