- One solution in accordance with the example embodiments of the invention includes a method for an efficient use of white spaces of the spectrum by secondary systems and/or users.
- the example embodiments of the invention relate to a novel method for a secondary basis use of white spaces of the spectrum. More particularly, the example embodiments of the invention provide a method which uses a geolocation database to determine proper channels of white spaces which can be used for secondary basis systems and/or users without causing interference to primary systems which are using the spectrum.
- a primary system is considered a system for which one or more channels of the frequency spectrum has been licensed and/or assigned. Parts of the frequency spectrum which are not assigned and/or used by primary system(s) may be referred to as white spaces.
- a white space maybe free for secondary usage locally and/or temporarily, as the primary systems and/or users may not be using the white space.
- Secondary systems and/or users may use a white space channel if the channel is detected as being free from use by another system, such as a primary system. This detecting can include sensing and/or receiving information from a database, such as a so called primary database.
- Examples of primary systems include systems for radio and television broadcasting, cellular telephony, maritime radio, police, fire, and public safety radio, GPS, radio astronomy, and earth stations for satellite communications to name only a few.
- Such secondary systems and/or users that can benefit from the unused space include systems and/or users related to wireless regional area network broadband access, such as for rural areas, wireless local area networks (e.g., IEEE 802.11), and wireless personal area networks, such as the industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) band networks, to name only a few.

- the example embodiments of the invention provide at least a method for a secondary basis use of white spaces of the spectrum which may be licensed to at least any of the primary systems as described above. Assigning any secondary communication to a white space is challenging for at least the reason that it must be ensured that any interference due to a white space device (WSD) of a secondary system does not interfere with a primary service, such as those described above, using another frequency/channel of the spectrum.
- WSD white space device
- WSD transmission power can be defined according to a criteria affording interference protection to the primary service. This criterion takes into account limitations of receivers in dealing with interference, as well as location aspects which relate to signal quality of the primary service.
- the example embodiments of the invention take into account that efficient usage of white spaces depends on the flexibility of WSD transmission power limits with respect to a specific location of a WSD.
- DTT digital terrestrial television
- the deployment of digital terrestrial television (DTT) represented an evolution from analogue terrestrial television in various aspects, providing improved image quality and a reduced use of the spectrum.
- This latter advantage of DTT provides motivation for a secondary basis use of parts of the spectrum defined for DTT broadcasting which are not used. These unused parts of the DTT spectrum can be referred to as TV white spaces.
- location probability is defined as the probability that a DTT receiver would operate correctly at a specific location.
- Other data related to the protection of the DTT service is overload threshold data, or a threshold level of interference at a DTT receiver.
- Interference above this threshold can cause a DTT receiver to lose its ability to discriminate between wanted DTT signals and interference signals.
- at least some interference protection limits must be respected in order to control degradation to the quality of the primary DTT service.
- EIRP maximum permitted isotropic radiated power
- a geolocation database can provide information related to positioning and can, in addition to a set of geographic coordinates, provide information regarding a particular location, for example a street address.
- the geolocation database can use data from advanced RF location systems. Utilizing, for example, Time Difference Of Arrival (TDOA) where greater specificity of location is possible. TDOA systems often utilize mapping displays or some other geographic information system. Further, geolocation data can include information regarding country, region, city, postal/zip code, latitude, longitude and time zone.
- TDOA Time Difference Of Arrival
- the CEPT and the FCC have presented operations for the possible use of TV white spaces for other communication.
- the reader is directed to [1] "FCC 08-260 Second Report and order and memorandum opinion and order, November 2008”
- the reader is directed to [2] "Draft ECC Report 159: Technical and Operational Requirements for the Possible Operation of Cognitive Radio Systems in the White Spaces of the Frequency Band 470- 790 MHz, January 2010."
- the FCC and CEPT have implemented standards which must be followed if a TV white space is to be utilized on a secondary basis.
- the FCC has implemented a standard that sets a fixed maximum power for white space devices
- the CEPT is discussing a similar standard but considers the degradation in the primary system in each location.
- the maximum transmission power limit is set according to specific WSD characteristics, such as in consideration of a classification of a device, for example a classification as portable or fixed device. It is noted that according to the FCC: "All devices, except personal/portable devices operating in client mode, must include a geolocation capability and provisions to access over the
- the FCC requires that some devices include a geolocation capability in order to determine occupancy of TV channels by fixed services.
- the FCC approach does not use a location of the device within a coverage area to determine a maximum transmission power limit and/or a maximum degradation value, as in accordance with the example embodiments of the invention.
- EIRP maximum permitted isotropic radiated power
- C adaptive level of location probability degradation
- This novel adaptive level of location probability degradation is determined using parameters including, but not limited to, a density of the receivers in a given area, an accuracy level of WSD location information, and a quality of primary service coverage in a given area. Using these parameters the adaptation of power may be defined based on location specific conditions, consequently resulting in an improved and efficient use of white spaces.
- the example embodiments of the invention provide a geolocation database algorithm which increases flexibility regarding the maximum permitted WSD power, while avoiding harmful interference to the primary service.
- Location specific WSD emissions are limited by a determined level of location probability degradation, where a reference protection ratio is considered and an overloading threshold is respected.
- the permitted level of degradation caused by WSD emissions, based on at least the location probability is adapted according to aspects related to a quality of the primary service coverage in the considered location, and specific characteristics of the location. Information regarding the density of primary receivers and the accuracy of the information about the WSD location can be used.
