Abstract
There is provided a method, including obtaining, by a network apparatus, antenna sensing information with respect to signals received by a base station operating under a shared access-system which allows a licensee system to apply at least a part of an shared access spectrum which is currently unused by an incumbent system; detecting, on the basis of the antenna sensing information, that at least one device of the incumbent system is communicating on the shared access spectrum in the coverage area of the base station; identifying the angular sector in which the device of the incumbent system is located with respect to the base station; and dynamically isolating the identified angular sector from usage by the licensee system.
