Tier switching of spectrum access priority tier levels for networks in a multi-tier level spectrum access system is disclosed. The tier switching may be based on conditions in the networks to allow more efficient network/system operation. In an implementation, the switching of tier levels may be a swap of tier levels between a network/device and another network/device. In this case, the tier levelof a network/device is switched or swapped with the tier level of another network/device and each network device operates at the tier level of the other network/device. In another implementation, theswitching of tier levels may be a switching of tier levels used by a single network or a single device without any swap occurring with another network or device. In this case, the tier level of a network or device may be switched to another tier level for operation in the SAS. 公开了用于多层级频谱接入系统中的网络的频谱接入优先级层级的层切换。层切换可以基于网络中的条件以允许更高效的网络/系统操作。在实现中，层级的切换可以是网络/设备与另一网络/设备之间的层级交换。在该情况下，网络/设备的层级与另一个网络/设备的层级切换或交换，并且每个网络设备在另一个网络/设备的层级
