Abstract:
Aspects of the disclosure relate to wireless communication systems configured to utilize a shared spectrum between two or more network operators. Coexistence between the different network operators on the shared spectrum may be provided by reserving resources for exclusive use by each of the network operators within a period of time that is variable based on the number of network operators. Non-exclusive use of resources may further be granted to one or more network operators in accordance with network operator priorities.

Claim (Index 19):
An apparatus within a wireless communication network, comprising:\n means for determining a number of network operators communicating over a shared spectrum channel, wherein the shared spectrum channel is time-divided into a plurality of superframes, each comprising an acquisition interval, a guaranteed interval and an opportunistic interval; means for determining a respective priority for each of the network operators on the shared spectrum channel; and for each of the network operators, means for allocating respective resources on the shared spectrum channel within the respective acquisition intervals of one or more of the plurality of superframes for exclusive use by the respective network operator based on the respective priority; wherein the network operators having higher priorities are allocated a same amount or more of the resources on the shared spectrum channel for exclusive use thereof than the network operators having lower priorities.
