Systems, methods, and devices for electronic spectrum management for identifying open space

摘要

Systems, methods, and apparatus are provided for automated identification of open space in a wireless communications spectrum, by identifying sources of signal emission in the spectrum by automatically detecting signals, analyzing signals, comparing signal data to historical and reference data, creating corresponding signal profiles, and determining information about the open space based upon the measured and analyzed data in near real time.

主权项

1. A system for identifying open space in a wireless communications spectrum comprising:
at least one apparatus, wherein the at least one apparatus is operable for network-based communication with at least one server computer including a database, and/or with at least one other apparatus, but does not require a connection to the at least one server computer to be operable for identifying signal emitting devices; wherein each of the apparatus is operable for identifying open space in a spectrum associated with wireless communications including:
a housing, at least one processor and memory, and sensors constructed and configured for sensing and measuring wireless communications signals from signal emitting devices in the spectrum associated with wireless communications; and wherein the apparatus is operable to automatically analyze the sensed and measured data to identify the open space in near real time, and for automatically calculating in near real time a percent activity associated with the identified open space on predetermined frequencies and/or ISM bands.