- an algorithm for a geolocation database to use adaptive degradation in location probability calculations when determining allowed radiation power for secondary users in a whitespace. More simply stated, the degradation of location probability can be made dependent on the expected signal level of the primary service.
- the algorithm provides more optimal channel and resource allocation in white spaces than the schemes currently required/implemented/proposed, such as required for the TV white spaces as indicated above.
- the geolocation database 1 can store, display and/or provide at least the following information:
- WSD which may inform the database 1 of at least one of:
- the database 1 responds with a list of available channels and the corresponding maximum EIRPs. This situation is illustrated in Figure 1, where the geolocation database 1 and the WSD 2 can be interconnected via a network such as the internet 3.
- At least one algorithm performed at the geolocation database may be summarized to include functionalities as described below:
- Another example embodiment of the invention provides at least a method to adapt the level of degradation on the location probability of the primary service according to thresholds selected by the database.
- a method in accordance with the example embodiments of the invention may comprise one or more of the following operations:
- A Mapping, at the database, the location information received from the WSD into an area of the database.
- This information in the database maybe used to visually display a location identified by the information, such as on a map.
- This area of the database including the location information has an associated value of E wme d, obtained from primary service planning.
- This value is related to the location probability without WSD interference ( Figure 2).
- the location probability is, in general, 95% for a reference value of received median field strength As the distance from the primary service receiver to the primary service transmitter decreases, the value of location probability increases, since the E wme d increases.
- the database combines the information about the WSD type with the value of Ewme & to select appropriate curves of location probability degradation as a function of the interference field strength Ei raed .
- Each type of WSD has a different curve of location probability as a function of Ejmed because of the different values of protection ratio. Examples of curves of location probability as a function of the interference field strength and the different values of E wme d are shown in Figure 3, considering two types of primary service receiver. As the value of Ejmed increases, the degradation in location probability also increases. The maximum permitted degradation may be defined by regulatory bodies, but may vary according to location specific aspects such as the quality of the primary service coverage and the density of potential primary service receiver victims.
- Figure 4 shows the curves of Ej med as a function of the E wme d for different levels of location probability degradation.
- the database 1 defines the location probability degradation according to the E wmed for the location provided by the WSD 2. As each value of E wmed is associated to a value of location probability, the database can define thresholds of degradation according to the original location probability. The idea is to vary the degradation of location probability ALP with the quality of the primary service coverage in a given area. For example, a degradation of 1% may be too severe at the edge of the coverage area, where the location probability is about 95%. However, the same degradation may not be excessive in areas where the E wmec j ensures a location probability nearer 100%.
- Figure 5 illustrates a graph which shows the situation where 3 location probability thresholds 1 , 2 and 3 are defined to trigger the variation of the acceptable degradation of location probability. The variation of the acceptable interference is always limited by a reference value of overloading threshold and a margin over the threshold to be selected at the database, as well as the maximum acceptable degradation defined by regulatory bodies.
- Figure 6 shows four examples of possible thresholds to be used by the database.
- Figure 6 (a) illustrates the example where the database uses a unique level of location probability degradation in all locations within the coverage area of a primary service transmitter.
- Figure 6 (b) illustrates the situation where one threshold is defined.
- Figure 6 (c) illustrates the composition of multiple thresholds selected according to the value of -1 ⁇ 2 rai3 ⁇ 4i
- Figure 6 (d) illustrates an example of continuous or gradual variation of ALf , from the lower degradation at the coverage edge to the maximum permitted value of degradation close to the primary service transmitter.
- Implementation improvement 1 In accordance with an example embodiment of the invention, the accuracy of the location estimate provided by the WSD to the database can be considered as an additional parameter to select the thresholds that toggle the variation of the location probability degradation. If the WSD is able to determine its location with high accuracy, the database may permit a higher degradation in the primary service, since the estimate of the interference to be caused to the primary service is more accurate. On the other hand, devices that are not capable of determining their location with high accuracy may have their maximum permitted EIRP limited by low values of location probability degradation.
- Implementation improvement 2 In accordance with an example embodiment of the invention, environmental characteristics to define the thresholds of location probability degradation are considered. If the environment is classified as urban, suburban or rural, different levels of degradation on the location probability can be used for each region. Other information that can be explored is the density of primary service receivers in a given area. In locations characterized by a low density of primary service receivers, a higher degradation in the location probability is acceptable.
- At least the above described example implementations increase the flexibility regarding the determination of a maximum permitted WSD EIRP, while ensuring the protection of the TV broadcasting service.
- D This operation defines reference geometries between the interfering WSD and the primary service receiver to calculate the maximum permitted WSD EIRP.
- the database 1 calculates the value of the maximum permitted WSD EIRP from the value of the maximum permitted interference at the primary service receiver and the total loss between the WSD transmitter and the primary service receiver at the reference geometry.
- the database 1 sends the information about the channel and maximum EIRP to the WSD 2.
- the method does not increase the complexity of the geolocation database 1 ; nor does it create or require any other entity in the network.
- the solution uses the methodology described by at least the CEPT for the calculation of location based EIRP.
- the information necessary to implement the embodiments of the invention may be present at the geolocation databases.
- the method in accordance with the example embodiments, can be performed in a way that is transparent to white space devices in a network.
- the method in accordance with the example embodiments, increases the flexibility in the selection of the maximum permitted WSD EIRP, while protecting the primary service service where it is more vulnerable, for example around the primary service coverage edge.
