Request a grant to reserve a part of the spectrum. If the grant request is approved, the [reservation](/spectrum-access-system/docs/key-terms#reservation) is done but the Citizens Broadband Radio Service Device (CBSD) is not yet authorized to transmit by using the grant.\n2. Periodically send heartbeat requests for each of the approved grants to receive authorization to transmit.\n3. Relinquish the grant when the CBSD no longer uses a grant.\n\nThe following sections describe these steps.\n\nRequest a grant\n---------------\n\nAfter a CBSD decides on which frequency range it will\noperate, it sends a grant request to Spectrum Access System (SAS). SAS\napproves or rejects the request as needed to protect incumbents and sends the\nresult in a grant response. If the grant request is approved, SAS\nincludes the grant ID and the suggested `heartbeatInterval` value in the grant response.\nHowever, the CBSD is not yet allowed to transmit.\n\nIf the grant request is rejected, the CBSD does not get the grant\nand the CBSD can try for another spectrum inquiry. A request is\nrejected because it had invalid parameters or the CBSD requested\nspectrum is unavailable.\n\n### Request size and power for a grant\n\nA CBSD can request any grant size from 5 MHz to\n150 MHz. The grant size must always be a multiple of 5 MHz with start\nand end frequencies divisible by five. For example, a grant request for\n3640 MHz to 3655 MHz is correct, but a grant request for 3642 MHz\nto 3647 MHz is incorrect.\n| **Important:** The spectrum inquiry response always shows the spectrum availability in channels of 10 MHz.\n\nIf you request a grant for more than 10 MHz, the maximum approved\n[Effective Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP)](/spectrum-access-system/docs/key-terms#eirp)\nis the lowest from all channels within that range.\n\nFor example,\nSAS indicates that the range from 3550 MHz to 3560 MHz\ncan support an EIRP of 30 dBm/MHz, and the range from 3560 MHz to 3570 MHz can\nsupport an EIRP of 27 dBm/MHz. The device should conclude that 3550 MHz to\n3570 MHz is available with a maximum EIRP of 27 dBm/MHz, which\nis the minimum value from the relevant channels.\n\nSend heartbeat requests for authorization to transmit\n-----------------------------------------------------\n\nAfter the CBSD has a grant, it can send a heartbeat request for\nthat grant. A CBSD can have multiple grants, but it must send a\nheartbeat request for each one. The heartbeat request is used to ask\nSAS if the CBSD can transmit with the parameters it\nsent in the grant request.\n\nIf SAS approves the heartbeat request,\nthe CBSD is authorized to transmit until the `transmitExpireTime`\nvalue specified in the heartbeat response. To ensure that the CBSD\ncan continue to transmit, the CBSD must send a\nheartbeat request to SAS at least once before the\n`transmitExpireTime`. To maximize uptime and reliability of\nCBSDs connected to SAS, the\nCBSD should heartbeat at the suggested `heartbeatInterval` value in seconds\nspecified in the grant response.\n\nThe `transmitExpireTime``values from the heartbeat response and the`heartbeatInterval\\`\nvalues from the grant response depend on whether the CBSD is located in a\n[Dynamic Protection Area (DPA) neighborhood](/spectrum-access-system/docs/key-terms#dpa).\nIn such cases, the values depend on whether the grant is in the 3550 MHz to 3650 MHz range.\nThe following table describes this relationship:\n\nIn its heartbeat response, SAS can do one of the following:\n\n- **Authorize the grant:** the CBSD can start or continue to transmit.\n- **Terminate the grant:** SAS can't allow the grant to transmit while protecting incumbents.\n- **Suspend the grant:** the CBSD isn't allowed to transmit at the moment but might be able to transmit again.\n\nTo learn more about DPAs and reasons for grant suspension, see the following topics:\n\n- [Operate CBSDs near the coast](/spectrum-access-system/docs/cbsd/overview#cbsd-near-coast)\n- [SAS synchronization](/spectrum-access-system/docs/sas-sync)\n\nIf the CBSD does not receive a heartbeat response from\nSAS, it should send another heartbeat request after 30 seconds.\nThis period is the `retryInterval` value. To maximize the uptime of your CBRS network\nwith SAS, check with your CBSD manufacturer on how\nto set the `retryInterval` value to 30 seconds and the `heartbeatIntterval` value\nas suggested in the grant response.\n\nRelinquish a grant\n------------------\n\nIf a CBSD no longer needs a grant, it sends a relinquishment\nrequest to SAS. SAS responds with a relinquishment\nresponse, which approves the request.\n\nWhat's next\n-----------\n\n- Learn about [Spectrum Access System](/spectrum-access-system/docs/overview).\n- Learn about [key SAS terms](/spectrum-access-system/docs/key-terms).\n- [Troubleshoot SAS issues](/spectrum-access-system/docs/troubleshooting)."]]
