ECE Graduate Seminar
<p> </p> <p> </p> <p> Up-dated seminar announcement:</p> <p> You are cordially invited to attend the following seminar:</p> <p> </p> <p> Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering</p> <p> Old Dominion University</p> <p> GRADUATE SEMINAR</p> <p> </p> <p> Security Threat and Defenses for</p> <p> Cognitive Radio Networks</p> <p> </p> <p> by</p> <p> Dr. ChunSheng Xin</p> <p> Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering</p> <p> Old Dominion University</p> <p> </p> <p> Friday, October 18, 2013</p> <p> 3:00 p.m. KH 224</p> <p> Host: Dr. González</p> <p> </p> <p> Cognitive radio networks have attracted great attention from both funding agencies and the research community in the past decade, due to its potential to significantly increase spectrum utilization. In this talk, I will first discuss the background for research in cognitive radio networks, including the spectrum scarcity problem, the urges from the highest level, and the responses of funding agencies that includes two waves of funding activities for research in this area. Next I will discuss the security threats to cognitive radio networks, including jamming, spectrum sensing data falsification, and primary user emulation. I will also introduce the corresponding defense techniques. Next, I will discuss our work to countermeasure the security threats to cognitive radio networks, with more focus on the spectrum sensing data falsification and anti-jamming.</p> <p> </p> <p> Bio:</p> <p> ChunSheng Xin received the Ph.D. degree in Computer Science and Engineering from SUNY Buffalo in 2002.
