Abstract

One of the most challenging issues in Cognitive Radio Networks (CRN) is to detect Primary User Emulation Attack (PUEA). In the absence of Primary Users (PU), the attackers mimic PUs’ signal characteristics to fool legitimate Secondary Users (SU) that evacuate the channel for them, in order to use the channel selfishly. Many works have been done to detect PUEA; among them, localization and encryption and so on are the examples. Recently, game theory has been used to detect PUEA. In this paper, a method based on game theory is proposed, that without using any complex calculation and second methods (RSS, GPS and so on), PUEA can be detected. This method is especially proposed for MANET and can be used in any circumstance of CRNs (ad-hoc, centralized, distributed…). It is reliable, with minimum miss detection and no false alarm of PU. Simulation results show that the proposed method has good operations even in dense networks and ultra-dense networks.
