Abstract: An unlicensed spectrum communication converter system and method allows 3GPP compliant integrated circuits (LTE, 5G) to be used in a unlicensed spectrum band communication system. In one implementation, each of the unlicensed spectrum base station and unlicensed spectrum user equipment (UE) may include a translation layer. The unlicensed spectrum communication converter system and method may be used with various unlicensed spectrums including, for example, television whitespace (TVWS) unlicensed spectrum, citizens broadband radio service (CBRS) and Wi-Fi (including all UNII bands from UNII-1 to UNII-8).

Abstract: A system and method for dynamic filtering permits a base station of an unlicensed spectrum communication system to filter out interference from an adjacent transmitter. In one embodiment, the unlicensed spectrum is television whitespace and the adjacent transmitter is a television broadcast transmitter.
