Abstract

A method of optimizing spectrum usage in real-time for a plurality of networks is provided. The method includes: retrieving local spectrum usage data in a geographical area in which spectrum allocation is to take place; modeling the plurality of networks, using one or more quantum statistical models, as a system of interacting particles, wherein each particle represents a node in a network and is configurable to exist in one of several quantum states; selecting bandwidth allocation and utilization constraints for the nodes based on a system allocation intent; solving an optimization problem related to the system allocation intent to estimate specific frequency and bandwidth distributions to be allocated to each node by applying the selected one or more quantum statistical models, the selected bandwidth allocation and utilization constraints, and the captured local spectrum data; and instructing each node to operate within the specific bandwidth allocated to the node.
