Mirza Golam Kibria, Gabriel Porto Villardi, Kien Nguyen, Wei-Shun, Liao, Kentaro Ishizu, Fumihide Kojima

TL;DR
This paper proposes a shared spectrum access framework with a neutral host micro operator network that enables tailored venue services, efficient spectrum sharing, and optimized network slicing for diverse use cases and multiple MNOs.
Contribution
It introduces a novel architecture and dynamic spectrum allocation policies for shared spectrum access, supporting coexistence of multiple SIs and MNOs in a single infrastructure.
Findings
Supports independent and efficient network slicing in shared spectrum environments.
Ensures quality of service and fair competition among different SIs.
Provides cost-effective, tailored wireless solutions for high-density venues.
Abstract
In this paper, we conceive an advanced neutral host micro operator (NH-{\mu}O) network approach providing venues with services tailored to their specialized/specific requirements and/or local context related services that the mobile network operators (MNOs) are poorly-suited to providing it, as well as mobile broadband experience to the users from MNOs in a venue where only a single infrastructure is mandated under shared spectrum access framework. A radio access network slicing concept is conceived to support and optimize both the slice instance (SI) use cases independently and efficiently by running all network implementations in parallel, simultaneously on a common physical network infrastructure. We devise a common shared architecture for the NH-{\mu}O small cell base stations and dynamic spectrum assignment control unit, and their required functionalities supporting coexistence of…
