Abstract

The aim of this manuscript is to propose a secure handoff scheme for cognitive radio network by ensuring a secure communication among cognitive users (CU). A coordinator cognitive user(CCU) is selected based on users trust values/factor (TV/TF) by periodically computing and updating these values of each CU depending upon their characteristics. The CCU is the controlling unit to allow the unused band/channel during spectrum mobility/handoff by the CU as well as upon entry of new CU in the cognitive radio network (CRN). The proposed mechanism is validated by simulating in the Matlab environment against network throughput and to know the status of the handoff CU either it is trusted or untrusted.
