Abstract:
Systems and methods are described generally related to the creation of a spectrum allocator (SA) function that can be used to dynamically assign/reassign the frequency of operation of a node operating in a wireless communication network. To permit LTE operation in license exempt (LE) bands, the radio resource management (RRM) system is enhanced to include an interface, which allows it to communicate with modules external to the RRM, such as a coexistence manager, policy engine and sensing toolbox.
