1. A method of configuring a fixed-location radio device with location information, the method comprising:
during a configuration mode, receiving location data representing a location of an electronic device separate from the fixed-location radio device, the electronic device having location determining capability and located in close proximity to the fixed-location radio device when the location data is determined by the electronic device, and the location of the electronic device functioning as a proxy for the location of the fixed-location radio device; during the configuration mode, populating a location configuration field stored by the fixed-location radio device with a location value matching the location represented by the location data, the populated location value representing the geographic location of the fixed-location radio device, wherein the location data is determined by the electronic device and received by the fixed-location radio device within a predetermined amount of time as part of a validity check to ensure that the location of the electronic device is determined in close proximity to the actual geo-location of the fixed-location radio device; and during an active state, requesting spectrum access from a spectrum management server to spectrum that is available for use by the fixed-location radio device to carry out wireless communications at the geographic location represented by the location value. |
