576 results about "Spectrum sharing" patented technology

Spectrum sharing is a way to optimize the use of the airwaves, or wireless communications channels, by enabling multiple categories of users to safely share the same frequency bands. Spectrum sharing is necessary because growing demand is crowding the airwaves.

Method and system for sharing spectrum in a wireless communications network

A method and system for sharing spectrum in a wireless communications network are disclosed. As one example, a method for sharing spectrum is disclosed, which includes the steps of determining if two base stations in the wireless communications network are to share a frequency spectrum, and if two base stations in the wireless communications network are to share a frequency spectrum, determining if the two base stations in the wireless communications network have non-overlapping wireless communications coverage. Also, if the two base stations in the wireless communications network have non-overlapping wireless communications coverage, determining if a first mobile communications unit associated with a first base station of the two base stations has wireless communications coverage that overlaps with wireless communications coverage of a second mobile communications unit associated with a second base station of the two base stations, and if the first mobile communications unit has wireless communications coverage that overlaps with wireless communications coverage of the second mobile communications unit, enabling the two base stations to use a synchronized parallel operation spectrum sharing mode for communications. Also, a Contention-for-being-Master approach is disclosed as one primary method for sharing spectrum, which can be treated separately from all other contention methods, or combined with the exemplary contention method disclosed herein.

Communication systems

A wireless communication system is comprised of multiple radio access networks—RANs—which at least partly share the same frequency spectrum. Each RAN is provided with a gateway—GW—(GW1, GW2, GW3) for managing the network. Spectrum sharing in the system is achieved through a hierarchy of processes including long-term—LT—spectrum assignment, short-term—ST—spectrum assignment, and dynamic channel allocation, the latter process assigning sub-channels to base stations (BS1, . . . BS5; BS6, . . . BS10; BS11, . . . BS16) in each RAN. However, so-called “red” sub-channels (subject to interference) are liable to arise.
