- BSS can be divided into infrastructure BSS and Independent BSS (IBSS).
- IBSS Independent BSS
- the BBS shown in FIG. 1 is an IBSS.
- the IBSS means a BSS that does not include an AP. Since the IBSS does not include an AP, access to the DS is not allowed, thereby forming a self-contained network.
- FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating another example of a configuration of a WLAN system.
- the BSS shown in FIG. 2 is an infrastructure BSS.
- Infrastructure BSS includes one or more STAs and APs.
- communication between non-AP STAs is performed via an AP.

- the DS is not necessarily a network, and there is no limitation on the form if it can provide a predetermined distribution service.
- the DS may be a wireless network such as a mesh network or a physical structure that connects APs to each other.
- Spectra that are not used by a licensed device are called whitespace and can be used by an unlicensed device.
- the STA or the AP In order for the STA or the AP to protect the licensed device, only the channel not used by the licensed device must be used. Channels that are available to unlicensed devices because they are not being used by a licensed device are called available channels.
- the most basic method for the STA or AP to determine the availability of a TV channel includes a method of determining a TV channel schedule by accessing spectrum sensing and a database (DB).
- the information of the DB includes information such as usage schedule of a specific channel of a licensed device at a specific location. Therefore, an STA or AP that wants to determine whether a TV channel is available must access a DB through the Internet and obtain DB information based on its location information.
- the STA In order to access the network, the STA must find a network that can participate. The STA must identify a compatible network before joining the wireless network. A network identification process existing in a specific area is called scanning. There are two types of scanning methods, active scanning and passive scanning.
- FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of active scanning.
- the STA performing scanning transmits a probe request frame and waits for a response to discover which AP exists in the vicinity while moving channels.
- the responder transmits a probe response frame to the STA that transmits the probe request frame in response to the probe request frame.
- the responder is the STA that last transmitted the beacon frame in the BSS of the channel being scanned.
- the AP transmits a beacon frame, so the AP becomes a responder.
- the responder is not constant because the STAs in the IBSS rotate and transmit the beacon frame.
- the scanning STA 300 transmits a probe request frame 305
- Responder 1 310 of BSS1 and Responder 2 320 of BSS2 that have received the probe request frame are each probe response frame 1 ( 315 and the probe response frame 2 325 are transmitted to the scanning STA 300.

- the AP In the infrastructure BBS, the AP periodically transmits a beacon frame.
- the STA that performs the scanning receives the beacon frame, the STA stores the information on the BSS included in the beacon frame and records beacon frame information in each channel while moving to another channel.
- the beacon frame 1 415 transmitted by the AP1 410 of the BSS1 and the beacon frame transmitted by the AP2 420 of the BSS2 are performed by the scanning STA 400 performing the channel scanning on the specific channel by the passive scanning method. If 2 425 is received and the beacon frame 3 435 transmitted by AP3 430 of BSS3 is not received, the scanning STA 400 stores that two BSSs (BSS1 and BSS2) are found in the measurement channel. And move to another channel.
- BSS1 and BSS2 two BSSs
- active scanning has the advantage of less delay and power consumption than passive scanning.
- Unlicensed devices operating in the white space band may be classified into an enabling STA and a dependent STA.
- the activating STA is an STA capable of activating the dependent STA.
- the activating STA may transmit a signal without receiving an enabling signal and may initiate a network.
- the activating STA may provide geo-location information to a database (DB) and obtain available channel information available at the geographic location from the DB.
- the activating STA does not necessarily need to be a WLAN STA, but may be a logical entity or a network server capable of providing services related to activation.
- a dependent STA is a STA that can transmit a signal only when receiving an activation signal and is controlled by the activation STA.
- the dependent STA must be activated through the activating STA and cannot be independently activated.
- 5 is a diagram illustrating an example of an activation process of an STA.
- IEEE 802.11y is a standard created for the operation of unlicensed devices in the 3.5 GHz band.
- the activation process is described, and the activation process is called Dynamic STA Enablement (DSE).
- DSE Dynamic STA Enablement
- the process of activating the dependent STA by the activating STA may follow a process similar to the dynamic STA activation of IEEE 802.11y.
