Item Spectrum Occupancy Measurement in the VHF Band- Results and Evaluation in the Context of Cognitive Radio(International Engineering Conference (IEC) 2019, 2019) Ajiboye, Johnson Adegbenga; Adegboye B.A; Aibinu A.M; Kolo J.GIn this paper the results of spectrum occupancy survey in the context of Cognitive Radio was presented. In Cognitive Radio, secondary unlicensed users are allowed to opportunistically use the primary licensed users’ bands with the understanding that there will be no interference i.e Secondary Users (SU) quits at the arrival of Primary Users (PU). A 24-hour measurement survey was carried out at the centre of Minna metropolis in Niger State, Nigeria covering a frequency range of VHF (30-300MHz). Aaronia HF 6065 V4 spectrum analyzer was used for data collection. Results show that the band allocated for Aeronautical Navigation has the highest spectral occupancy of 39.83% followed by the FM band with occupancy of 12.90% while the frequency band meant for Aeronautical Mobile and Space Operation has occupancy of 4.73% and TV Broadcasting 0.09%. The average occupancy of the VHF band is 14.39%.Item One–Bit Compressive Sensing Algorithm for Wideband Spectrum Sensing: A Review(I3C 2024, 2024-04-22) Majin R.N; Kolo J.G; Dauda U.S; Ajiboye, Johnson AdegbengaSpectrum sensing (SS) is one of the most important techniques in wireless communication for understanding the radio environment. SS techniques, however, are ineffective since they require costly, impractical high-rate analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) for timely communications. However, there are challenges and limitations in traditional spectrum sensing techniques (SSTs), including estimation of sparsity level, selection of the number of measurements, noise uncertainty, receiver uncertainty, sensitivity at low signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) values, and interference from channel coding. One-bit compression (CS) has been seen as a promising sensing technique that allows extremely easy, efficient, and fast sampling and quantization for wideband spectrum sensing. It can be used in cognitive radio (CR) communication by making use of sparsity in spectrum occupancy brought about by underutilization of the spectrum. In this paper, we provide an overview of compressive spectrum sensing (CSS) algorithms in wideband CR, the current state-of-the-art of CSS in wideband spectrum sensing (WBSS) communication, and its advantages and limitations.
