Abstract
Wireless transmissions from a user of a spectral resource are sensed by operating receiver equipment within a user equipment to receive signals within a given bandwidth around a given carrier frequency. If the user equipment is not readily capable of analyzing the received signals to ascertain whether the signature pattern of the user is present in the received signals, then it works cooperatively with a remote unit to analyze the received signals to ascertain whether a signature pattern of the user is present in the received signals. Results of the analysis are reported to a main node. The remote unit can provide software to the user equipment and/or perform at least part of the analysis for the user equipment.
