Benefits of Authorized Shared Access ASA takes advantage of the Cognitive Radiotechniques that were originally developed for theunlicensed TV White Space and uses them tofacilitate sharing in a given spectrum band bymultiple licensed networks Because the spectrum is licensed, ASA licenseescan ensure spectrum access and they can allocatecapital to build network infrastructure Since ASA spectrum is licensed, it becomes possiblefor the ASA network to provide predictable quality ofservice (QoS)8
