Abstract
A method and system is provided for coordinating radio resources in shared or unlicensed frequency bands. Specifically, a set of operating parameters and a receiver-transmitter feedback mechanism are provided that govern the coordination of radio spectrum usage by a plurality of wireless devices. This is achieved by rewarding good receivers and transmitter behavior and/or restricting radio spectrum occupation time. The set of operating parameters include the transmission power, spectrum access probability, spectrum occupation time, and a Receiver Success Rate (RSR).
Claims16
A method for coordinating radio resource usage by a plurality of wireless devices in an unlicensed frequency band, the method comprising:
- providing a set of operating parameters, the operating parameters comprising at least one out of a transmission power (P), a spectrum occupation time (T), a spectrum access probability (R) for restricting the access of the spectrum by the plurality of radio frequency devices;
- and
- providing a receiver transmitter feedback mechanism for governing the operating parameters.
A system for coordinating radio resource usage by a plurality of wireless devices in an unlicensed frequency band, the system comprising
- a transmitter for transmitting information;
- a receiver for receiving the transmitted information and providing a receiver transmitter feedback;
- and
- an adjustor for adjusting a set of operating parameters for the information to be transmitted based on the receiver transmitter feedback, the set of operating parameters comprising at least one out of a transmission power (P), a spectrum occupation time (T), a spectrum access probability (R) for restricting the access of the spectrum by the plurality of radio frequency devices.
