Treasurer’s Report: WG Finance Availabilitieso As per the decision of the Piscataway meeting on providing
an indicator of the amount of financial assistance available to WGs from the SCC41 account, should they require it. Calculated at end of February 2010 according to the agreed procedure
Available to SCC41= $25,585.51 ($17,997.18) *
Available to 1900.4= $21,762.80
Available to 1900.5= $1,064.73
Available to 1900.6= $199.05* Calculated as the SCC41 CB Account Cash on Hand at end of February 2010, minus the
amounts available to .4, .5, and .6. This is done because some meeting financial reports for 2007 are not immediately available. The alternative value obtained following the correct procedure, but omitting 2007 finances, is in parentheses

• 1900.1 Overview
• Reasons for Possible Update– New defintions from IEEE 1900.5 WG– New definitions from IEEE 1900.6 WG– Other
• Next Steps
2J. Hoffmeyer: SCC41 Plenary, 8-10 March 2010, San Diego 1
Scope and Purpose of IEEE 1900.1
• Title: IEEE Standard Definitions and Concepts for Dynamic Spectrum Access: Terminology Relating to Emerging Wireless Networks, System Functionality, and Spectrum Management
• Scope: This standard provides definitions and explanations of key concepts in the fields of spectrum management, cognitive radio, policy-defined radio, adaptive radio, software-defined radio, and related technologies. The document goes beyond simple, short definitions by providing amplifying text that explains these terms in the context of the technologies that use them. The document also describes how these technologies interrelate and create new capabilities while at the same time providing mechanisms supportive of new spectrum management paradigms such as dynamic spectrum access.
• Purpose: New concepts and technologies are rapidly emerging in the fields of spectrum management, policy-defined radio, adaptive radio, software-defined radio, reconfigurable radio, and networks and related technologies. Many of the terms used do not have precise definitions or have multiple definitions. This document facilitates the development of these technologies by clarifying the terminology and how these technologies relate to each other.
• Publication Date: 26 September 2008

Policy, Machine Understandable Policies, Meta-policy, Model-Theoretic Computational Semantics, No-Harm Principle, Ontology, Policy Authority, Policy Rule, Proof Theoretic Semantics, Regulatory Policy, Semantics, System Policy.
• Some of the above may be judged to not be of global interest, i.e., not of interest beyond the purview of the 1900.5 Working Group.
• There may be other terms identified as the work progresses.
• Recommended Changes to 1900.1 Definitions• Policy
• There may be other terms that need to be changed which will be identified as the work progress.

Definitions from 1900.6 Working Group
• New Definitions• Cognitive Engine (of interest to the 1900.5 Working Group)
• Other definitions that the 1900.6 Working Group deems to be global in nature, i.e., have application in 1900.x standards beyond just the 1900.6 Standard.

Objectives, Next Steps, and Schedule
• Objectives• Ensure consistency in terminology and definitions amongst all SCC41 Working
Groups.• As 1900.5 and 1900.6 finish their standards at the Working Group level, it is timely to
start the revision of the IEEE 1900.1 Standard to ensure completeness and consistency.
• Next Steps• Revision of PAR• Identification of 1900.1 Chair, Vice Chair, and Secretary• Identification of new terms:
• From 1900.4 Working Group• From 1900.5 Working Group• From 1900.6 Working Group• Other sources
• Revise the 1900.1 Standard – suggest 12 month effort
• Schedule• Formation of 1900.1 Working Group, including leadership, at next SCC41 Meeting.• Identification of initial new terms for the revised 1900.1 by the 1900.4, 1900.5 and
1900.6 Working Groups at the next SCC41 Meeting.• Develop schedule for revision of IEEE 1900.1 Standard at the next SCC41 Meeting.• Finalize PAR submission.

BackgroundIn November 2008 FCC published “Second Report and Order in the Matter of Unlicensed Operation in the TV Broadcast Bands”This document regulating the USA market allows secondary operation in TV White Space for portable devicesCurrently, regulators in UK, Canada, and some other countries consider similar actionsThis triggered actions in IEEE 802 and IEEE SCC41 committees

ProposalWhy IEEE SCC41■ IEEE SCC41 has a lot of expertize in RRM
standardization• 1900.4 for heterogeneous environment management• 1900.4a for white space management• 1900.6 for spectrum sensing management
■ IEEE SCC41 can develop radio interface best suitable for white space environment• Currently, no limitation on which MAC and PHY to select, e.g.,
OFDMA, TDMA, CSMA etc are possible• Also, no limitation on which scenario to select, e.g., WLAN,
WMAN, WRAN etc are possible
