Neuromorphic Spectrum Occupancy Learning in Cognitive Cloud Radio Access System Conference Paper uri icon

abstract

  • This paper presents a neuromorphic spectrum occupancy learning using convolutional neural networks and long short-term memory, in a cognitive radio enabled cloud radio access system. Cloud radio access networks can prove useful in future generation wireless communication systems, because of their distributed signal processing capability. Owing to its excellent noise immunity property, cyclostationarity-based spectrum sensing is utilized as the method to detect the active sub-bands at the baseband unit. However, the accuracy of sensing is corrupted due to impairments, such as chromatic dispersion, caused by the optical fiber front-haul channel. Hence, application of deep learning techniques like convolutional neural networks and long short-term memory are necessary to compensate for the front-haul channel. Our simulation results indicate that the proposed method can lead to improved signal detection in presence of optical fiber impairment in cloud radio system. © 2022 IEEE.
