To determine precise geographical location of a fixed-location radio device, the fixed-location radio device may enter a configuration mode and receive location data from a separate electronic device that is within close proximity to the fixed-location radio device. The location of the electronic device is used as a proxy for the location of the fixed-location radio device.

System and method for determining precise geo-location of a fixed-location radio device

A coexistence data provider in a system for allocating spectrum to spectrum user devices includes an interface configured to receive inputs of available spectrum information, and to receive a plurality of device coexistence data reports that pertain to spectrum usage of the spectrum user devices. A controller is configured to execute a coexistence data application that is stored in a memory and, by execution of the coexistence data application, the coexistence data provider is configured to combine the available spectrum information and the device coexistence data reports to generate a network coexistence report that is indicative of spectrum usage within the one or more networks. Based on the network coexistence report, the coexistence data provider offers spectrum that provides enhanced user device performance. Spectrum user devices also can receive and analyze the network coexistence report, and retune to spectrum that provides enhanced user device performance.

Systems and methods for processing spectrum coexistence information to optimize spectrum allocation

Systems and methods of efficiently providing network access for a portable electronic device while moderating power consumption are described. The electronic device may have a cellular radio and a network radio for communicating with an alternative network. In a default state, the electronic device may carry out communications using the cellular radio, and the network radio may be in an off state. Periodically, the electronic device may determine if the electronic device has moved. If so, a location of the electronic device may be determined and a check may be carried out to determine if the electronic device is in range of an available alternative network. If the electronic device is in range of an available alternative network, the network radio may be turned on and an attempt to connect to the alternative network may be made.

System and method for managing wireless connections and radio resources

Disclosed are techniques for managing situations where spectrum use by one party is preempted by spectrum needs of another party. A revocation may be sent from a spectrum management system to secondary radio systems that are impacted by the presence of priority radio system. Remedial action may be taken if an acknowledgement of the revocation message is not received from a secondary radio system. Also, the secondary radio systems may transmit keep-alive messages to monitor operation of the communication pathway for the revocation messages.

System and method for managing spectrum allocation

A communication system where radios without a normally available communication pathway to a spectrum management system (referred to as spoke radio devices) communicate with the spectrum management system by joining a network established by a hub radio device that has a prior registration with the spectrum management system. Once joined, the spoke may seek registration with the spectrum management system and, if appropriate, obtain a spectrum allocation from the spectrum management system. Also, once registered, spoke radio devices may form a network of their own.

System and method for managing radio access to spectrum and to a spectrum management system

Systems and methods of providing network access information from one or more servers to a wireless device. The wireless device acquires information from the servers about available networks at a current location of the wireless device. The network information is based on a plurality of device parameters, network parameters and regulatory requirements that govern the operation of the wireless device. In addition, the wireless device may assess the acquired information for suitability for communications to be carried out by the wireless device.