- the activation process applied in the white space may not necessarily be the same as the DSE process, but basically the same in that STAs dependent on the corresponding band / channel may transmit signals only after receiving the activation signal.
- the activating STA may transmit a beacon or probe response frame including an activation signal to the dependent STA (S510).
- a signal indicating that activation is possible is called an enabling signal.
- a beacon or probe response frame including an activation signal element corresponds to an activation signal.
- the dependent STA that receives and decodes the activation signal transmits an activation request frame to the activation STA using the channel receiving the signal (S520), and receives an activation response frame from the activation STA.
- Receive S530.
- the unlicensed device acquires a channel, that is, available channel information, that does not interfere with the preferred user at a specific location in order to protect the preferential user. It can operate accordingly.
- the available channel information may include an available channel list, which is a collection of one or more available channels.
- the available channel information obtained by the activating STA from the DB and / or the available channel information (or available channel list) obtained by the dependent STA from the activating STA are provided in the form of a white space map (WSM). Can be.
- the Available Channel List (WSM) may be transmitted and received between STAs according to the example of FIG. 5, or may be provided through a Channel Availability Query (CAQ) request / response or the like.
- CAQ Channel Availability Query
- FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating an example in which a WLAN channel is allocated to a frequency band corresponding to the available channel information described above.
- FIG. 6 (a) shows available channel information from channel 1 (CH1) to channel 5 (CH5).
- FIG. 6 (b) shows available channel information from channel 1 (CH1) to channel 4 ( It is an example in the case of up to CH4).
- 6 (a) shows that a WLAN channel having a bandwidth of 5 MHz, 10 MHz, and 20 MHz may be allocated using the center frequency of channel 3 as the center frequency.
- FIG. 6 (b) shows that WLAN channels having a bandwidth of 5 MHz, 10 MHz, and 20 MHz may be allocated using the center frequencies of the channels 2 and 3 as the center frequencies.
- the WLAN channel of 20 MHz cannot be used and the WLAN channel of 10 MHz Can only be used to reduce the maximum transmit power in relation to adjacent channels.
- an adjacent channel means a channel directly attached to both sides (high and low frequency directions) of the channel.
- the maximum transmit power level of the unlicensed device is approximately 100 mW.
- the maximum transmit power level of the unlicensed device may be limited to 40 mW (this takes into account the Federal Communications Commission Regulation for the adjacent channel. For the purpose of security, security rules, etc., the rules to be followed in communication in the white space band have been established, and devices that do not meet the FCC regulations should be prohibited from operating in the white space band. If a signal from a primary user is detected in the licensor, the unlicensed device should reduce the transmit power on that channel currently in use.)
- channel bonding may be used. That is, in FIG. 6, although a WLAN channel having a bandwidth of 10 MHz in a frequency band corresponding to available channel information is contigiously allocated in a frequency band corresponding to channels 2 and 3, as shown in FIG. 7. Likewise, if the channel band is non-contigious and is allocated with channel bonding, it can be used as a WLAN channel having a bandwidth of 10 MHz.
- WSM White space map
- the WSM is a map in which information about a channel that can be used by an unlicensed device in the TVWS band based on channel and frequency information obtained from a DB by a STA is formed.
- the WSM includes an available channel list or frequencies available to unlicensed devices.
- the channels included in the available channel list are channels that are not used by signals that are legally protected and are available to the unlicensed device when the unlicensed device accesses the DB.
- the licensed device may include information about a channel and a frequency available from the point in time.
- information about the available channel and frequency may be transmitted by signaling a channel that the unlicensed device cannot use.
- the channel of the available channel list may be a channel having granularity of the smallest unit provided by the DB. That is, when the channel of the minimum unit provided by the TV band DB for the TVWS is a TV channel, the available channel list becomes a TV channel list that can be used by the unlicensed device. For example, in the United States and Korea, the list is made up of 6-MHz TV channel numbers, and in other countries, the list is made up of 7-MHz or 8 MHz TV channels. According to a specific country and regulation, a channel of the available channel list may be a TV channel, or may be information signaling another type of information about a frequency band.
