Comparative sensitivity analysis of energy detection techniques for cognitive radio application

With sensitivity being an important factor in spectrum sensing based Cognitive Radio (CR) application; it remains unclear which out of the many existing Energy Detector (ED) techniques provides the best sensitivity performance for CR application. Consequently, this paper reports a study of some k...
