Title
Deep STFT-CNN for Spectrum Sensing in Cognitive Radio
Abstract
Spectrum sensing is one of the crucial technologies used to solve the shortage of spectrum resources. In this letter, based on the short-time Fourier transform (STFT) and convolutional neural network (CNN), we firstly develop a STFT-CNN method for spectrum sensing. The proposed method exploits the time-frequency domain information of the signal samples and achieves the state of the art detection performance. In particular, the method is suitable for various primary users' signals and does not need any priori information. Besides, we also analyze the signal-to-noise ratio robustness and the generalization ability of the proposed algorithm. Finally, simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms other popular spectrum sensing methods. Notably, the proposed method can achieve a detection probability of 90.2% with a false alarm probability of 10% at SNR = -15dB.
