  2. Abstract CE, CM, and CDIS may be implemented by different parties. This presentation presents how the system looks from a TVBD/CE perspective and on the other hand from a CM perspective. We hope this presentation to be helpful in understanding the design behind our proposal (19-10/156). Päivi Ruuska, Nokia

  3. November 2010 Acronyms used in this presentation • CDIS – Coexistence discovery and information server • CE – Coexistence enabler • CM – Coexistence manager • CMIS – Coexistence management and information system • TVBD – TV band device • TVWS DB – TV white space database Päivi Ruuska, Nokia

  4. Outline • What does a CE do? • How does it get connected to a coexistence management and information system (CMIS)? • How does it use the services provided by the CMIS? • What does a CM do? • How does it get connected with a CDIS? • How does it serve TVBDs? • How does it communicate with peer CMs? Päivi Ruuska, Nokia

  5. CE operation • The next slides present the TVBD/CE operation when it decides to register to CMIS and subscribe to a coexistence service, and while it is using the services. • CE is associated to a TVBD and responsible of providing coexistence information to and from TVBD and coexistence management to TVBD. In this presentation the interface between TVBD and CE is not considered. • The CE doesn’t have to be collocated with a TVBD but may be also e.g. implemented as a part of a server controlling operations of a TVBD Päivi Ruuska, Nokia

  6. CE – Before registration • A TVBD may be operating before registering to a CMIS, and subscribing coexistence services. • TVBD selects own operating parameters based on TVWS DB information on available channels and possibly channel measurements. • A TVBD may register to a CMIS, and subscribe services before starting operation. • TVBD gets operating parameters from CMIS, or information it can use to select parameters. • A TVBD may access to some information provided by a CMIS before registration. • Basic regulatory environment in area. • Possibly some information to decide whether to start operating in TVWS at all, and whether to register. Päivi Ruuska, Nokia

  7. CE - Registration decision • TVBD decides to register to CMIS if it has a need for coexistence services. • May, as an example, need assistance in selecting operating parameters. • TVBD may also register automatically when switched (e.g. if TVBD does not support channels selection algorithms itself). • To register the CE sends a Register_req • A registered TVBD is able to subscribe to coexistence information or management services. • A TVBD which is only registered to CMIS does not get any coexistence support from CMIS. • A registered TVBD may provide basic TVBD information (geo-location, capabilities) to the CMIS in TVBD_Information_rsp. Alternatively all the information is provided only upon service subscription. More on these options in the CM slides. Päivi Ruuska, Nokia

  8. CE - Service subscription decision(in registered state) • A registered TVBD decides to subscribe to a service when it needs assistance in selecting operating parameters. • Which service to subscribe to, depends on the TVBD capabilities, and possibly on the spectrum environment. • Coexistence management service • TVBD without advanced channel/resource selection capabilities • Congested environment. • Coexistence information service • TVBD with advanced channel/resource selection capabilities • To subscribe to a service CE sends a Service_subsribe_req Päivi Ruuska, Nokia

  9. CE – TVBD information provision(in subscribed state) (cont.) • A TVBD which is subscribed to a service shall provide TVBD information to the CMIS. • Automatically – when information changes, CE sends a TVBD_Information_rsp • Upon request from CMIS, CE sends a TVBD_Information_rsp • May receive a message filtering configuration request from the CMIS – the CE sends TVBD_Info_Update_Config_rsp and configures TVBD_information_rsp message sending rules. Päivi Ruuska, Nokia

  10. CE – TVBD information provision (in subscribed state) (cont.) • TVBD Information a CE provides to the CMIS if the TVBD is subscribed to information or management service • Geo-location, capabilities • Coexistence value – The CE calculates CV from the number of nodes in the TVBD network, and possibly TVBD flexibility to use resources and coexist with other systems. • TVBD Information a CE provides to the CMIS if the TVBD is subscribed to coexistence information service • Resource use – operating parameters (e.g. frequency, bandwidth, utilization, power) • Satisfaction value – indication if the TVBD is planning to change operating parameters. Päivi Ruuska, Nokia

  11. CE –TVBD measurements provision(in subscribed state) • A TVBD which is subscribed to a service should provide TVBD measurements to the CMIS. • Automatically – when changed/new measurement information available, CE sends a TVBD_measurement_rsp • Upon request from CMIS, CE sends a TVBD_measurement_rsp which includes stored measurement information. • CMIS may configure message filtering, or give guidance to the measurements. - Upon receiving a TVBD_Measurement_Config _req, the CE responds with a TVBD_Measurement_Config_rsp and depending on parameters in request configures the automatic measurement information sending rules or tries to configure measurement according the received guidance. Päivi Ruuska, Nokia

  12. CE – Obeying management(in management subscribed state) • A TVBD subscribed to the management service shall obey the resource allocations received from CMIS. • Upon receiving a TVBD_coexistence_management_rsp from the CMIS, the CE shall configure the TVBD operating parameters according to the given resource allocation. • The CE may request new resource allocation from the CMIS, by sending a TVBD_coexistence_management_req whichincludes the resource need. • The CE shall wait at least TimeX after receiving resource allocation, before it may send new request. Päivi Ruuska, Nokia

  13. CE – Information service use (in information subscribed state) • A TVBD subscribed to the information service shall provide own operating parameters to the CMIS. • CE sends updates on changed TVBD operating parameters in TVBD_Information_rsp. • The CE receives information on spectrum environment changes from the CMIS in a TVBD_Coexistence_information_rsp • CE may use the information to when selecting own operating parameters. • The CE may request information of spectrum environment from the CMIS with a TVBD_Coexistence_information_req Päivi Ruuska, Nokia

