Abstract

Devices, systems, and methods for resource allocation of shared spectrum. In one embodiment, a server includes a communication interface, a memory, and an electronic processor. The communication interface configured to communicate with one or more servers via a backchannel, and control a terrestrial antenna to provide a wireless network. The electronic processor is configured to allocate bid units, determine whether an increase in spectrum is needed, control the communication interface to transmit a specified number of the bid units to the one or more servers over the backchannel, receive zero or more external bid units from each of the one or more servers, determine whether the zero or more external bid units from the each of the one or more servers is more than or equal to the specified number of the bid units, and control the communication interface to transmit information via the wireless network using the increase in the spectrum.
