With increasing demand of new wireless applications and increasing number of wireless user’s problem of spectrum scarcity arises. Cognitive Radio technology supports dynamic spectrum access to address spectrum scarcity problem. Reliability of cognitive operation entirely depends upon how effectively task of spectrum sensing has been performed. Spectrum sensing is a process of discovering voids in spectrum which can be allocated to cognitive users opportunistically. There exists number of traditional spectrum sensing methods in literature for constant noise floor. Practically, noise spectrum density is uncertain under which performance of spectrum sensing scheme degrades. In this paper a new spectrum sensing adaptive algorithm considering noise uncertainty has been proposed. Simulation results of proposed scheme shows a constant detection probability has been achieved under noise uncertainty.
