ABSTRACT We give a contribution about unsolved functions in Spectrum Manager and propose Sensing Manager to implement those functions. Liu Jinnan Huawei Hisi
The functions of Spectrum Manager at BS may include: Background The functions of Spectrum Manager at BS may include: Data collection and fusion [1] Channel management [1] [2] Self-coexistence and spectrum sharing [1] [2] Control of spectrum sensing [2] TPC [2] Liu Jinnan Huawei Hisi
Self-coexistence and spectrum sharing Previous Work Channel manager Channel classification Channel switch procedure (with backup channel) Self-coexistence and spectrum sharing CBP Spectrum sharing mechanism Exchange measurement report in overlap area [3] TPC Liu Jinnan Huawei Hisi

Functions of Spectrum Manager Incumbent History is a static record to reflect incumbent occupancy from historical data of one month/year of sensing results and incumbent database. Data collection Sensing manager would collect information from Geolocation, SSF, Incumbent History, Incumbent Database, Operator and Regulation. Channel information related with current WRAN system and neighbor WRAN systems may be obtained from channel manager and coexistence manager respectively. Data fusion Firstly, to fuse same signal source from different data sources, and to distinguish different signal sources from same or different data sources. And then, to store the multiple signal sources, even in one channel. Finally, to form a channel set status. Data dissemination According to the channel set status, channel manager would do channel switching ,such as operation channel switching or backup channel maintaining. While coexistence manager would share spectrum with neighbor WRAN, for example , borrowing channel from neighbor WRAN. And Power control manager would control transmit power by sensing manager’s assignment. Sensing Manager also would schedule dynamic sensing based on channel set status. Liu Jinnan Huawei Hisi
Table 160—Channel state information Value State 000 Unmeasured 001 vacant 010 Occupied 011 Occupied by TV service 100 Occupied by wireless microphones 101 Occupied by 802.22 110~111 Reserved Assumption: 1)Channel state is either vacant or occupied if it is measured. 2)Channel state is occupied by one kind of signal source. Assumption: Channel state is either vacant or occupied if it is measured. Channel state is occupied by one kind of signal source. Liu Jinnan Huawei Hisi
Data fusion How to fuse? Is it possible that the same channel is occupied by different signal sources at same time? Yes (location dependent ) Is it beneficial to distinguish interfered status from occupied status ? Yes( the interfered status is related with the occupied status, not independent ) sys2 sys1 WRAN BS Case1 : Both sys1 and sys2 work on channel K Case 2: Sys1 works on channel K, and sys2 works on channel K-1 but channel K is constrained. Case 3:Sys1 works on channel K, and sys2 works on channel K-1 but channel K is non-constrained Liu Jinnan Huawei Hisi
Proposed rules for data fusion One channel would be saved as multiple channel statuses which are related with different signal sources different signal type (signal type known) different location The channel status distinguishes “interfered” status from other channel statuses. High (such as adjacent) Media (such as Inter modulation) Others (such as non-identification signal ) Liu Jinnan Huawei Hisi
Selected by channel manager Disallowed (quasi- static) Forbidden Occupied by incumbent Allowed (dynamic) Occupied (by incumbents, current WRAN, Neighbor WRANs) Interfered Free backup channel others Selected by channel manager Liu Jinnan Huawei Hisi
Conclusion To build a channel status list with multiple signal sources in one channel To avoid confusion, different signal sources would be stored respectively instead of fusion as one signal source in one channel. To distinguish “interfered “ status To decrease measurement resource consumption, the interfered status refreshes channel status according to occupied status WRAN may take usage of interfered channel with acceptable interference Liu Jinnan Huawei Hisi

Control of Spectrum sensing To confirm channel status for double check To maintain the channel status list Dynamic sensing [4] The status of Interfered channel is dependent on the occupied status. If the signal source release the occupied status, the status of interfered channel would be changed. So we mention dynamic sensing about occupied channel instead of interfered channel plus occupied channel. Liu Jinnan Huawei Hisi
