A system and method for the operation of a Spectrum Manager (SM) within a cognitive radio system includes two primary states of operation: SM at network initialization and SM at network operation. While in the network Initialization state, the SM's primary responsibility is to find an operating channel. After an operating channel is found, the SM moves from the network initialization state to the network operation state while executing a procedure to establish a network. While in the network operation state, the SM can execute other procedures, a procedure to update list of available channel from the incumbent database of channel and frequency data, a procedure to determine a signal type, a procedure to enter co-existence mode, deciding when to move to a backup channel and issuing calls for the same as well as background procedures such as looking for better backup channels when the SM is otherwise idle. |
