Abstract
Spectrum sensing is one of the main tasks of cognitive radio, it decides whether the spectrum band is occupied by the primary or not. One of the techniques of spectrum sensing is energy detection (ED). Theory and simulation of ED are well established, however the real measurement of ED performance is not many, especially using Universal Software Radio Peripheral (USRP) B200 at Wi-Fi frequency. So, real measurement of ED performance using USRP B200 is collected and compared with theory. The result shows, that the ED performance measured using USRP B200 follows the theory.
