Security issues and challenges in cognitive radio network : a comprehensive study
Kaustav Ghosh
Abstract
In the present paper the author will discuss the cognitive radio network (CRN) architectures as well as the various layers of CRN. The author will focus on security issues in CRN. As CRNs are a special kind of Ad Hoc network only, most of the attacks subjected to Ad Hoc networks can also target CRNs. The work analyzes the various attacks that are most relevant to CRNs and ways to defend against them.
