  • Abstract
    Dynamic spectrum access networks and spectrum policy depend on accurate spectrum utilization statistics. This paper presents the architecture of a collaborative framework to measure, characterize and model the utilization of the spectrum. It provides statistical methods to classify measurements as either signal or noise. Finally, it introduces algorithms for estimating signal thresholds and spectrum occupancy, and presents a performance evaluation to test the accuracy of the algorithms
