Content for TS 28.301 Word version: 18.0.0
0 Introduction p. 4
The present document is part of a TS-family covering the 3rd Generation Partnership Project; Technical Specification Group Services and System Aspects; Telecommunication management; as identified below:
28.301
LSA Controller (LC) Integration Reference Point (IRP); Requirements
28.302
LSA Controller (LC) Integration Reference Point (IRP); Information Service (IS)
28.303
LSA Controller (LC) Integration Reference Point (IRP); Solution Set (SS) definitions
1 Scope p. 5
The present document specifies the requirements of the Licensed Shared Access (LSA) Controller (LC) Integration Reference Point (IRP). This IRP allows the NM to interact with the LC. This interaction with the LC enables the NM to configure NEs utilizing LSA spectrum resources.
The following two deployment scenarios are supported:
- one scenario in which the LC communicates LSA spectrum resource availability information to the NM, and
- one scenario in which the LC determines and communicates to the NM constraints on parameters of cells liable to use LSA spectrum resources.
2 References p. 5
The following documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of the present document.
- References are either specific (identified by date of publication, edition number, version number, etc.) or non-specific.
- For a specific reference, subsequent revisions do not apply.
- For a non-specific reference, the latest version applies. In the case of a reference to a 3GPP document (including a GSM document), a non-specific reference implicitly refers to the latest version of that document in the same Release as the present document.

4 Concepts and background p. 6
4.1 General p. 6
ETSI TS 103 235 [3], ETSI TS 103 379 [4], ETSI TS 103 154 [5] and ETSI TR 103 113 [6] describe a system architecture for operation of mobile broadband services in the 2 300 MHz - 2 400 MHz band under Licensed Shared Access (LSA), aimed at enabling access for mobile/fixed communication networks (MFCNs) in those CEPT countries where access to the band is foreseen but cannot be provided without restrictions due to incumbent usage.
This specification series describes the interface between the NM and LC.
4.2 Architecture p. 6
The LC is a kind of NMLS (see TS 32.101). The interface between the NM and LC is a Type 7 interface.
4.3 Functionality p. 6
Two deployment scenarios are considered and different functionality is specified for the interface between the LC and NM.
Deployment scenario 1:
In this scenario the LC is a relay for the LSRAI received from the LR. The LC forwards it to the NM.
Deployment scenario 2:
In this scenario the LSRAI is not forwarded to the NM. The LC computes radio configuration constraints based on the LSRAI received from the LR and radio planning parameters received from the NM. These radio configuration constraints are sent to the NM.
