  1. TV White Spaces: Other Considerations Authors: Date: 2009-07-15 Rich Kennedy, Research In Motion

  2. Abstract This presentation explores some of the other issues facing ExCom in the decisions on assignment of TVWS project(s) in IEEE802. Rich Kennedy, Research In Motion

  3. Standards Issues • IEEE 802.22 has been working on this for five years • The PAR covers only the outdoor, long-range (WRAN) devices • Membership has been dwindling • ExCom could consider these factors versus the importance of the TVWS standards effort • IEEE 802.11 will almost certainly begin a TVWS SG • With the 11y mechanisms it is better prepared to cover the full range of TVWS requirements • Record of success and large active membership pool a plus • IEEE 802.16h wants a piece of this pie Rich Kennedy, Research In Motion

  4. Regulatory Issues • IEEE 802.19 SG focusing on US only • The FCC database specification is still undecided • Ofcom plan for Digital Dividend must be folded in if this is to be an international standard • A survey of other regulatory domains should be considered • FCC Part 15 use by 802.11 represents an extremely successful sharing of spectrum; TVWS is Part 15.700 • Regulatory intervention must be minimized • Enforcement resources will not be increased • Interference mitigation mechanism(s) are required • They don’t want to duplicate the problems encountered with… • Wireless microphones in the TV band Rich Kennedy, Research In Motion

  5. Market Issues • Any wireless technology that can use the TVWS will • 802.11/15/16/22 and ? • Other TVBDs • Wireless microphones • Other • Industry will not wait years for IEEE 802 • Consortium(s) in the works • Want a solution within 18 months • Will consider other SDOs, alliances, consortia • TVWS is the perfect project for IEEE to show we can provide industry with 21st century standards development • Faster and more efficiently • Prioritizing market need over technological elegance Rich Kennedy, Research In Motion

  6. Recommendations • Provide the EC with a summary of the other considerations outlined here, and any additional items that result from the discussion • The goal for development of a standard should be to enable the best social and commercial use of the band Rich Kennedy, Research In Motion
