Spectrum lease exchange and management systems and methods

A method of allocating spectrum within a radio frequency system, the method comprising:

• receiving, by a spectrum optimization server from a lease management server, information associated with a request for leasing radio frequency spectrum to a first lessee, the request including a first indicator of desired quality;
• identifying, by the spectrum optimization server, a first allocation of spectrum for the first lessee based on the first indicator of desired quality and a predicted quality of the first allocation of spectrum;
• transmitting, by the spectrum optimization server, an indication that the first lessee is granted access to the first allocation of spectrum;
• receiving, by the spectrum optimization server from a first spectrum sensing device, information associated with at least one measured quality characteristic of the first allocation of spectrum;
• transmitting, by the spectrum optimization server to the lease management server, an indication of measured quality of the first allocation of spectrum;
• identifying, by the lease management server, a first commodity value associated with the first allocation of spectrum based on the at least one measured quality characteristic of the first allocation of spectrum;
• comparing, by the lease management server, the measured quality of the first allocation of spectrum to the predicted quality of the first allocation of spectrum;
• and
• creating, by the lease management server, a first commodity value credit for the first lessee if the measured quality of the first allocation of spectrum is less than the predicted quality of the first allocation of spectrum.
