Abstract

Systems and methods for managing spectrum handoff in a plurality of radio networks are disclosed. These may include gathering a plurality of data about each of the first and second locations; determining a load level associated with each of the first and second set of radio networks; determining a bandwidth allocation value; and reserving a plurality of channel slices from the first channel set among the first of radio networks.

First claim

What is claimed:

1. A management system for spectrum handoff in a plurality of radio networks, the plurality of radio networks configured to operate over a shared spectrum, the management system comprising:
a processor;
a neighbor detection engine communicatively coupled to the processor, the neighbor detection engine configured to:
gather a first plurality of data associated with a first location; and
gather a second plurality of data associated with a second location;
