Cognitive radio (CR) has been proposed as a dynamic and adaptive spectrum sharing paradigm which will give opportunistic access of the vacant frequency bands to a group of users called cognitive radio users (secondary users) for whom the band has not been licensed. Fast and accurate spectrum sensing...
