Scope and Field of Application
|
This new Work Item focuses on creating a feasibility study and a related technical report that will address the different technical possibilities for local high-quality wireless networks (nomadic or fixed) to access spectrum temporarily on a shared basis. Application domains envisaged for such networks are typically deployed by vertical industries (e.g. Creative- and Culture Industries, eHealth, Factory and Process Automation, Public Safety) stipulating demanding QoS requirements (availability, reliability and latency) for wireless communication. The technical report will document high-level use cases, review the feasibility of existing spectrum sharing frameworks, and if required propose evolved, extended or new technical solutions for spectrum sharing, and network architectures addressing different network topologies and device types. This includes systems using spectrum access grants for operation under certain restrictions , e.g. spectrum availability duration or (geo-)location. The objective is to identify whether current sharing frameworks, e.g. Licensed Shared Access, Spectrum Access System, etc., are appropriate for localized, high-QoS systems and to identify possible enhancements and/or alternatives on the technical solutions as appropriate.
