The fact that the spectrum resource is underutilised in certain bands has motivated the dynamic spectrum access (DSA) approach, which enables unlicensed secondary users (SUs) equipped with cognitive radio (CR) devices to access the spectrum without causing significant interference to primary users (PUs). Nowadays, the increasing bandwidth for wireless communication in millimetre-wave and Terahertz frequency bands puts higher requirements on the performance of spectrum sensing technique, the primary enabler of DSA. Traditional Nyquist-rate sampling and processing tend to be impractical due to high power consumption, high-cost, and hardware complexity of high-speed analogue to digital converters (ADCs). To overcome the sampling rate bottleneck, several sub-Nyquist sampling methods [1–9], recovery algorithms [10–18] and channel detection methods [19–23] have been proposed. Moreover, the recent advancements in machine-learning-based spectrum sensing have been characterised, which has provided further intelligence to CR devices with better adaptivity and higher flexibility under complex radio environments [24–30]. Still, the performance demands placed on sub-Nyquist spectrum sensing creates many different challenges, which comprise, but are not limited to, the following:• For compressive samplers, the necessary sampling rate to successfully reconstruct a sparse signal is determined by the actual sparsity order (the ratio of the occupied channel to the total sensing bandwidth) of the signal. On the other hand, spectrum reconstruction based on a greedy algorithm requires prior knowledge of spectrum sparsity as an input. However, due to the uncertainty in the environ-
