Methods and system for dynamic spectrum arbitrage with mobility management
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A dynamic spectrum arbitrage (DSA) method, comprising:
- receiving, via a processor of server computing device that is configured to perform DSA operations to dynamically allocate telecommunication resources of one telecommunication network for access and use by another telecommunication network, a notification message that identifies a successful bidder for a geographical area;
generating, via the processor, a grid-map structure that includes a primary grid structure that identifies telecommunication cells in the geographical area;
monitoring, via the processor, locations of wireless devices; and
determining, via the processor, whether to initiate inter-network handover operations based on the locations of the wireless devices with respect to the telecommunication cells of the primary grid structure.

Abstract
A dynamic spectrum arbitrage (DSA) system includes a dynamic spectrum policy controller (DPC) and a dynamic spectrum controller (DSC) that together dynamically manage the allocation and use of resources (e.g., spectrum resources) across different networks. The DSC component may include wired or wireless connections to eNodeBs, a mobility management entity (MME), and various other network components. These components may be configured to communicate and perform various mobility management operations to better manage and coordinate the handling (e.g., handoffs, hand-ins, backoff, etc.) of wireless devices as they are moved with respect to the allocated resources.
