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 (27)

1. A system for spectrum analysis 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;

a radio receiver front-end subsystem configured to process the measured data, thereby creating processed data;

a frequency domain programmable channelizer configured to analyze the processed data; and

a noise floor estimator.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein one or more of the at least one monitoring sensor is mounted on a drone, on a vehicle, in or on a street light, in or on a traffic pole, and/or on top of a building.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the frequency domain programmable channelizer includes a comparison at each receiver channel of the at least one monitoring sensor, and wherein the comparison provides anomalous detection using a mask with frequency and power.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the frequency domain programmable channelizer includes channelization selector logic for a table lookup of filter coefficient and channelization vectors.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the radio receiver front-end subsystem includes a radio-frequency integrated circuit (RFIC), a digital down-converter (DDC), and a field programmable gate array (FPGA).

6. The system of claim 1 , further including at least one data analysis engine, a semantic engine, and/or an optimization engine.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein data from the frequency domain programmable channelizer is operable to calculate a power spectral density (PSD).

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the system is operable to characterize events which led to an interference scenario and/or perform interference source modeling to forecast future probabilities of interference.

9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the frequency domain programmable channelizer includes at least one channel definition, at least one channelization vector, at least one fast Fourier Transform (FFT) configuration, at least one deference matrix, at least one detector configuration, and/or at least one channel detection.

10. The system of claim 1 , further comprising a blind detection engine.

11. The system of claim 1 , wherein the system is operable to identify interference.

12. A system for spectrum analysis 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;

a radio receiver front-end subsystem configured to process the measured data, thereby creating processed data;

a frequency domain programmable channelizer configured to analyze the processed data; and

a blind detection engine.

13. The system of claim 12 , wherein one or more of the at least one monitoring sensor is mounted on a drone, on a vehicle, in or on a street light, in or on a traffic pole, and/or on top of a building.

14. The system of claim 12 , wherein the frequency domain programmable channelizer includes a comparison at each receiver channel of the at least one monitoring sensor, and wherein the comparison provides anomalous detection using a mask with frequency and power.

15. The system of claim 12 , wherein the frequency domain programmable channelizer includes channelization selector logic for a table lookup of filter coefficient and channelization vectors.

16. The system of claim 12 , wherein the radio receiver front-end subsystem includes a radio-frequency integrated circuit (RFIC), a digital down-converter (DDC), and a field programmable gate array (FPGA).

17. The system of claim 12 , further including at least one data analysis engine, a semantic engine, and/or an optimization engine.

18. The system of claim 12 , wherein the system is operable to characterize events which led to an interference scenario and/or perform interference source modeling to forecast future probabilities of interference.

19. The system of claim 12 , wherein the system is operable to identify interference.
