Abstract
Presented herein are methodologies for managing a citizens broadband radio service (CBRS) network. The methodology includes at a spectrum access system (SAS), receiving, from a Donor CBRS base station device (CBSD), a registration request, the registration request including capabilities information about a CBRS Relay Node with which the Donor CBSD communicates, in response to the registration request, sending, from the SAS to the Donor CBSD, a registration response indicating successful registration of the CBRS Relay Node, in response to the registration response, receiving via the Donor CBSD a spectrum enquiry message from the CBRS Relay Node seeking a channel allocation from the SAS, and in response to the spectrum enquiry message, sending from the SAS, and via the Donor CBSD, a resource grant response to the CBRS Relay Node, wherein the resource grant response includes an allocated channel and a maximum EIRP for the allocated channel.