- the Country code field provides information on the position of the Channel Map field following the field. That is, the range of the TV band and the bandwidth of the TV channel may be different in each country. Accordingly, the country code field may provide information on the physical location of the TV channel available to the STA that receives the WSM together with the channel map field.
- the country code field may include country code information of 3 octets. Specifically, the first two octets represent the country code defined in ISO / IEC 3166-1, and the last octet represents the environment.
- the Country code field is not limited thereto and may include more detailed information than country code information, for example, a region code value in a specific country.
- the Channel Map field indicates available channel information.
- the basic unit of the Channel Map field does not necessarily have to be a TV channel bandwidth, but may be channel information of the smallest basic unit provided by the DB of the corresponding regulation.
- the Channel Map field may include an available TV channel number and a maximum transmit power value corresponding to each available TV channel according to the regulations. This is shown in FIG. That is, as shown in FIG. 9 (a), the maximum power information (Max. Transmission Power level on Channel N field) that can be transmitted in the frequency band corresponding to the available TV channel number (Channel Number N field) and the available TV channel number. ) May be included. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 9 (b), the maximum power information (Max.
- Transmission Power level on Channel N field that can be transmitted in the frequency band corresponding to the available TV channel number (Channel Number N field) and the available TV channel number.
- the information (Validity time field) on the time when the available TV channel number is valid may be made as a set for one available TV channel.
- the available TV channel number and the maximum transmittable power information in the channel number may be transmitted through a Channel Bitmap field configured as a bitmap.
- a bitmap consisting of 1 for an available channel number and 0 for an unavailable channel number may be used in the entire channel list.
- TV channels allowed to be transmitted between 802.11 APs and STAs in the TVWS band correspond to channels 21 to 51 with 6Mhz bandwidth. That is, it is necessary to indicate whether or not there is a main user for 30 TV channels. If the main user exists from 21 to 51 in ascending order from low TV channel number or descending order from high TV channel number, 0 (that is, Not available), 1 if not present (enabled), or vice versa.
- the Starting Channel Number (S) field indicates how many TV channels the bitmap starts from.
- the Number of Channels (L) field indicates how many channels are available from the starting channel number in the bitmap, and the length of the channel bitmap that follows may be determined by the value of this field.
- FIG. 11 is another example of a Channel Map field.
- an available channel is reported as a frequency band instead of a TV channel number.
- the Start frequency field may indicate the start of a frequency band usable in the TVWS band
- the Stop frequency field may indicate the end of the frequency band and signal the maximum transmit power available in the corresponding section.
- Characteristic of the TVWS band Since the usable frequency band is likely to exist non-continuously, the start frequency field, stop frequency field, max. allowed transmission power field A tuple consisting of these three fields may be repeated. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 11 (b), the process may be repeated including a validity time field.
- Center frequency field is the center frequency of the frequency band corresponding to the available channel in TVWS
- Channel Bandwidth field is the bandwidth information of the frequency band
- Max Max.
- the allowed transmission field indicates the maximum transmittable power.
- the Device Type field indicates whether the available channel information is for a TV channel region allocated to a personal / portable device or assigned to a fixed device. Indicates whether it is for the TV channel area. Description of the specific device type will be described later.
- the information of the Channel Map field varies according to the device type.
- the fixed device and the personal / portable device receiving the WSM should be able to distinguish which channel map corresponds to the information. This can be done by indicating whether the channel map is for the fixed device or the personal / portable device through the device type when the fixed mode of the master mode transmits the channel map.
- FIG. 13 is a diagram for explaining that available channels vary according to device types.
- the fixed device when the main user occupies channel 21 and channel 25, the fixed device includes a channel CH22, adjacent to the channel occupied by the main user, as shown in FIG. 13 (b). It can operate at 4W maximum power in channel 23 except CH24).
- the personal / portable device can operate at 40 mW maximum power in the channels CH22 and CH24 adjacent to the channel occupied by the main user and at 100 mW maximum power in channel 23, as shown in FIG. 13 (c). That is, even if the channels not occupied by the main user are the same due to the relationship with the adjacent channel, available channel information according to the device type may be different.
