Last week, Sony Group and Mitsui announced the operation of Sony’s Dynamic Spectrum Access (DSA) technology using Airspan 5G Standalone base stations. The Japanese companies have also committed to jointly studying the commercial potential for this technology.
By optimizing the use of radio frequency resources, DSA technology is expected to help address the increase in data traffic resulting from the numerous use cases that 5G enables. The technology allows for centralized management of radio frequencies via a real-time resource management database, replacing the traditional method of managing each frequency band separately, making it possible for spatio-temporally underutilized spectrum to be allocated for use by new operators and users.
