Abstract: This paper is a review study on the different techniques that are used and utilized in the detection of Spectrum Sensing, based on the type of the protocol followed in each technique. And the main objective of that is to emphasis the concept and the comprehension of the spectrum sensing detection as well as the exploration of the strengths and weaknesses of each and the problem related to the study. Many related paper and researches are chosen and classified in categories depending on the narrow band detection technique, the results are of the comparison are listed in tables and discussed. Finally the overall outcome is summarized and stated.
