A Monitoring Network for Spectrum Governance
Roel Schiphorst, Cornelis H. Slump · Frequenz · 2010
Dynamic Spectrum Access (DSA) is an exciting new technology, which has introduced a paradigm shift in spectrum access. As a result it also changes the role of the regulator. On one hand the scarce radio spectrum should be used in an optimal way, so that society is best served. On the other hand interference between users and between networks should be avoided. For that reason rules have to be defined for spectrum use. This topic is called spectrum governance. For evaluation and to check whether devices obey the rules, a monitoring system is needed. In this paper, we propose to use a fleet of mobile monitoring vehicles for this purpose.
