Page 2WWRF#20 · Klaus Moessner · · · Sig1 Panel · WWRF - Ottawa CR MAKING SENSE ON THE SLOPE OF ENLIGHTENMENT there was a lot of overselling -enables spectrum commons -increases spectrum efficiency by orders of magnitude -will be main technology in B3G CR can do a lot but not everything makes (immediate) sense -limiting the scope: use where required, not where possible

Page 6WWRF#20 · Klaus Moessner · · · Sig1 Panel · WWRF - Ottawa CR Making Sense on the slope of enlightenment CRs are only as good as the information they use for their decision making -definition of information scope -loads of sensing technologies but no quality indicators -interoperability between (spectrum sensors) Making Sense: -Secondary spectrum usage will come (already reality – 5GHz band) -Regulation will allow more dynamic allocation regimes -Reconfigurable radios will operate in different frequency ranges/bands and would have to apply different sensing architectures (band and space dependent sensing)
Page 7WWRF#20 · Klaus Moessner · · · Sig1 Panel · WWRF - Ottawa CR Making Sense on the slope of enlightenment Making Sense: -Current sensing standards do concentrate on limited application scenarios/restricted use cases (e.g …) -Sensing issues are complex and there is no standard to capture all issues (service -Need for generic guidelines of how to sense in different use cases and situations
