Abstract: An antenna subsystem receives an analog desired signal, noise, and interference via a communication channel. The desired signal includes modulated encoded digital information. A local oscillator (LO) modulation subsystem generates a modulated LO. The LO modulation subsystem generates a modulated LO to maximize the symbol signal-to-noise ratio of the decoded digital information based on a plurality of: the desired signal, the interference and the noise expected in the communication channel, the characteristics of the converter, and the ability of the DSP to remove the Modulated LO from the converted signal. A mixer mixes the received signal and the modulated LO. A converter converts the mixed signal from analog to digital. A digital signal processor (DSP) removes the modulated LO and desired signal modulation, and decodes the desired signal encoded digital information.

Abstract: A method and system for coordinated dynamic access to radio spectrum for wireless networking includes defining a coordinated access band (CAB) from which radio access network (RAN) managers may request spectrum allocations in the form of time bound spectrum leases for their respective requesting base stations. In one embodiment of the present invention, a DIMSUMnet architecture is implemented to make some fundamental choices and to centralize the collection of information, such as spectral occupancy, thermal and adjacent frequency interference. Such collected information is subsequently used by a spectrum broker in making spectrum allocation decisions. The DIMSUMnet architecture of the present invention also introduces a RAN manager element to centralize the task of acquiring time bound spectrum leases and for configuring the base stations.
