Abstract:
Techniques for modelling a radio network in a geographic region utilizing shared spectra are disclosed. Population data is obtained for the geographic region. A number of radios per channel in the geographic region, N′, is determined. Candidate geographic location for radios in the geographic region are determined. For every channel in the shared spectra, at least one of a static dataset and a dynamic dataset is determined. At least one set of output data, that is a statistical characterization of the radio network, is generated using at least one of the static dataset and the dynamic dataset, to aid in design of the radio network.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method is provided. The method comprises determining a free space path loss distance at a frequency of a transmitter; determining a morphology class for a geographic location of the transmitter; determining a scaling factor P corresponding to the determined morphology class; determining a circular analysis region based upon the scaling factor P; and generating a contour.

In one embodiment, a method is provided. The method comprises defining propagation analysis points for radial line Rp; obtaining, from an external database, terrain elevation data for the radial line Rp up to a maximum radial distance; determining the contour point for the radial line Rp; and upon determining the contour points for M radii, generating a protection zone perimeter.
Abstract:
A method of associating streams of baseband data with one or more antenna ports of a remote radio head (RRH) is provided. The method includes extracting streams of baseband data from a user-plane of front-haul data communicated to the RRH over a communication link, determining which, if any, layer mapping and precoding scheme and associated antenna port configuration was used to encode and modulate one or more of the extracted streams of baseband data, wherein each layer mapping and precoding scheme has one or more of associated antenna port configurations, each antenna port configuration associating each of one or more steams of baseband data with a respective antenna port of the RRH.
Abstract:
Techniques are provided for determining a channel at and/or a maximum transmit power level in which the requesting General Authorized Access (GAA) citizens broadband radio service device (CBSD) can transmit prior to the next to be executed coordinated periodic activities among spectrum access systems while diminishing co-channel interference between the requesting GAA CBSD and other GAA CBSD(s) in a neighborhood centered around the requesting GAA CBSD.
Abstract:
Techniques for determining power levels of radios, including a time domain duplexing (TDD) system, in shared frequency spectrum is provided. A TDD radio, of the TDD system, in a neighborhood having a largest interference contribution in the frequency spectrum at the point. Transmit power levels are determined for (a) the selected TDD radio, (b) other radios in the neighborhood that are not part of the TDD system, and (c) at least one radio in the TDD system that is not the TDD radio having the largest interference contribution in the frequency spectrum. Thus, interference margin may be fairly allocated to radios in neighborhood(s) about protection points.
Abstract:
Techniques for planning locations of receiver systems for an environmental sensing capabilities (ESC) system are provided. An ESC system is used to detect activity of primary users in shared spectra. The techniques can be used to reduce dead zone area(s), created by the receiver systems, for radios of secondary systems using the shared frequency spectrum.
Abstract:
Techniques for determining a move list identifying radios—of a shared access system including at least one time division duplexing system—are provided. The radios transmissions in spectrum shared with an incumbent receiver cease upon the incumbent receiver entering a protection region.

Abstract:
The present disclosure describes systems and methods for identifying a signal that is a product of two or more other signals. In an embodiment, intermodulation distortion is determined by searching a frequency band for an RF product signal and identifying the RF product signal as an intermodulation distortion signal using a cyclostationarity detection technique.
