Performance of a cognitive radio network (CRN) can be degraded by a primary user emulation attack (PUEA). Cognitive Radio (CR) is a potential answer for radio spectrum inefficiency issue. Primary user emulation (PUE) assault is a genuine risk to cognitive radio systems. This problem can be eliminated by disconnecting malicious user from base station after classification process. In this work, K nearest neighbor classifier (KNN) is used to classify the malicious users. KNN is trained by using parameters such data rate, distance, power, frequency of request etc. Also, proposed work is compared with artificial neural network (ANN) which is trained by the same parameters used for KNN training. Security of the network is improved by using Elliptical Curve Cryptography (ECC) as data encryption. Trained classifier can detect the emulating users with high accuracy due to significant parameter selection. To validate the performance, accuracy and sensitivity analysis are carried out, simulation results show that the proposed work performs better in terms of accuracy as compared to that of conventional PUEA classification techniques.

In this work we are involved in determining the direction of arrival estimation of the signals. For accomplishing this task, we are involved in using genetic algorithm method. Here are many methods of direction of arrival methods, such as MUSIC algorithm, Minimum Norm Method, ESPRIT. Among all the previously existing techniques, MUSIC algorithm is best method of direction arrival estimation method. But the MUSIC algorithm will take more time when compared to the genetic algorithm. If the signal is having more noise conditions, then MUSIC algorithm will not perform well when compared to the genetic algorithm. For 0db SNR, the DOA for the Genetic algorithm is 0.01 % varying but for the same SNR, in the case of MUSIC algorithm, DOS is 5% variation is observed. For a given SNR, the DOA estimated for 4 element antenna array in the case of Genetic algorithm is not observed for the MUSIC algorithm for the same signal SNR and number of antenna elements. Here a comparative study between the Genetic Algorithm and MUSIC algorithm performance is studied. The application can be included in the advanced system where a wireless device can detect the DOA very accurately without doing the more computations. The algorithms are implemented by using the MATLAB tool.

As the technologies leaning towards digitalization, there has been extensive scope for researches in the field of Software Defined Networking. The architectural framework makes the life of network administrators easy by decoupling the data plane and the control plane. This architecture exploits easy configuration of network, thus providing programmable terminal for development of applications related to security, management and logging while the centralized controller gives much more control over entire network. This type of network is at risk due to attacks by the intruders with an intention to slow down or shut down the entire network. One such kind of attacks is DoS attack. DoS attack involves flooding of fake packet flows from a single source into the original packet flow. DDoS is a type of DoS attack where multiple compromised systems, which are often infected with malicious programs, are used to target a single system. Hence to achieve security in distributed environment, it is important to reduce the effect of such attacks. In this paper an approach of mitigating Distributed DoS has been discussed. Approach first detects DDoS using Entropy Detection attack and then uses Bandwidth Prediction method to mitigate it. Entropy is basically used for measuring randomness in the system and there are two essential components to DDoS detection using entropy; window size and threshold.

In this paper, a comparative analysis of BER performance of various higher order digital modulation techniques for channel utilization is proposed and the analysis are carried out with SNR as the reference parameter. This performance analysis yields to adaptive modulation technique which can be used to attain high spectral efficiency by modulating the signal at higher order modulation schemes based on channel state information (CSI) from the receiver. Signal over AWGN channel is assumed for the analysis. To achieve lower BER values for a specific SNR, techniques to alter signal characteristics like pulse shaping filters, matching filters and convolution encoding are applied and analysis are carried out. An observation from the above analysis produces lower BER. For 256-QAM at SNR of 20, BER of 4.76×10−3 and grey coded BER of 3.83×10−4 is obtained. Highest possible modulation technique is selected with lower BER obtained. Thus, spectral efficiency which is the prime objective of the proposed paper is achieved. The above results are computed and simulated using MATLAB.

History of wireless technology has witnessed many fabulous ideas. Wireless power transfer (WPT) is one among them. Rectenna is an essential part in WPT circuitry. A step by step approach is followed to develop 4×4 rectangular and 2×2 circular microstrip patch antennas for Rectenna.

The paper proposes a novel method to analyze the correctness of frequency correction loop in a 2G system, so that the mobile station accurately synchronizes to the base station. The setup contains an automatic frequency control (AFC) module to track and control the frequency/timing offset of the crystal. The main functionality of the AFC module is to estimate the optimum frequency correction value and minimize the frequency error of the system. It also contains a long term learning (LTL) module whose functionality is to derive an estimate for the crystal behavior due to temperature and aging and maintain a learning database containing the frequency correction values for the crystal in the operating temperature range. A separate module is used to correct advance/forward time drift on slave SIM, when oscillator is locked to the Master SIM. Various COST 207 GSM/EDGE channel models for mobile radio communication are implemented to test the frequency correction loop.
