This project investigates ways to share the electromagnetic (radio-frequency) spectrum using an automatic spectrum management system with the potential for order-of-magnitude gains over current static allocation practices. The project prototypes a management system for spectrum sharing within and among disparate services such as communications and active and passive scientific uses. The project involves two facilities in West Harlem, New York City: (i) the COSMOS testbed sponsored by the NSF Platforms for Advanced Wireless Research (PAWR) program and (ii) the Cooperative Science Center for Earth System Science and Remote Sensing Technologies sponsored by NOAA (NOAA-CESSRST). The two facilities are in an Innovation Zone created by the FCC to facilitate research and testing. The project uses systems available at the facilities for spectrum sharing experiments, potentially including: communications-passive sharing using a weather measurement radiometer at 28 GHz; terrestrial-satellite communications sharing using an environmental sensing satellite earth station receiver dish at 1.7 GHz or 7.7-8.2 GHz; communications-radar sharing using a weather monitoring radar at 9.5 GHz; and communications-communications sharing using unlicensed 5G cellular and WiFi networks at 6 GHz. The New York City dense urban environment is a stressful case for spectrum sharing. Techniques validated using these scenarios in an urban testbed are expected to function well in other cities as well as in less-dense environments. Enhancing spectrum sharing will increase the amount of wireless activity that can be supported in the limited available spectrum. In this way, the project helps sustain future economic growth, social benefits, and scientific discoveries that are threatened by growing spectrum congestion. In addition to the research and prototyping tasks, the project includes outreach to stakeholders, impact on education via an established Rutgers WINLAB summer program, and outreach to the local Harlem community building on an established program for teachers.The automatic system to be prototyped is called the Zone Management System (ZMS) of a Radio Dynamic Zone to be established around the two facilities. The ZMS represents a new spectrum management approach that combines a standardized fundamental information model, measurement-assisted decision making, scalable spectrum sensing, and continuous risk analysis and management. The fundamental information model of the ZMS is Spectrum Consumption Models (SCMs), recently standardized as IEEE 1900.5.2. SCMs capture the transmission and reception spectrum use boundaries of wireless systems so their compatibility (i.e., non-interference) can be arbitrated by efficient and standardized computational methods. This project develops techniques for efficiently generating SCMs and using them in a large-scale ZMS. The project develops spectrum sharing and interference management algorithms that use SCMs and measurement feedback to achieve high spectrum efficiency, low processing complexity and communication overhead, and scalability. The project also develops an adaptive scalable framework for spectrum sensing in a dense environment. The adaptation is controlled by a risk analysis subsystem that focuses monitoring resources on devices and situations most likely to cause interference, and to rapidly detect malicious actors. The ZMS is evaluated via simulations and via real-world experimentation at COSMOS and NOAA-CESSRST. The ZMS is envisioned as a pathfinder prototype for the broader concept of Radio Dynamic Zones. The project reduces risk for and contributes technology towards a potential future National Radio Dynamic Zone.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该项目研究了使用自动频谱管理系统共享电磁（射频）频谱的方法，该系统具有与当前静态分配实践相比的高度增长顺序提高的方法。该项目原型是一种管理系统，用于在沟通以及主动和被动的科学用途等不同服务内部和之间共享。该项目涉及纽约西哈林市的两个设施：（i）由NSF高级无线研究平台（PAWR）计划赞助的宇宙测试床，以及（ii）由NOAA（NOAA-CESSRST）赞助的地球系统科学和远程感应技术合作科学中心。这两个设施位于FCC创建的创新区，以促进研究和测试。该项目使用设施中可用的系统进行频谱共享实验，可能包括：使用28 GHz的天气测量光表进行通信 - 通过共享；陆地 - 卫星通信共享使用环境传感卫星地球站接收器盘以1.7 GHz或7.7-8.2 GHz； Communications-radar共享使用9.5 GHz的天气监测雷达；和通信通信共享6 GHz处的无牌5G蜂窝网络和WiFi网络。纽约市密集的城市环境是频谱共享的压力案例。在城市测试台中使用这些方案验证的技术预计在其他城市以及较少密集的环境中都可以很好地发挥作用。增强频谱共享将增加在有限的可用频谱中可以支持的无线活动的量。通过这种方式，该项目有助于维持未来的经济增长，社会利益和科学发现，这些发现受到频谱拥塞的威胁。除了研究和原型制定任务外，该项目还包括对利益相关者的宣传，通过既定的Rutgers Winlab夏季计划对教育的影响，以及在既定的教师计划中向当地的Harlem社区建筑进行宣传。原型的自动系统称为“区域管理系统（ZMS”），该系统围绕着两种电台的动态区域。 ZMS代表一种新的频谱管理方法，结合了标准化的基本信息模型，测量辅助决策，可扩展的频谱感应以及持续的风险分析和管理。 ZMS的基本信息模型是频谱消耗模型（SCM），最近标准化为IEEE 1900.5.2。 SCM捕获了无线系统的传输和接收光谱使用边界，因此它们的兼容性（即非干扰）可以通过有效且标准化的计算方法进行仲裁。该项目开发了有效生成SCM并在大规模ZM中使用的技术。该项目开发了使用SCM和测量反馈来实现高频谱效率，低处理复杂性和沟通开销以及可扩展性的频谱共享和干扰管理算法。该项目还开发了一个适应性的可扩展框架，用于在密集的环境中进行频谱传感。适应性由风险分析子系统控制，该系统将监视资源的重点放在最有可能引起干扰的设备和情况上，并迅速检测到恶意行为者。 ZMS通过模拟和宇宙和NOAA-CESSRST的现实世界实验进行评估。 ZM被设想为无线电动力区域更广泛概念的探路原型。该项目降低了对潜在的未来国家无线电动态区域的风险，并为技术贡献了技术。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并使用基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响审查标准，被认为值得通过评估来获得支持。
