A vendor-independent generalized method for modeling spectrum consumption of any type of use of radio frequency spectrum and the attendant computations for arbitrating the compatibility among models are defined in this standard. The methods of modeling are chosen to support the development of tractable algorithms for determining the compatibility between models and for performing various spectrum management tasks that operate on a plurality of models. The modeling methods are exclusively focused on capturing spectrum use but are defined in a schema that can be joined with other schemata related to spectrum management

This standard defines a vendor-independent generalized method for modeling spectrum consumption of any type of use of radio frequency (RF) spectrum and the attendant computations for arbitrating the compatibility among models. The methods of modeling are chosen to support the development of tractable algorithms for determining the compatibility between models and for performing various spectrum management tasks that operate on a plurality of models. The models are used not only to capture consumption but also to specify available spectrum, to give policy on what spectrum may be used, and to request spectrum for use. The modeling methods are exclusively focus...

This standard defines an analytical framework of necessary modeling constructs which can be used to express the boundaries of spectrum consumption by any transmitting or receiving device. The standard documents a machine-readable data exchange schema for the purpose of transferring these spectrum consumption models (SCMs) between automated systems. This standard serves as a loose coupler for the spectrum management enterprise by providing all spectrum communities of interest a common way to express spectrum consumption. Further, the standard enables the creation of algorithms that can rapidly evaluate compatibility among SCMs and quickly perform spectrum man...
