Bring your own spectrum (BYOS) : a tiered architecture supporting flexible spectrum allocation
Madhulika Tripathi, Braden Phillips, Matthew Sorell
In this paper we present an innovative framework suitable for the next generation of wireless spectrum allocation. We call our framework - Bring Your Own Spectrum (BYOS) - to highlight the Spectrum as a Service (SaaS) nature of the architecture that allows all participants to be potential spectrum owners. The BYOS framework has a tiered and flexible architecture that is technology-neutral and allows multiple trading and sharing formats among a varied array of buyers and sellers. To develop the BYOS framework, we tackled the spectrum allocation problem using a top down approach. We make use of a quasi-static model of spectrum allocation in which allocation is specific to the type of operators, to build a tiered architecture. The framework also introduces two other novel concepts - a usagebased trading unit that is common across both long and shorter terms and the token-bucket system (used in network traffic management) for managing competition. The process is automated by making use of smart contract over a public ledger based system.
