Abstract

The present invention relates to wireless networks and more specifically to a method and apparatus for integrating spectrum data from a plurality of autonomous radio agents with a cloud-based data fusion and computing element that enables network self-organization and adaptive control of dynamic frequency selection in 802.11 ac/n and LTE-U networks. In one embodiment, the present invention provides a cloud intelligence engine communicatively coupled to a plurality of multi-channel DFS masters that is configured to receive spectral information from the plurality of multi-channel DFS masters, integrate the spectral information with other spectral information to generate integrated spectral information, and determine communication channels for the plurality of multi-channel DFS masters based at least on the integrated spectral information.
