In this paper, we compare the performances of cooperative and distributed spectrum sensing in wireless sensor networks. After introducing the basic problem, we describe two strategies: 1) a cooperative sensing strategy, which takes advantage of cooperation diversity gain to increase probability of detection and 2) a distributed sensing strategy, which by passing the results in an inter-node manner increases energy efficiency and fairness among nodes. Then, we compare the performances of the strategies in terms of three criteria: agility, energy efficiency, and robustness against SNR changes, and summarize the comparison. It shows that: 1) the non-cooperative strategy has the best fairness of energy consumption, 2) the cooperative strategy leads to the best agility, and 3) the distributed strategy leads to the lowest energy consumption and the best robustness against SNR changes.
