Abstract

This paper aims to enhance the effectiveness of the present spectrum and efficiency of cognitive radio and use the reinforcement learning model to enhance its security. It incorporates a concept that detects the presence of licensed primary users in a channel and assigns channels to secondary users automatically without the need for user intervention where the primary users are not present. An LDPC decoder used at the receiver’s end allows for error detection and correction considering situations where noisy channels manipulate data. The LDPC decoder and software portion of cognitive radio, that is implemented using the energy detection method, are done using LabVIEW software and the reinforcement learning model which use the deep Q-learning algorithm is developed using Python.
