Inter-Network Spectrum Sharing in TVWS Wendong Hu, STMicroelectronics
Overview of On-demand Spectrum Contention Protocol • Message-based, demand-driven, distributed spectrum sharing protocol • TVBD cells exchange contention messages, containing random contention numbers, to determine their rights of media access. • Designed for fair, low-overhead, QoS-aware spectrum sharing among the coexisting network cells. • Categorized into Coarse-grain (channel-based) and Fine-grain (frame-based) sharing • The basic principle is adopted in IEEE 802.22 draft standard [1] Wendong Hu, STMicroelectronics
Example of Channel-based ODSC Wendong Hu, STMicroelectronics
Example of Frame-based ODSC Provide a better QoS as compared to the channel-based approach Wendong Hu, STMicroelectronics
Message Flow of ODSC Protocol Wendong Hu, STMicroelectronics
Spectrum Contention Algorithm • Spectrum Contention Number Generation SCN = RANDOM (0, 2^16 ). Wendong Hu, STMicroelectronics
Properties of ODSC Protocol • Require a standardized protocol for all (both heterogeneous and homogeneous) coexisting networks • Require a reliable and efficient inter-network communication mechanism for coexistence. • Require synchronized frame / superframe structure when finer grain spectrum sharing is employed.

Fairness and Convergence Time [2] Wendong Hu, STMicroelectronics
Conclusion • ODSC Protocol • enable efficient, scalable, and fair inter-network spectrum sharing • Efficient • Simple contention process (random number exchange) • Contentions are in parallel with data transmissions • Avoid collisions and the hidden node problem • Fair • Random number comparisons • On-demand iterative contention process • Scalable • Distributed decision making, no central arbiter needed. • Stable • Cooperation among networks to achieve the goals of fairness and efficiency of spectrum sharing Wendong Hu, STMicroelectronics