  14. What if I want to implement a CM, not a CE? • In the next few slides we describe what it takes from a CM to be part of a CMIS • How does a CM get into the CMIS? • How does it process messages from TVBDs? • How does it serve TVBDs? • How does it use CDIS for neighbor discovery? • How does it serve peer CMs? Päivi Ruuska, Nokia

  15. Assumed CM design • The CM is assumed to have the following service processes • Basic/Support service process • TVBD service process • Neighbor management process • In the following slides it is assumed that the processes issue requests to each other and provide relevant information Päivi Ruuska, Nokia

  16. Joining a CMIS • The first thing a CM needs to do in order to become a part of a CMIS is to register to a CDIS • With the registration the CM becomes discoverable to other CMs • The CM issues a registration request message to a CDIS and waits for a response from the CDIS • Ask the CDIS to serve the CM with neighbor discovery service • Once the CM has successfully registered to a CDIS, it starts providing the Basic/Support service to TVBDs Päivi Ruuska, Nokia

  17. Basic/Support service to TVBDs • Provide basic information to any TVBDs on request and processes registration and service subscription requests from them • Provide information about regulatory environment upon receiving a request message • If needed, there could be similar information requests in the spec for unregistered TVBD/CEs • Process registration request message from a TVBD and check if you can serve the TVBD • Issue a response message to the TVBD indicating whether the registration succeeded • Process service subscription message from a TVBD and check if you can provide the service as requested • The TVBD needs to be at least registered • Issue a response message to the TVBD indicating whether the subscription succeeded Päivi Ruuska, Nokia

  18. Serving a registered TVBD • Currently it is assumed in the proposal that no information is provided by the TVBD before service subscription • Note • Alternatively, a CM could obtain basic TVBD information from the TVBD already before service subscription • These decisions have an impact on the neighbor discovery service use as discussed in the following slide Päivi Ruuska, Nokia

  19. Subscribing services to a TVBD • The CM processes a service subscription request and the default response is to accept the request from a registered TVBD • Before accepting the request the CM should have determined neighbors for the TVBD • More on this in the following few slides Päivi Ruuska, Nokia

  20. Neighbor discovery • The CM uses the CDIS to which it has registered to find out potential neighbors of a TVBD it serves • Before the CM can issue a neighbor discovery request message to the CDIS, it needs to have received basic information of the TVBD from the TVBD • Currently it is assumed that the information is obtained from the TVBD only upon the TVBD has subscribed to a service • Alternatively the information could be obtained before service subscription from a registered TVBD • All this is very much related to the overall design of the procedures and what is possible at what time • Now the CM invokes neighbor management process for a selected set of candidate neighbors (some or all the potential neighbors) • More on that in the next slides Päivi Ruuska, Nokia

  21. Neighbor management • The CM has a process that takes care of neighbor management service • Neighbor inquiry • Neighbor set • Information and command exchange • Neighbor remove • The CM runs the neighbor inquiry function with the candidate neighbors to find out whether the two TVBDs are really neighbors or something else • The CM proceeds to the neighbor set handshake to establish neighbor or one-sided interferer relationship • Once the CM has completed the neighbor set on all the neighbors / one-sided interferers, the CM is ready to really start providing coexistence information or coexistence management service • Should this be the time to provide the response to the service subscription request? • Or is there some other notification to the TVBD that the services are available? Päivi Ruuska, Nokia

  22. Neighbor management (cont.) • The CM uses the information and command exchange function with all the TVBD pairs for which it has established a neighbor or one-sided interferer relationship. In other words, neighborhood / interferer relationship obligates a CM to provide information or management commands. • In the case of neighbors the CM shall issue updates to the other CM on any changes in TVBD parameter values (e.g. capabilities, service subscription status, spectrum environment report) • Updates issued also on changes in operating parameters and satisfaction value if the CM’s own TVBD is subscribed only to the coexistence information service • New operating parameters shall be issued to the peer CM if the peer CM’s TVBD is subscribed to the coexistence management service • The CM may also request information from the peer CM • Issue internal requests to other processes as required to forward the information to the TVBD or for further internal processing • Neighbor remove handshake is used to remove neighbor or one-sided interferer relationship • The CM can either initiate the function or be requested to tear down the relationship Päivi Ruuska, Nokia

  23. Providing coexistence information service to a TVBD • Processing autonomous TVBD information updates from the TVBD • Issue an internal request to the neighbor management process to forward the information to the peer CMs as applicable and needed • Configuring rules for autonomous information reports • Issuing TVBD information requests to the TVBD • Processing autonomous TVBD measurement reports from the TVBD • Configuring rules for autonomous measurement reports • Configuring measurements Päivi Ruuska, Nokia

  24. Providing coexistence management service to a TVBD • Processing management requests • Initiate the resource allocation process • Reply with a allocation response to the requesting TVBD • Issue an internal request to the neighbor management process to forward the information to the peer CMs as applicable and needed • Upon receiving an internal request on a management decision made by a peer CM, issue a management response to one’s own TVBD Päivi Ruuska, Nokia

  25. Summary • In this presentation we went through what’s inside of a CE and a CM • The intention was to give some insight to the design behind our proposal (19-10/156) Päivi Ruuska, Nokia
