Abstract
The Department of Defense (DoD) is developing policy-based spectrum management (PBSM) concepts, architectures, and capabilities to improve DoD's use of the electromagnetic spectrum, particularly in the area of edge networking. This use of PBSM is a paradigm shift in the way DoD will manage the use of the electromagnetic spectrum in support of Dynamic Spectrum Access (DSA) enabled Policy Based Radios (PBRs). The multifaceted implications of PBSM need to be understood so that required changes to spectrum-related business processes (and the data and automated capabilities used within these processes) can be identified and coordinated with stakeholders. A major element of PBSM is the generation, distribution, and consumption of Digital Spectrum Policy (DSP) by DSA-enabled PBRs. The US Army Communications Electronics Research Development Engineering Center (CERDEC) is developing a broad set of DSA/PBSM-related capabilities including tools to generate DSP. The Defense Information Systems Agency Defense Spectrum Organization (DSO) is developing enterprise solutions for DSA/PBSM. CERDEC and DSO collaborated with BAE Systems and Applied Communication Sciences on the development of an end-to-end PBSM architecture called DSA Policy Management Architecture (DPMA). This paper presents a summary of the architecture development.
