Abstract
A method and system for implementing dynamic spectrum access (DSA) in heterogeneous hierarchical mobile ad-hoc networks (MANET) as a cloud service, independent of the network connectivity where DSA decisions can be made at any time regardless of the reachability state, includes hierarchical decision making processes and rules implementable at the node level, gateway level, or arbitrator level. The method and system have different precedence levels for making DSA decisions based on connectivity status. The system propagates spectrum sensing information upward, and propagates rule sets, policies and configuration parameters downward in order to create autonomous DSA decisions.
