Location-based method to specify ratio frequency spectrum rights

A system for dynamically managing available spectrum across a plurality of bands for concurrent reuse in a radio frequency (RF) environment, comprising:

• computer readable code for defining a transmitter right for a transmitter in a first RF system in a predetermined band by establishing spatial, spectral, and temporal restrictions on a second RF system in the predetermined band, the transmitter right responsive to a geographical location of the transmitter, a maximum power density, a spectrum mask, and a power map;
• computer readable code for defining a receiver right for a receiver in the first RF system in the predetermined band by establishing spatial, spectral, and temporal restrictions on the second RF system in the predetermined band responsive to a location of the receiver, a maximum power density, an underlay map, and a propagation map;
• computer readable code for determining responsive to the transmitter right and the receiver right in the first RF system, a first interference caused by the first RF system and affecting the second RF system in the predetermined band during a time period in a geographical region and a second interference caused by the second RF system and affecting the first RF system in the predetermined band during the time period in the geographical region;
• computer readable code for determining by the second RF system a concurrent reuse of available spectrum in the predetermined band during the time period in the geographical region not being used by the first RF system responsive to the first and second interference;
• computer readable code for transmitting by the second RF system a request for concurrent reuse of available spectrum in the predetermined band during the time period in the geographical region to a spectrum manager;
• and
• at least one processor configured to process the computer readable code.

A computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer-readable medium having control logic stored therein for causing a processor to dynamically manage available spectrum across a plurality of bands for concurrent reuse in a radio frequency (RF) environment, said control logic comprising:

• first computer readable program code for causing the processor to define a transmitter right for a transmitter in a first RF system in a predetermined band by establishing spatial, spectral, and temporal restrictions on a second RF system in the predetermined band, the transmitter right responsive to a geographical location of the transmitter, a maximum power density, a spectrum mask, and a power map;
• second computer readable program code for causing the processor to define a receiver right for a receiver in of the first RF system in the predetermined band by establishing spatial, spectral, and temporal restrictions on the second RF system in the predetermined band responsive to a location of the receiver, a maximum power density, an underlay mask, and a propagation map;
• third computer readable program code for causing the processor to determine responsive to the transmitter right and the receiver right in the first RF system, a first interference caused by the first RF system and affecting the second RF system in the predetermined band during a time period in a geographical region and a second interference caused by the second RF system and affecting the first RF system in the predetermined band during the time period in the geographical region;
• fourth computer readable program code for causing the processor to determine by the second RF system a concurrent reuse of available spectrum in the predetermined band during the time period in the geographical region not being used by the first RF system responsive to the first and second interference;
• and
• fifth computer readable program code for causing the processor to transmit by the second RF system a request for concurrent reuse of available spectrum in the predetermined band during the time period in the geographical region to a spectrum manager.
