Chicken swarm optimization modelling for cognitive radio networks using deep belief network-enabled spectrum sensing technique

Cognitive radio networks (CRN) enable wireless devices to sense the radio spectrum, determine the frequency state channels, and reconfigure the communication variables to satisfy Quality of Service (QoS) needs by reducing energy utilization. In CRN, spectrum sensing is an essential process that is highly challenging and can be addressed by several traditional techniques, such as energy detection, match filtering, etc. For now, the current models’ performance is impacted by the comparatively low Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) of recognized signals and the insignificant quantity of traditional signal samples. This research proposals a new spectral sensing technique for cognitive radio networks (SST-CRN) that addresses the drawbacks of predictable energy detection models. With the use of a deep belief network (DBN), the suggested model contributes to accomplish a nonlinear threshold based on the chicken swarm algorithm (CSA). The proposed DBN enabled SST-CRN technique goes through two phases in a organized process: offline and online. Throughout the offline phase, the DBN model is methodically trained on pre-gathered data, developing the aptitude to identify problematic patterns and examples from the spectral features of the radio environment. This stage involves extensive feature extraction, validation, and model development to ensure that the DBN can professionally represent complicated spectral dynamics. Additionally, online spectrum sensing is conducted during the real communication phase to enable real-time adaptation to dynamic changes in the spectrum environment. Offline spectrum sensing is typically performed during a devoted sensing period before actual communication begins. When combined with DBN’s deep learning capabilities and CSO’s innate nature-inspired algorithms, a synergistic framework is created that enables CRNs to explore and allocate incidences on their own with astonishing accuracy. The proposed solution considerably improves the spectrum efficiency and resilience of CRNs by harnessing the power of DBN, which leads to more effective resource utilization and less interference. The Simulation results show that our proposed strategy produces more accurate spectrum occupancy assessments. The result parameters such as probability of detection, SNR of -24dB, the SST-CRN perfect has increased a developed Pd of 0.810, whereas the existing methods RMLSSCRN-100 and RMLSSCRN-300 have accomplished a lower Pd of 0.577 and 0.736, respectively. Our deep learning methodology uses convolutional neural networks to automatically learn and adapt to dynamic and complicated radio environments, improving accuracy and flexibility over classic spectrum sensing approaches. Future research might focus on improving CSO algorithms to better optimize the spectrum sensing process, enhancing the reliability of DBN-enabled sensing techniques.
