Supplementary Material to “Distributed Consensus-based Weight Design for Cooperative Spectrum Sensing”

Abstract

Abstract—This material is a supplement to the paper “Distributed Consensus-based Weight Design for Cooperative Spectrum Sensing”. Section 1 offers related literature review on cooperative spectrum sensing and consensus algorithms. Section 2 presents related notations and models of the consensus-based graph theory. Section 3 offers further analysis of the proposed spectrum sensing scheme including detection threshold settings and convergence properties in terms of detection performance. Section 4 presents the proofs for the convergence of the proposed consensus algorithm, and discusses the convergence of the proposed algorithm under random link failure network models. Section 5 shows additional simulation results.
