Portions of the radio spectrum that are allocated to a licensed,
primary user but are unused or unoccupied at specific locations and
times are defined as "white space". The concept of allowing
secondary transmissions (licensed or unlicensed) in white space is a
technique to "unlock" existing spectrum for new use. An obvious
requirement is that these secondary transmissions do not interfere
with the primary use of the spectrum. One approach to using the
white space spectrum at a given time and location is to verify with a
database available channels.
This document describes the concept of TV White Spaces. It also
describes the problems that need to be addressed for enabling the use
of the primary user owned white space spectrum for secondary users,
without causing interference, by querying a database which knows the
channel availability at any given location and time. A number of
possible use cases of this spectrum and derived requirements are also
described.
