5G演进与6G愿景推动无线设备指数级增长,加剧频谱短缺问题。动态频谱分配(DSA)依赖感知与共享,成为关键解决方案。尽管机器学习(ML)有潜力提升感知性能,但集中式ML面临隐私、带宽与监管挑战。分布式方法如联邦学习(FL)提供替代路径。本文解决两大核心问题:一是利用半监督FL结合能量检测,在缺乏标注数据的场景下实现模型训练;二是分析数据投毒攻击对联邦频谱感知(FLSS)的威胁,指出现有基于多数投票的防御存在缺陷。为此,提出受疫苗启发的新防御机制,无需依赖多数可信节点假设。在合成与真实数据集上的大量实验验证:FLSS可在未标注数据上实现近乎完美的准确率,并在显著比例参与者为恶意时保持拜占庭鲁棒性,有效抵御目标与非目标投毒攻击。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Advancements in wireless and mobile technologies, including 5G advanced and the envisioned 6G, are driving exponential growth in wireless devices. However, this rapid expansion exacerbates spectrum scarcity, posing a critical challenge. Dynamic spectrum allocation (DSA)--which relies on sensing and dynamically sharing spectrum--has emerged as an essential solution to address this issue. While machine learning (ML) models hold significant potential for improving spectrum sensing, their adoption in centralized ML-based DSA systems is limited by privacy concerns, bandwidth constraints, and regulatory challenges. To overcome these limitations, distributed ML-based approaches such as Federated Learning (FL) offer promising alternatives. This work addresses two key challenges in FL-based spectrum sensing (FLSS). First, the scarcity of labeled data for training FL models in practical spectrum sensing scenarios is tackled with a semi-supervised FL approach, combined with energy detection, enabling model training on unlabeled datasets. Second, we examine the security vulnerabilities of FLSS, focusing on the impact of data poisoning attacks. Our analysis highlights the shortcomings of existing majority-based defenses in countering such attacks. To address these vulnerabilities, we propose a novel defense mechanism inspired by vaccination, which effectively mitigates data poisoning attacks without relying on majority-based assumptions. Extensive experiments on both synthetic and real-world datasets validate our solutions, demonstrating that FLSS can achieve near-perfect accuracy on unlabeled datasets and maintain Byzantine robustness against both targeted and untargeted data poisoning attacks, even when a significant proportion of participants are malicious.
