Join us as we introduce the Forum's newest reports on the future of spectrum sharing:

TR-2016 Developments Towards a More Robust and Dynamic Spectrum Sharing Framework
TR-2017 Time Scale Interpretations for Highly Dynamic Spectrum Sharing

Originally created by the Forum's Highly Dynamic Spectrum Sharing (HDSS) Work Group for the purpose of addressing some of the potential challenges and opportunities of the “moonshot”/Advanced Dynamic Spectrum Sharing demonstration (ADSSD), the resulting TR has applications beyond ADSSD, to any future bands (with any mix of incumbents and secondary users) that must be shared on a basis more dynamic than what is being implemented today.

The new application of several concepts relevant to spectrum sharing are discussed in TR-2016, including:
- Reducing the time over which secondary users react to changes in incumbent use from 24 hours (6 GHz Band) and 5 minutes (CBRS Band) to potentially seconds;
- Various incumbent detection/informing methods and their application to highly dynamic spectrum sharing (HDSS),
- Improvements to propagation prediction, such as the use of known signals for in-situ clutter loss characterization; and
- The use of closed-loop interference reporting to reduce dependence on propagation models altogether while ensuring incumbent protection.

While the HDSS group initially focused on the 3.1 GHz band, the concepts developed in TR-2016 are band agnostic and therefore applicable to any band where highly dynamic coexistence is needed, including support for airborne, shipborne, space, and ground-based communications.

Presenters include some of the authors of the report including:
- Andy Clegg of Baylor, and Chair of the HDSS Work Group
- Colby Harper, Pathfinder Wireless
- Rauf Hafeez, Charter
- Masoud Olfat, Federated Wireless
- Rich Lee, iPosi
