Abstract
In response to receiving instructions from a Spectrum Access System (SAS) to modify (e.g., reduce and/or cease) network transmissions in one or more Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) sub-bands following the SAS's detection of incumbent activity, the network's Operation Support System (OSS) predicts or measures received signal strength (RSS) levels based on the SAS's original instructions, estimates RSS levels based on modified versions of the SAS's instructions that prioritize higher-NPV (net present value) CBRS base stations (CBSDs) over lower-NPV CBSDs, selects a modified version whose RSS levels are approximately the same as or less than the RSS levels of the SAS's original instructions, and transmits to the SAS requests for the selected modified version. In this way, the OSS can achieves more-efficient allocation of the CBRS spectrum and therefore more-desirable network communications without interfering with the incumbent's communications.
