Resumen (en)

This paper presents the results of the characterization of the attack known as the "primary user emulation" in mobile cognitive radio networks performing the implementation and testing. The tools and their configuration to carry out the attack are presented and their effects on the network are analyzed. The results show how to generate the attack with a software-defined radio equipment (SDR) using GNU-Radio and OpenBTS. The effects of the possible configurations of the attack on the network are shown, the malicious type generates constant interference on the primary or cognitive network, the selfish type allows to imitate a licensed or primary user generating interference to the primary network and inability to access the Cognitive Network while active. If the emulator's power level is fixed, the services it provides are stable. If the power is variable the services suffer intermittency. Primary user emulation is the attack that most affects the cognitive radio network so its effects are analyzed in order to propose ways of detecting or applying countermeasures.

Resumen (es)

En este artículo se presentan los resultados de la caracterización del ataque conocido como la “emulación de usuario primario” en redes móviles de radio cognitiva realizando la implementación y pruebas. Se presentan las herramientas y su configuración para efectuar el ataque y se analizan sus efectos sobre la red. Los resultados muestran cómo generar el ataque con un equipo de radio definido por software (SDR) utilizando GNU-Radio y OpenBTS. Se muestran los efectos de las posibles configuraciones del ataque sobre la red, el tipo malicioso genera interferencia constante sobre la red primaria o cognitiva, el tipo egoísta permite imitar un usuario licenciado o primario generando interferencia a la red primaria e imposibilidad de acceso a la red cognitiva mientras este activo. Si el nivel de potencia del emulador es fijo los servicios que presta son estables. Si la potencia es variable los servicios sufren intermitencia. La emulación de usuario primario es el ataque que más afecta la red de radio cognitiva por lo que se analizan sus efectos para poder plantear formas de detección o aplicar contramedidas.
