The spectrum assignments () comprise an access spectrum assignment () and a failover spectrum assignment () for replacing at least part of the access spectrum assignment () responsive to a conflict between the radio access node () and an incumbent user () with respect to the access spectrum assignment (). The radio access node () is notified of the spectrum assignments (), and in response, the radio access node () commences radio communications according to the access spectrum assignment (). In response to receiving notification to discontinue use of the at least part of the access spectrum assignment (), the radio access node () replaces the at least part of the access spectrum assignment () with at least part of the failover spectrum assignment ().
