Weiss n, Mohammed Altamimi, Liu Cui School of Information Sciences, University of Pittsburgh, 135 North Bellefield Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA 15260, USA a r t i c l e i n f o a b s t r a c t Available online 9 March 2012 Much of the research in dynamic spectrum access (DSA) has focused on opportunistic Keywords: access in the temporal domain. While this has been quite useful in establishing the Dynamic spectrum access technical feasibility of DSA systems, it has missed large sections of the overall DSA Spatio-temporal spectrum modeling problem space. This paper argues that the spatio-temporal operating context of specific Cost analysis environments matters to the selection of the appropriate technology for learning Context awareness context information. It identifies twelve potential operating environments and compares four context awareness approaches (on-board sensing, databases, sensor network, and cooperative sharing) for these environments. In order for operators, regulators, and users to be interested in deploying DSA based networks, the expected costs should be in proportion t
