System and method for requesting allocation of radio frequency spectrum and transmission operational parameters for an incident location

A system comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory coupled to the processor, the memory containing thereon a set of instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to:
• receive, at a dispatch center, an indication of an incident requiring a response, the incident having an incident location;
• identify a first responding unit to respond to the incident;
• determine broadband transmission capabilities of the first responding unit;
• request a first allocation of Radio Frequency (RF) spectrum and transmission operational parameters covering at least a first portion of an area of the incident location based on the broadband transmission capabilities of the first responding unit;
• and
• send to the first responding unit an indication of the first allocation of RF spectrum, the transmission operational parameters, and the at least the first portion of the area of the incident location.

A non-transitory processor readable medium containing a set of instructions thereon that when executed by a processor cause the processor to:

• receive, at a dispatch center, an indication of an incident requiring a response, the incident having an incident location;
• identify a first responding unit to respond to the incident;
• determine broadband transmission capabilities of the first responding unit;
• request a first allocation of Radio Frequency (RF) spectrum and transmission operational parameters covering at least a first portion of an area of the incident location based on the broadband transmission capabilities of the first responding unit;
• and
• send to the first responding unit an indication of the first allocation of RF spectrum, the transmission operational parameters, and the at least the first portion of the area of the incident location.
