Patent number: 8265634Abstract: A wireless spectrum valuation system receives input data. The system processes the input data to identify and display a geographic area with a population density greater than the population density threshold. The system calculates and displays a number of cell sites required for an initial deployment in the identified geographic area and calculates a first number of subscribers per cell site. If the first number of subscribers per cell site is greater than a cell site utilization threshold, then the system calculates and displays an additional number of cell sites required for the initial deployment and recalculates a number of subscribers per cell site. The system calculates a number of carriers required per cell site, calculates a cost for the initial deployment, and calculates and displays a value of a wireless spectrum.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 2008Date of Patent: September 11, 2012Assignee: Sprint Communications Company L.P.Inventors: Stephen R.
