Detection of signals containing sine-wave components through measurement of the power spectral density (PSD) and cyclic spectrum

摘要

A Wireless Regional Area Network (WRAN) receiver comprises a transceiver for communicating with a wireless network over one of a number of channels, and a signal detector for use in forming a supported channel list comprising those ones of the number of channels upon which an Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) DTV (digital television) broadcast signal was not detected. The signal detector performs spectrum sensing as a function of power spectral density (PSD) and cyclic spectrum.
