Summary

• What is new: Proposes two new solutions for dynamic spectrum sharing between Wi-Fi and cellular technologies in 5G networks without needing modifications to current devices.
• Why this is important: Need for efficient utilization of shared spectrum among different radio access technologies in industrial settings.
• What the research proposes: Two dynamic sharing proposals allowing Wi-Fi and cellular technologies to coexist in the same spectrum by adapting existing IEEE 802.11 procedures for channel sharing.
• Results: Demonstrated that the proposed solutions enhance spectrum efficiency over direct coexistence between Wi-Fi and cellular technologies.
