Spectrum sensing is a key technology in cognitive radio and attracts much attention from wireless communication field.Based on comparison of the three common spectrum sensing methods,an energy detection algorithm based on wavelet packet transform under unknown noise is proposed.By means of wavelet packet transform,the noise power and signal power are estimated,and the threshold for spectrum sensing is obtained.The simulation shows that the proposed algorithm has the robustness to the noise uncertainty and is a quite promising technology for CR applications.
