Abstract
The lack of spectrum for communication and for research is a bottleneck as far as technology and business development is considered. It is a fact that the availability of useful spectrum is limited by hardware constraints. The studies conducted by the Federal Communications Commission found that that there are many areas of the radio spectrum which are not fully utilized in different geographical areas of the country and FCC recommended locating and utilizing these unused spectrum spaces by other users. This is where spectrum sensing comes into use. From then on different spectrum sensing algorithms were developed. The paper implements four of those major sensing spectrum algorithms in MATLAB-Simulink and also does a performance comparison among them.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
