for the usage. He reiterated that P1900.5 WG didn’t take that option and he still 20

believes that it is not appropriate for WGs to pay money for the usage of the 21

mentor system. He requested if there is an update in this regard 22

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

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

Definitions from 1900.5 Working Group

• New Definitions• Coexistence Policy, Formal policy, Domain, DSA Policy Language, Formal

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.

The contributor also acknowledges and accepts that this contribution may be made public by IEEE SCC 41.

Patent Policy and Procedures: The contributor is familiar with the IEEE Patent Policy and Procedures <http:// ieee802.org/guides/bylaws/sb-bylaws.pdf>, including the statement "IEEE standards may include the known use of patent(s), including patent applications, provided the IEEE receives assurance from the patent holder or applicant with respect to patents essential for compliance with both mandatory and optional portions of the standard." Early disclosure to the Working Group of patent information that might be relevant to the standard is essential to reduce the possibility for delays in the development process and increase the likelihood that the draft publication will be approved for publication. Please notify the Chair <[email protected]> as early as possible, in written or electronic form, if patented technology (or technology under patent application) might be incorporated into a draft standard being developed within IEEE SCC 41. If you have questions, contact the IEEE Patent Committee Administrator at <[email protected]>.

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

BackgroundActions in IEEE 802■ Amendment to P802.22 PAR to enable portable operation

• IEEE Standard for Wireless Regional Area Networks Part 22: Cognitive Wireless RAN Medium Access Control (MAC) and Physical Layer (PHY) specifications: Policies and procedures for operation in the TV Bands

■ New P802.11af PAR• IEEE Standard for Information Technology - Telecommunications and

Information Exchange Between Systems - Local and Metropolitan Area Networks - Specific Requirements - Part 11: Wireless LAN Medium Access Control (MAC) and Physical Layer (PHY) Specifications - Amendment: TV White Spaces Operation

■ New P802.19.1 PAR• IEEE Standard for Information Technology – Telecommunications and

Information Exchange Between Systems – Local and Metropolitan Area Networks – Specific Requirements – Part 19: TV White Space Coexistence Methods

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

G.2. P1900.5 2

P1900.5 Status• Completed draft views of architecture to be inserted

into draft standard;• Held joint meeting with P1900.4 to present

architecture, requested liaison to help map architecture components; P1900.5 to send chair material, P1900.4 chair to assign a liaison.

• Held joint meeting with WIF Security group, their document to be published by summer will help us to determine if more needs to be done as part of our draft standard;

• Held joint meeting with WIF MLM group; Reviewed latest ontology and policies to make sure there is synergy with language requirements.

• Next meeting – telecon on March 23 at 9am.
