Compressive sensing for dynamic spectrum access networks: Techniques and   tradeoffs
  We explore the practical costs and benefits of CS for dynamic spectrum access (DSA) networks. Firstly, we review several fast and practical techniques for energy detection without full reconstruction and provide theoretical guarantees. We also define practical metrics to measure the performance of these techniques. Secondly, we perform comprehensive experiments comparing the techniques on real signals captured over the air. Our results show that we can significantly compressively acquire the signal while still accurately determining spectral occupancy.
