Abstract
A monitoring device (141) can include a transceiver (202) to receive a radio signal, and a controller (203) communicatively coupled to the transceiver to detect an infringement on the radio signal and report the infringement to a database. One or more policies within the database can be updated to mitigate the infringement. The monitoring device can also detect whether a cognitive radio (111) is generating interference on a primary spectrum used by an incumbent device (151). Other embodiments are disclosed.
