Dynamic Spectrum Access with

IEEE 1900.5.2 Spectrum Consumption Models

Prasad Netalkar (pnetalka@winlab.rutgers.edu)

Motivation

  • The future of wireless services and applications will increasingly rely on Dynamic Spectrum Access (DSA) methods to manage spectrum resources in a rapid and efficient manner
  • We propose a novel spectrum management architecture, algorithm design, and experimentation framework that utilizes IEEE 1900.5.2 Spectrum Consumption Models (SCMs)

Spectrum Consumption Models

  • Information model that allows RF devices to indicate their spectrum usage and interference protection needs
  • Support methods to compute compatibility (i.e., non-interference) between any two models without dependence on external databases of environmental or system data
  • Constructs: Reference power, spectrum mask, underlay mask, power map, propagation map, etc.

Spectrum Architecture

Spectrum Deconfliction Algorithm

  • Algorithm leverages CIL (developed by DARPA) and SCM in the control plane to coordinate and exchange spectrum information
  • Performs dynamic frequency and power adjustments of Tx/Rx devices
  • Ensures aggregate compatibility with all devices in the system

ORBIT/COSMOS Experimentation Framework

usage

Baseline: Performs only frequency adjustment

  • No PMT case represents max potential gain that can be achieved with the SD algorithm having an ideal power setting
  • Baseline uses a large number of channels at full power
