Description

Abstract: Continuous spectrum measurement is expensive and time consuming. This has necessitated the concept of spectrum prediction. Spectrum prediction uses historically observed data from spectrum sensing to forecast future channel states. In this research the suitability of the genetic algorithm modified Holt-Winters exponential model in the prediction of spectrum occupancy data was investigated. Minute spectrum duty cycle of selected locations in Ilorin, Nigeria was used in the evaluation of the forecast behaviour of the methods. It was observed that GA-Holt-Winter technique gave lower forecast values as evaluated from the “Mean Square Error (MSE)” serving “as objective function” in comparison with Holt-Winters method. The Holt-Winters method and GA-Holt-Winters technique were observed to be of good forecast behaviour with GSM 900 RL for both location. There was about 16% decrease in the MSE of GA-Holt-Winters technique compared to Holt-Winters in the GSM 900 RL for both locations. Finally, there was about 28% and 8% decrease in the MSE of GA-Holt-Winters technique compared to Holt-Winters in the GSM 900 RL for locations 1 and 2 respectively.

Keywords: Cognitive radio network, genetic algorithm, Holts-Winters exponential smoothing, spectrum occupancy, spectrum measurement, spectrum prediction.
