Abstract: In this paper, a cyclo-energy detector is proposed for the spectrum sensing problem based on the cyclostationary signal analysis. The proposed detector can determine the existence of primary user by estimating the primary user's received power according to the cyclostationarity features of the secondary user. By using this detector, the secondary user does not need to stop transmitting signals when sensing the frequency spectrum. Simulation results are presented to confirm the performance of the proposed detector. (C) 2011 Elsevier GmbH. All rights reserved.
