Abstract
A first spectrum access system (SAS) instance receives a message (such as a heartbeat message) including an identifier of a first base station that is not registered with the first SAS instance. The first SAS instance accesses a database that is shared with a second SAS instance and periodically synchronized with the second SAS instance. The first SAS instance provides an SAS service that was previously established between the first base station and the second SAS instance in response to the database including a record generated by the second SAS instance for the first base station. The first base station registers to provide connectivity in a shared spectrum using the SAS service provided by the second SAS instance. The first base station transmits the message to the first SAS instance including an identifier of the first base station in response to the second SAS instance becoming unavailable.
