USE OF LICENSED SHARED SPECTRUM IN A RADIO ACCESS NETWORK WHERE SIGNAL PROPAGATION IS UNKNOWN

摘要

For controlling a wireless transmission of a network element of a radio access network where signal propagation is unknown, wherein the network element is configured to inhibit use of a licensed shared access spectrum, interference levels in predefined reservation zones are determined, which are introduced by the network element when using the licensed shared access spectrum. It is checked whether or not the interference levels violate agreed interference levels in the predefined reservation zones of the licensed shared access spectrum, and the network element is configured to allow use of the licensed shared access spectrum in case the interference levels do not violate the agreed interference levels in the predefined reservation zones.
