© 2019 IEEE. Full duplex (FD) wireless technology, which enables simultaneous transmission and reception on the same frequency, has shown its great potential for doubling the spectral efficiency as well as spectrum sensing while transmitting in cognitive radio networks (CRNs). However, the self interference (SI) suppression, the underlying technique of FD, is often imperfect, resulting in non-negligible residual SI that severely affects the test statistics of sensing methods. The residual SI thereby significantly deteriorates the spectrum sensing accuracy. In this work, we aim to address this issue by proposing a novel sensing approach in FD systems leveraging the Pilot-Tone (PT) structure of Orthogonal Frequency Division Modulation (OFDM) signals. In comparison with the conventional sensing methods in FD systems, the developed sensing approach holds the advantage in the robustness not only to residual SI but also the carrier frequency offset (CFO). Besides, the proposed sensing method is able to accomplish sensing tasks in low SNR conditions with much lower computational complexity. Numerical simulations results demonstrate that the probability of detection of our proposed approach can be improved up to 34.9%, compared with state- of-the-art sensing methods in FD systems, suffering from residual SI and CFO.
