Abstract:
Embodiments of an Evolved Node-B (eNB), Local Controller (LC) device, and methods for allocation of shared spectrum for secondary usage are generally described herein. In some cases, primary usage of the shared spectrum may be prioritized over the secondary usage of the shared spectrum. The eNB may receive, from the LC device, a spectrum availability message that indicates an availability of the shared spectrum for the secondary usage. The eNB may transmit, to the LC device, spectrum sensing information that is based at least partly on one or more signal strength measurements for UEs connected to the eNB. The eNB may further transmit, to the LC device, a spectrum engagement message that indicates an intention of the eNB to use at least a portion of the shared spectrum for communication with the UEs.

Claim (Index 24):
A Local Controller (LC) device comprising transceiver circuitry and hardware processing circuitry, the hardware processing circuitry to configure the transceiver circuitry to:\n receive, from a Regional Controller (RC) device, one or more spectrum availability messages that indicate an availability of shared spectrum for allocation, by the LC device, for secondary usage by a group of one or more Evolved Node-Bs (eNBs); and transmit a spectrum allocation message to the eNBs to indicate an allocation of one or more portions of the shared spectrum to the eNBs for secondary usage, wherein the shared spectrum is at least partly reserved for primary usage by one or more incumbent devices, and the availability of the shared spectrum for the secondary usage is based at least partly on the primary usage.
