This document discusses spectrum sensing techniques for cognitive radio networks. It describes cognitive radio as allowing secondary users to opportunistically access spectrum holes not being used by primary users. It outlines non-cooperative and cooperative spectrum sensing schemes, and introduces a new Time Division Energy Efficient (TDEE) sensing technique. TDEE divides the sensing period into timeslots, with each secondary user detecting a different channel, allowing more efficient sensing than non-cooperative methods while sharing less control messages than cooperative schemes. The document provides an overview of these sensing methods and their advantages for cognitive radio networks operating with energy constraints.
