Abstract
This paper discusses a spectrum broker service for micro-operator and Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) Priority Access Licenses (PAL). The spectrum broker service provides a marketplace for selling and leasing of spectrum resources. The micro-operator licenses are regional, and possibly temporal, mobile network spectrum licenses for a confined service area like for a factory, a campus, or a hospital. CBRS opens the 3.5 GHz band for Dynamic Spectrum Access (DSA) in the US. PAL is the middle priority level license in CBRS. The paper introduces a new service model for spectrum brokering. The required functionalities of the service are described, and a new automated spectrum pricing model is proposed for the broker service.
