Abstract
Spectrum monitoring to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements is one of the key spectrum management activities that contribute to preventing harmful interference and improving the overall quality of spectrum. It protects the integrity of spectrum and radio environments, which in turn enables orderly implementation of related management activities such as spectrum engineering, planning, and licensing activities. This chapter presents an automated data-driven system that leverages advanced technologies to facilitate spectrum monitoring for scalable and efficient compliance verification. The goal of the system is to reduce the manual workload from spectrum managers by automatically collecting spectrum data from different sources, identifying compliance issues, and performing analytics to provide actionable insights. The automated data-driven system presented has great potential to speed-up the resolution of compliance issues and address a wide range of compliance issues.
