A new spectrum management architecture for a flexible software defined radio (SDR) is proposed. In this architecture, the SDR hardware and software are certified separately so as not to destroy the SDR flexibility, but to ensure that any combinations of hardware and software are compliant to the radio regulations even at the system (vertical) handover, global (horizontal) handover, and upgrade (forward) or downgrade (backward) handover. This architecture is based on automatic calibration & certification unit (ACU), built-in GPS receiver, and radio security module (RSM). The ACU is a hardware embedded RF manager that dynamically controls the output power spectrum to be compliant to the local radio regulation parameters. This local radio regulation parameters are securely downloaded to the hardware as an electronic label of the SDR software and stored in the RSM which is a security manager of the hardware. The GPS position check is used, especially during roaming, to keep the compliancy of the terminal to each local radio regulations managed by the geographical region. The principle parties involved in this architecture are telecommunication certification body (TCB), SDR hardware maker (HW maker), SDR software maker (SW maker), and SDR user. The roles and relationships of these four parties in the proposed architecture are clarified in this paper.
