The material in this document is subject to change in form and content after further study. The contributor(s) reserve(s) the right to add, amend or withdraw material contained herein.
Release: The contributor grants a free, irrevocable license to the IEEE to incorporate material contained in this contribution, and any modifications thereof, in the creation of an IEEE Standards publication; to copyright in the IEEE’s name any IEEE Standards publication even though it may include portions of this contribution; and at the IEEE’s sole discretion to permit others to reproduce in whole or in part the resulting IEEE Standards publication. The contributor also acknowledges and accepts that this contribution may be made public by IEEE
Patent Policy and Procedures: The contributor is familiar with the IEEE 802 Patent Policy and Procedures 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
Carl R. Stevenson 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 the IEEE Working Group. If you have questions, contact the IEEE Patent Committee Administrator at

Comment 106 by Carlos Cordeiro
“Currently, the spec is only defined for TDD (e.g., frame, control messages, etc.). There are no details or support for FDD.”

Comment 112 by Carlos Cordeiro
I believe that WG is not assuming that will be the only system operating in the TV white spaces. If that is the case, consider a scenario where we have a number of networks and non networks operating in vicinity. In addition, assume that some (or all) of the networks operate using DFH.
In this scenario, isn't true to say that the DFH-enabled networks may constantly step onto the other non wireless systems operating in the same band? After all, it is unlikely that these systems will coordinate. To make matters worse, would it not be possible that the non systems using the same band can also employ something similar to DFH and harm operations in a similar way?
Please note that the problem may be particularly worse here than in other existing unlicensed bands due to the much higher transmit powers of devices.

Comment 236 by Wendong Hu
How to synchronize "dynamically allocated" fine sensing periods of overlapping WRANs? Imagine some WRANs need fine sensing but others don't. How can fine sensing be effective conducted for those WRANs that need it when others who don't need it are transmitting data?

Comment 523 by Stephen Kuffner
If overlapping TDD networks have different T/R splits, then one network's CPE can be transmitting while his neighbor (belonging to the other network) is listening. Can overlapping networks really have different T/R splits?