- the FCC's regulations for TVWS currently define two types of device types. Specifically, the device may be classified into a personal / portable device (hereinafter, referred to as a P / P device) that a small output individual can carry and a fixed output device that operates at a fixed position. . These two types of devices have different operating rules when operating in TVWS.
- Fixed devices send and receive signals at specific locations where their location does not change.
- the fixed device also needs to access the DB to obtain available channel information in order to transmit a signal at the corresponding location.
- the fixed device may have a built-in device such as a GPS, but the location may be directly input by the installer, and the location information may be transmitted to the DB.
- the stationary device may serve the same stationary device or the P / P device.
- the available channel list for each device type is different.
- fixed devices can transmit signals in the frequency ranges of 54--60 MHz, 76--88 MHz, 174--216 MHz, 470--512 MHz bands, as well as in the frequency ranges of 512--608 MHz, 614--698 MHz bands. Is allowed.
- the P / P device is not allowed to transmit signals in the TVWS band in other frequency bands than the frequency ranges of the 512-608 MHz and 614-698 MHz bands.
- Fixed devices can transmit signals at higher power than P / P devices. Transmission powers up to 4 Watts of Effective Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) are allowed.
- EIRP Effective Isotropic Radiated Power
- P / P device is a device that can transmit / receive signal at unspecified location, and its location can be changed. In most cases, it is a device that can be carried by a person and cannot be predicted in terms of its mobility. Available frequency bands range from 512 MHz to 608 MHz, 614 MHz to 698 MHz, and the maximum transmit power is 100 mW (EIRP).
- EIRP 100 mW
- the P / P device has an identification capability for its location, that is, geo-location capability and access to a geo-location database via Internet access. For example, the device may be classified into two types, a mode I device and a mode II device.
- the mode II device may access the geographic location DB to obtain information about available channels at its location and then operate in the TVWS at that location. After acquiring the available channel information from the DB, the communication can be started by transmitting a signal for instructing the mode I device to start the communication.
- mode I devices do not require the ability to access a geographic location DB. Therefore, it must be controlled by a mode II device or a stationary device.
- the fixed device operates by accessing a DB at a fixed location to obtain available channel information.
- the fixed device can provide a service to a P / P device.
- the P / P device may serve a P / P device or a fixed device. In this case, the P / P device should also obtain available channel information corresponding to the fixed device from the DB.
- the TVWS DB calculates and delivers available channel information for each device type at a location requested by an unlicensed device in consideration of a main user such as a DTV and a microphone. Factors to consider when calculating available channel information in DB include device type, geographic location to operate, transmit power and spectrum mask. Depending on the type of device, FCC regulations also determine whether or not adjacent channels are used. For example, when a DTV is in use on channel 30, the stationary device will use these channels 29 and 31 even if channels 29 and 31 are empty. P / P devices can use these two channels.
- high-power fixed devices and low-power devices are used in bands that can be used by high-power fixed devices and low-power P / P devices other than those that only high-power fixed devices can use.
- a plan for coexistence between P / P devices in the system should be prepared. When a high power stationary device transmits signals at up to 4 Watts, the signals from nearby small output P / P devices will be subject to extreme interference.
- Fixed devices can serve P / P devices as well as fixed devices, and P / P mode II devices can also serve fixed devices.
- the DB should receive available channel and frequency information that can be used by the fixed device, and also available channel and frequency information that can be used by the P / P device. You need to get it from the DB or from a proxy server connected to the DB.
- the available channel and frequency information provides the channel and frequency bands that the device can transmit.
- fixed devices can transmit signals in the VHF band at very low frequency bands.
- P / P devices are not available in some VHF bands is because of their mobility, to limit the possibility of affecting existing equipment.
- DTV signals of hundreds to thousands of MWatt power are also transmitted in the corresponding TVWS bands. Due to the inter-modulation of harmonics (3rd harmonics), it may act as an interference to an active channel of an unlicensed band.
- a signal transmitted by neighboring STAs may also be an interference factor for a specific STA to receive a signal. This interference needs to be filtered out at the receiving end, which can significantly increase the cost of equipment using unlicensed bands.
