Spectrum Monitoring and management
Nabil Ali Sharaf Murshed · IOSR Journal of Engineering · 2014
Spectrum Monitoring is, besides Spectrum Planning and Licensing, one of the key elements in spectrum management process.Monitoring is not only solving interference problems but also tasked with for instance: Checking license parameters, e.g.field strength and band width (remote inspection) Comparing predicted and measured values Identifying illegal use Supporting preparation for WRC Quick overview of the spectrum Reframing Detecting White Spaces, etcFrequency Planning and Licensing provide the theoretical (calculated) occupancy.Monitoring provides the real (automatically or manual measured) occupancy.The smaller the difference between theoretical and real occupancy, the better the quality of the overall spectrum management process.
