Abstract

Systems, methods, and apparatuses for providing dynamic, prioritized spectrum utilization management. The system includes at least one monitoring sensor, at least one data analysis engine, at least one application, a semantic engine, a programmable rules and policy editor, a tip and cue server, and/or a control panel. The tip and cue server is operable utilize the environmental awareness from the data processed by the at least one data analysis engine in combination with additional information to create actionable data.

Claims (41)

1. A system for spectrum management in an electromagnetic environment comprising:

at least one monitoring sensor operable to monitor the electromagnetic environment and create measured data based on the electromagnetic environment;

at least one data analysis engine operable to analyze the measured data and create environmental awareness data;

at least one application;

a semantic engine including a programmable rules and policy editor; and

a tip and cue server;

wherein the at least one application includes a resource brokerage application, wherein the resource brokerage application is operable to optimize at least one resource to improve performance of at least one customer application and/or at least one customer device;

wherein the programmable rules and policy editor includes at least one customer goal, at least one rule, and/or at least one policy; and

wherein the tip and cue server is operable to use the environmental awareness data from the at least one data analysis engine to create actionable data.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the resource brokerage application is operable to control the at least one customer device, the at least one resource, and/or the at least one monitoring sensor.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the tip and cue server is operable to activate an alarm and/or provide at least one report based on the actionable data.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one monitoring sensor includes at least one antenna, at least one antenna array, at least one radio server, and/or at least one software defined radio.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the semantic engine is operable to create a semantic map including target data, and wherein the semantic engine is operable to analyze related data and/or data with similar characteristics to the target data.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the semantic engine further includes an editor, a language dictionary, a rule component, a syntax component, a logic component, a quadrature (Q) component, and/or a conditional set component.

7. The system of claim 1 , further including a certification and compliance application, wherein the certification and compliance application is operable to determine if the at least one customer application and/or the at least one customer device is behaving according to the at least one rule and/or the at least one policy.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the actionable data indicates that at least one signal of interest is behaving like a drone.

9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the actionable data is created in near-real time.

10. A method for spectrum management in an electromagnetic environment comprising:

providing a semantic engine including a programmable rules and policy editor, wherein the programmable rules and policy editor includes at least one rule and/or at least one policy;

monitoring the electromagnetic environment using at least one monitoring sensor and creating measured data based on the electromagnetic environment;

analyzing the measured data using at least one data analysis engine, thereby creating environmental awareness data;

optimizing resources to improve performance of at least one customer application and/or at least one customer device using a resource brokerage application; and

creating actionable data using a tip and cue server based on the analyzed data from the at least one data analysis engine.

11. The method of claim 10 , further comprising the resource brokerage application controlling the at least one customer device, the at least one resource, and/or the at least one monitoring sensor.

12. The method of claim 10 , further comprising the tip and cue server activating an alarm and/or providing at least one report based on the actionable data.

13. The method of claim 10 , wherein the at least one monitoring sensor includes at least one antenna, at least one antenna array, at least one radio server, and/or at least one software defined radio.

14. The method of claim 10 , further comprising the semantic engine creating a semantic map including target data, and the semantic engine analyzing related data and/or data with similar characteristics to the target data.

15. The method of claim 10 , wherein the semantic engine further includes an editor, a language dictionary, a rule component, a syntax component, a logic component, a quadrature (Q) component, and/or a conditional set component.

16. The method of claim 10 , further including a certification and compliance application determining if the at least one customer application and/or the at least one customer device is behaving according to the at least one rule and/or the at least one policy.

17. The method of claim 10 , wherein the actionable data indicates that at least one signal of interest is behaving like a drone.

18. The method of claim 10 , wherein the actionable data is created in near-real time.

19. A system for spectrum management in an electromagnetic environment comprising:

at least one monitoring sensor operable to monitor the electromagnetic environment and create measured data based on the electromagnetic environment;

at least one data analysis engine operable to analyze the measured data and create environmental awareness data;

at least one application;

a semantic engine including a programmable rules and policy editor; and

wherein the at least one application includes a resource brokerage application, wherein the resource brokerage application is operable to optimize at least one resource to improve performance of at least one customer application and/or at least one customer device;

wherein the programmable rules and policy editor includes at least one customer goal, at least one rule, and/or at least one policy;

wherein the semantic engine is operable to create a semantic map including target data; and

wherein the semantic engine is operable to analyze related data and/or data with similar characteristics to the target data.

20. The system of claim 19 , wherein the semantic engine further includes an editor, a language dictionary, a rule component, a syntax component, a logic component, a quadrature (Q) component, and/or a conditional set component.