- the present invention proposes a frequency division duplex (FDD) scheme that separates transmission and reception in a WLAN system of a TVWS band in order to efficiently use frequency resources and mitigate interference during transmission and reception.
- FDD frequency division duplex
- the first embodiment relates to a method for transmitting and receiving signals between a fixed device, which is a first type of device, and a P / P device, which is a second type of device, by using an FDD scheme.
- the fixed device may be regarded as a fixed AP (P / P), and the P / P device may be regarded as an STA receiving service from the fixed AP. Since the network is composed of different types of devices, and different WSMs are required according to device types, each device must have at least two kinds of available channel and frequency information. Therefore, the fixed device should receive from the DB available channel information for its device type and available channel information at the corresponding location for the P / P device at its location. Thereafter, each available channel information can be delivered to the P / P device accessing the fixed device.
- the fixed device mainly transmits signals in the VHF band and the reception uses the UHF band
- the P / P device mainly receives and receives signals from the fixed device in the VHF band and transmits in the UHF band.
- One of the advantages of this approach is the use of fixed duplexers for the VHF and UHF bands. STA corresponding to the end-user, the terminal does not need to worry about the strong interference signal coming into the co-channel or adjacent channel from the surrounding of the terminal. This is because these interference signals are signals transmitted in the UHF band, but the signal that the terminal intends to receive from the AP will be transmitted through the VHF band.
- the fixed duplexer filer can sufficiently alleviate the interference signal coming from the UHF band, and thus it may not be necessary to use a tunable duplexer for filtering the interference signal between the terminals.
- cell-planning may be enabled in a WLAN system of TVWS.
- the fixed APs When all fixed APs transmit signals in the VHF band and STAs all configure signals in the UHF band, the fixed APs are located at a sufficient distance from each other and STAs communicating with a specific AP are located close to the AP. Since it will be located, the need to consider the interference between the AP and the AP or the interference between the STA and STA can be greatly reduced.
- FIG. 14A illustrates a WSM for a fixed device
- FIGS. 14B and 14C illustrate an WSM for a P / P device.
- FIG. 14 illustrates that the WSM is made up of available channels and sets of transmit power information in the channels, the WSM is not necessarily limited thereto. That is, various examples of the WSM described above or a WSM derived therefrom may be used.
- the WSM for a fixed device may transmit a signal at a power of 1 Watt on a channel 13, 18, and / or 42 channel, respectively.
- WSM for a P / P device indicates that the P / P device can transmit signals at 40mW power on channel 41 and at 100mW power on 42nd and / or 43rd.
- the channel may be determined as a downlink channel.
- channels 41 and 43 which are available only for P / P devices, and channel 42, which are common channels for fixed devices and P / P devices, can be used to transmit signals from P / P devices to fixed devices. It can be determined as a transmission channel (uplink channel).
- the downlink channel or the uplink channel may be determined as any one channel of available channel information (for example, 41 in the case of uplink), but may be determined as two channels. In this case, two channels may be bonded by You can also use larger bandwidth.
- channels 42 for transmitting signals to the P / P device are used.
- the downlink channel may be a super set of the uplink channel.
- the uplink channel may be ⁇ 42 ⁇
- the downlink channel may be ⁇ 13, 18, 42 ⁇ , which is its superset.
- channel 42 only one channel 42 can communicate bi-directionally between the fixed device and the P / P device. Therefore, in the case of TDD (Time Divisional Duplex) WLAN communication, the channel capable of communicating between the fixed device and the P / P device is very limited (channel 42 in the above example), but the embodiment of the present invention By using the FDD scheme, more channel and frequency resources are required for communication between the two devices, thereby enabling efficient resource usage.
- TDD Time Divisional Duplex
- the AP may transmit a signal according to available channel information.
- An STA wishing to receive a signal from the AP may scan the AP based on available channel information of the AP. Scanning in this case may be passive scanning because there is a high possibility that the available channel of the AP and the available channel of the STA do not coincide.
- the STA may transmit a signal only to a channel allowed in its available channel information.
