Cognitive Radio technology addresses the spectrum shortage problem by enabling unlicensed users equipped with CRs to coexist with incumbent users in licensed spectrum bands while causing no interference, and spectrum sensing is one of the essential mechanisms being actively investigated. In a hostile environment, an attacker may modify the air interface of a CR to mimic a primary user signal’s characteristics, leading to Primary User Emulation (PUE) attacks. Our objective is to detect PUE attacks, with detection times proportionate to the distance of secondary users from the malicious primary user.
