This chapter presents a selection of potential deployment and application scenarios for Cognitive Radio and Software Defined Radio. The chapter goes beyond a simple review of scenarios by focusing on the viewpoint of several key players in wireless communication research and applications: regulators, researchers from the engineering and economic/business community, industrial partners and companies, either directly or through their involvement in national and EU-funded European projects. In this framework, two key issues related to scenario definition are addressed:\ud • An analysis of players that determine the evolution of scenarios, including both technical and economic/business aspects;\ud • Study of approaches for classification of CR deployment scenarios, with the aim of identifying a set of elements that allow creating taxonomy capable of fit-ting existing and new scenarios relevant to CR and SDR.\ud The chapter opens with an analysis of scenarios as proposed by ITU (Section 2.1, authored by Mustonen and Matinmikko), followed by the vision of a wide set of EU projects on CR scenarios (Section 2.2, by Matinmikko and Paavola). The im-pact of different regulatory and environmental conditions on application sce-narios is addressed in Section 2.3, where Sridhar and Basaure provide a compari-son between feasible scenarios in India and Finland. Section 2.4, by Mueck, Sri-kanteswara, Macdonald and El-Refaey, moves to the analysis of upcoming scenar-ios in Europe focusing on the concept of Licensed Shared Access as defined based on activities carried out in ETSI and CEPT. \ud Next, the chapter moves to aspects related to planning and classification of scenar-ios. In section 2.5 Medeisis and von der Emden propose a scenario plan-ning methodology aiming to support planning and classification of scenarios for Cogni-tive Radio and to help identify relevant business models. In Section 2.6 Medeisis, Holland and De Nardis propose an approach to the definition of a taxonomy of CR application scenarios, aiming at fitting present and future applications in a coher-ent framework. Finally, Section 2.7 by Cesar Gutierrez and Hamid Reza Karimi offers an example of very practical application scenario for deployment of White Space Devices in TV Bands as established by a harmonised European standard EN 301 598

“…The PL concept was proposed by us in [9] as a novel approach, in line with a wide range of spectrum sharing contracts and shared spectrum access rights as discussed above. PL is an innovative means to improve spectrum licensing, which is fair to both primary and secondary users and takes into account the requirements of both parties.…”

“…PL is an innovative means to improve spectrum licensing, which is fair to both primary and secondary users and takes into account the requirements of both parties. The concept is described as "the award of licenses under the assumption that opportunistic secondary spectrum access will be allowed, and that interference may be caused to the primary with parameters and rules that are known to the primary at the point of obtaining the license" [9]. The general assumption is that the primary will choose from a range of offered PLs, each with a different fee structure, and each specifying alternative opportunistic access rules that can be mapped to associated interference characteristics.…”

“…In this approach a device is allowed to use a spectrum band if a database does not include a conflicting higher order license user [6]. Also a European research driven pluralistic licensing model considers different levels of licenses and sharing conditions [7]. In Licensed Shared Access (LSA) approach, an incumbent shares its spectrum with a limited amount of LSA licensees in a way that interference is avoided [8].…”

As the amount of mobile data continues to grow rapidly, finding frequency bands without incumbent usage for mobile network operators (MNOs) in a harmonized manner becomes increasingly challenging. This motivates the search for new methods to increase the efficiency of current spectrum usage by exploring the new possibilities to allow multiple services to share the same frequency band in a controlled manner. This kind of spectrum sharing should be conducted in a way that requires minimum changes to the functionalities and the architecture of the systems involved and especially to the current holders of the spectrum usage rights, thus, the incumbent spectrum users. In this paper, we concentrate on the emerging Licensed Shared Access (LSA) concept which is currently receiving a lot of attention in European regulation and standardization. We discuss different types of incumbents and the critical factors for allowing spectrum sharing with LSA from their perspective. Finally, we propose an architecture for LSA that takes into account these critical factors while guaranteeing certain quality of service (QoS) conditions for all involved systems.
