Systems and methods are described for managing usage of wireless network equipment in a spectrum band that is in the process of being cleared. A regulatory agency may repurpose spectrum bands and define a transition period during which current or former licensees must vacate the band. A new licensee may begin using the spectrum band subject to various regulations in effect during the transition period, such as a requirement that the new licensee not interfere with current or former licensees that have not yet vacated. A spectrum band transition management system may thus be used to manage wireless network equipment and spectrum usage during the transition period. The spectrum band transition management system allows the new licensee to track potential interference sources and their vacate dates, mitigate interference sent and received during the transition period, and engineer a network that makes efficient use of spectrum during and after the transition.
