  2. Abstract • Highlight a limitation in the current 802.11af draft • Extensive existing literature shows that this may have significant impact on eventual system performance • A simple approach to mitigate this issue is proposed Alex Reznik (InterDigital)

  3. Problem Statement • TVWS sensing may be required to satisfy regulatory requirement • Distributed sensing is widely recognized and desirable for cognitive spectrum sensing • In the case of enabler/dependent(s) configuration, sensing fusion should occur at the enabling node and drive enabling beacons • Current proposal (802.11af/D0.02) calls for 1-bit feedback from dependents to the enabler • Re-use signaling introduces as part of 802.11h amendment • Unfortunately, 1-bit signaling is widely known to be insufficient • Limits the detection performance of the system • May significantly impact our ability to satisfy (as yet unclear) regulatory requirements Alex Reznik (InterDigital)

  4. Distributed Sensing • Benefits of soft information in distributed sensing well known • Large body of work, well studied • Make intuitive sense • Examples of results here, longer list of references at the end • Current proposal limits us to 1-bit feedback • Main reason is the ability to re-use existing signaling • This leaves us at risk against future regulatory requirements • Precisely what this group is trying to avoid • It is not necessary • We can do much better while still re-using mechanisms already defined in 802.11 Source: Visotsky/Kuffner/ Peterson Source: Unnikrishnan/Veeravalli Alex Reznik (InterDigital)

  5. Proposal • Add a new sensing measurement with flexible content • Provide sensing measurement report with a container for measurement results. • Container may be used for "soft" results for distributed sensing or for descriptive hard decision results. • Nature of sensing measurement • Not defined in the specification. • Could be implementation dependent • Designed to address specific regulatory needs • Operation of the enabler • The enabler would be required to do “information fusion” • How it is to do so is open to implementation • If result of fusion is that a channel is occupied, the enabling beacon for the channel is modified accordingly.
