Abstract

Primary user emulation attack (PUEA) is a typical threat in the cognitive radio networks (CRN). In this paper, in order to detect the PUEA, we propose a detection method according to the characteristics of wireless channel. Using the multipath delay characteristics of the fading channels, PUEA can be detected by the secondary users (SUs). The performance of the proposed PUEA detection method is theoretically analyzed, and the closed-form expression of detection performance is derived. Simulation results illustrate that the proposed PUEA detection method achieves high detection probability in terms of low false positive probability.
