System and method for automated optimization of spectrum allocation

摘要

The present disclosure describes systems and methods that facilitate the allocation of spectrum for wireless communications. A database may be maintained that includes spectrum that has been offered by spectrum holders for use by spectrum users. Portions of the offered spectrum that have been allocated to spectrum users may be identified, the remainder of the offered spectrum being unallocated spectrum. A request specifying aspects of desired spectrum may be received from a user. A lack of available spectrum from the offered spectrum that fulfills the specified aspects in the request may be identified. Unallocated spectrum from a corresponding spectrum offer may be apportioned to fulfill the request with unallocated spectrum that matches the time duration and the geographic area aspects of the request and that has a frequency range that is shifted from the frequency range of the request for at least a portion of the time duration.
