Spectrum Sensing for Symmetric α-Stable Noise Model With Convolutional Neural Networks
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The key role of spectrum sensing in cognitive radios attracted substantial research attention to improve the performance of detectors. We consider a general model for the receiver noise with the potential of generalization towards modeling noise in various environments. This general noise model describes accurately noise characteristics ranging from the Gaussian noise to the severe impulsive noise. However, many previous studies are based on the ideal Gaussian noise, and they cannot capture the non-Gaussian models. To provide a robust detector against different behaviors of the noise in various environments, we employ a convolutional neural network (CNN) compatible with different noise models. The proposed CNN detector is data-driven, and due to its single-dimensional input layer, it is consistent with the received signal and requires no pre-processing. The likelihood ratio test (LRT), the Wald, and the Rao tests for this problem are derived to enrich the paper with comparative evaluations of the proposed CNN and conventional model-based approaches and other neural networks. Although various simulated scenarios substantiate the general superiority and robustness of the CNN-based against impulsive noise and mismatch of parameters, it requires higher computational complexity than other discussed detectors.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
