Opps,
Replied direct this is a bit one sided of the conversation but I want to
make certain the community is clear on this as CBRS is a valuable spectrum.
Unfortunately Shane this is incorrect. GAA is not significantly
different then any unlicensed spectrum as to interference avoidance.
But the SAS will typically have tools that will give you some info on
how to avoid channels already in use. This is truly useful.
As a CBRS GAA user, i can understand your confusion, When a SAS
(Spectrum Access System) states a channel is "free" that just means it
is not currently in use by a higher priority user such as an incumbent
or PAL user. Any GAA can request a channel in use in the area by
another GAA. You have no interference protection rights as a GAA / 3rd
tier user. Again the SAS can and should assist you with finding a clean
channel and potently working as a mediator between GAA users but there
is no guarantee or protections.
This might be helpful. @10:10 this video from google SAS's tech team
talks about this very thing.

What makes it different is once you've been allocated spectrum, which
for in-building use is almost guaranteed, no one else can use that
spectrum, so it's guaranteed. Unlike Wifi, where any device can
transmit in those frequencies.

What do you mean 3rd Tier?
General Authorized Access? Taken from some random site looking it up.

The spectrum is CBRS and there are MANY benefits to 5G over
Wifi, including but not limited to guaranteed spectrum.
For the 3rd tier I assume that works pretty much like wifi
spectrum, right? It seems to be at about 3.5Ghz so that would
be pretty short distance. Other than handoff what other
advantages does it have over wifi (can wifi do seamless l2
handoff these days?)

Why would somebody want this over wifi? And what
spectrum are they
using? They can't just camp on allocated spectrum, right?
