  3. RRM Extension Options • RRM blue stars show the likely location of RRM extensions, though RRM pink stars are (remotely) possible. • RRM Applications are outside the 802.11 specs. SME RRM Applications (outside 802.11) MAC SAP MAC MLME RRM MLME SAP RRM PHY SAP PLME SAP PLCP PLME RRM PLME SAP RRM PMD SAP PMD RRM Richard Paine, Boeing

  20. Static Spectrum Management is Limited in Its Ability to Improve Spectrum Utilization Efficiencies Future Allocation & Utilization • Fixed Spectrum Assignments Lead to Inefficient Spectrum Utilization • Opportunities Exist in Time, Frequency, and Geography • RF Spectrum Allocated by Policy • Allocations, Assignments, and Incumbents Vary by Country Heavy Use Heavy Use Sparse Use Medium Use • Observations Show Bands of Local Heavy and Sparse Activity • Temporal Usage Characteristics Vary by Band & Service • Potential for Usage Dependent on Incumbent Service & Equipment Richard Paine, Boeing