- the STA itself may perform active scanning, such as sending a probe request frame on its available channel, in which case the probe response frame of the AP receiving the probe receives the probe request frame. It should be transmitted on a channel that can be transmitted by an actual AP, not one channel. Therefore, in the beacon frame transmitted by the AP, the AP should inform which channel the probe request frame is being received.
- the downlink channel transmitting the beacon frame should be selected from available channels of the AP, and the uplink channel through which STAs transmit signals to the AP should be selected from available channels available to the STA.
- the AP selects a channel from its available channel information and sends a downlink signal, and broadcasts the available channel information of the STA at its location and receives a signal from the AP, and the STA receives a specific channel from the available channel information.
- the AP does not need to broadcast available channel information corresponding to the device type of the AP itself, but broadcasts available channel information corresponding to the other device type to be serviced so that communication between different device types can be performed. Should be.
- the available channel information transmitted at this time may be partial channel information selected by the AP or WLAN channel information reconfigured by the AP from among available channel information corresponding to the STA for WLAN channel operation.
- the AP selects a downlink channel from available channel information indicated by the WSM corresponding to its device type, and an uplink to receive a signal from the STA in the WSM corresponding to the device type of the STA to be serviced. Select a channel.
- the STA scans the AP in the WSM corresponding to the device type of the AP, finds the downlink of the AP, receives a downlink signal from the AP, and transmits an uplink signal in the WSM corresponding to the device type of the AP. Can be.
- the channel on which the uplink signal is transmitted is selected by the AP.
- the STA notifies the STA of where its uplink channel is located, and when the STA transmits its uplink signal, in particular, in a probe request frame during an initial setup step, the STA Where the downlink channel is received, that is, the channel for receiving the signal of the AP should be informed. Then, the AP may send a probe response frame to the corresponding channel, including the downlink channel and uplink channel information that the actual AP is using in the BSS.
- the second embodiment uses FDD in TVWS as in the first embodiment described above, but the peer-to-peer communication between the fixed devices or the mode II devices when the first type and the second type are the same. It is about a method.
- the fixed device or the mode II device may obtain available channel information at its current location from a geo-location database. If the available channel information is, for example, available channel information of device A is channels 20, 21 and 22, and available channel information of device B is channels 22, 23 and 24, device A and device Commonly available channel between B is channel 22. When performing P2P communication between two devices, it is preferable to operate on channel 22. To this end, a negotiation process for an operating channel is required between devices.
- the device B cannot transmit a signal to the device A through the operation channels 20, 21, and 22 that the device A is using. However, if the device B is waiting in the reception mode on the operating channel of the device A (for example, channel 21), the device A may transmit a signal to the device B on its operating channel. Similarly, device A cannot transmit a signal to device B on an active channel (at least one of channels 22, 23, and 24) that device B is using, but device A is waiting in receive mode on device B's operating channel. Device B may send a signal to device A on its operating channel.
- 'fixed device A or mode II device A' will be referred to as 'device A' and 'fixed device B or mode II device B' will be referred to as 'device B'.
- mode I device A and device A perform communication using channel 20 (CH 20), and mode I device B and device B perform communication using channel 23 (CH 23).
- CH 20 channel 20
- CH 23 channel 23
- the operating channels of the device A and the device B are different from the channel 20 (CH 23), respectively.
- the signal transmission between the mode I device and the device A, and the mode I device B and the device B may be performed by the FDD method as described in the first embodiment, but is shown in the TDD method for convenience of description.

- device A stays in the receive (RX) state.
- Channel 23 (CH 23) does not correspond to the available channel information of the device A and can not be transmitted (TX) to the device B.
- device B may send a signal 1501 to device A.
- device B cannot receive signals from device A. This is because channel 23 (CH 23) is a channel available only to device B and is not available to device A.
- device A switches the operating band from channel 23 (CH 23) to channel 20 (CH 20) again (1503), and device A and mode I device A transmit and receive signals to and from channel 20 (CH 20). I can see that.
- the operating band can be switched to the channel 20 (CH 20) to receive a signal from the device A while operating on the channel 23 (CH23) of its own operating band.
- the device A switches to the operation channel CH 23 of the device B for a predetermined time and operates only in the reception mode, thereby enabling communication even when there are no usable common channels.
