Analyzing Spectrum Management Policy for Utilizing TV White Space
نویسندگان
چکیده
With the digital TV transition, TV white space issue stands out. While economic value of TV white space is estimated to be about 200~320 million pounds, there are several problems such as spectrum interference, publicity and business model issues. To analyze current spectrum management policy in utilizing TV white space in Korea, this research conducted FGI based on PEST frameworks. As a result, for successfully utilizing TV white space, Korea spectrum management policy should be evolved to maximize social welfare by considering adopting spectrum sharing and incentive system. This research has its limitation that FGI was conducted to a small group of people since TV white space is a touchy issue in Korea. Nevertheless, this study is expected to suggest political implications not only to Korea but also to other countries which is about to utilize TV white space in the future. Keywords—Spectrum Management, TV White Space (TVWS), Spectrum Policy Framework, White Space Management, Digital TV Transition

Currently, use of geo-location databases is the preferred method for detecting TV white spaces by white space devices in the US. The approach protects TV transmitters and receivers from interference sufficiently by keeping a record of the TV transmitters’ information, and relying on propagation models to determine the protection area of the TV transmitters. Thus accurate radio propagation by th...

Latest regulations on TV white space communications and trend toward spectrum access through geolocation databases relax the regulatory constraints on cognitive radios. Radio environment map (REM) is a kind of improved geolocation database and an emerging topic with the latest regulations on TV white space communications. It constructs a comprehensive temperature map of the cognitive radio netw...
متن کاملTowards Dynamic Real-Time Geo-location Databases for TV White Spaces
Recent FCC regulations on TV white spaces allow geo-location databases to be the sole source of spectrum information for White Space Devices (WSDs). Geo-location databases protect TV band incumbents by keeping track of TV transmitters and their protected service areas based on their location, transmission parameters and sophisticated propagation models. In this article, we argue that keeping tr...
