The method of the invention is related to utilizing the convergence patterns of sparse coding for detecting a primary user emulation/signal jamming attack in a cognitive radio setting. The method basically comprises a training stage and a testing stage. Through the method, the hypothesis which shows that there is no primary user but only noise (H.sub.0), the hypothesis which shows that there is a legitimate primary user present with a right to use the spectrum and the secondary user should not use the spectrum (H.sub.1), and the hypothesis which shows that there is a primary user emulator/signal jammer in the environment (H.sub.2) can be distinguished.

A system includes a first node, a second node, and a third node, wherein the first node establishes a wireless communication link with the second node to perform wireless communication, and forwards connection information of the wireless communication to the third node; and the third node receives, by listening on the wireless communication link based on the connection information, transmission data sent by the second node to the first node. If an error occurs when the third node receives the transmission data sent by the second node to the first node, the third node interferes with the first node's reception of the transmission data sent by the second node, so that an error is caused when the first node receives the transmission data sent by the second node, and the second node is triggered to perform retransmission.

According to one embodiment of the present invention, in a concealed jamming attack using a false acknowledgement frame, a jamming attack is performed at a point in time during which a data frame is transmitted between a transmission node and a reception node and a false acknowledgement frame is transmitted to the data frame transmission node, such that the data frame transmission node cannot detect a data transmission failure in a MAC layer because of the jamming attack, and thus a jamming attack can be concealed.
