Abstract:
Disclosed according to one embodiment of the present invention is a method whereby a management device, which enables coexistence of television white space (TVWS) devices in a TVWS, sends a server a request for the selection of a master management device, the method comprising the steps of: determining whether a trigger condition for the process of selecting the master management device is satisfied; judging the management device as a candidate slave management device, and the other management devices as candidate master management devices, provided that the trigger condition is satisfied; and initiating the process for selecting the master management device, wherein the trigger condition may be based on the load balance parameter or geographical coverage parameter of the management device.
Abstract:
Provided is a method for registering TVWS devices for coexistence of television white space (TVWS) devices in a television white space (TVWS), the method performed a server and comprising receiving a registration request message for registration or update registration of at least one TVWS device from at least one management device; performing the registration or update registration of at least one TVWS device; and in response to the registration request message, transmitting a registration response message to the at least one management device, wherein the registration response message includes at least one of an identifier field of an interface device connected to the at least one TVWS device, a status field indicating a result of the registration or the update registration, and a reason field indicating a reason why the registration or the update registration is failed if the registration or the update registration is failed.
Abstract:
A method for checking availability of one of Television White Space (TVWS) devices by a management device for managing the TVWS devices to co-exist in a TVWS according to one embodiment of the present invention can comprise the following steps: receiving a registration request message for registering the TVWS device or updating the registration of the TVWS device from the TVWS device; registering the TVWS device or updating the registration of the TVWS device; transmitting a check request message for checking the availability of the TVWS device to the TVWS device after registering the TVWS device or updating the registration of the TVWS device, the check request message including a time parameter; and determining the availability of the TVWS device on the basis of the time parameter.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a scheduling method in a wireless personal area network (WPAN) system and a device therefor. Specifically, a method for allocating a guaranteed time slot (GTS) in a WPNA system comprises the steps of: receiving a GTS request command for requesting periodic GTS allocation from a device; and transmitting a beacon frame which includes periodic GTS allocation information to the device, wherein a GTS allocation interval is determined by GTS interval information included in the GTS request command, and an allocated periodic GTS expires if data or an acknowledgement (ACK) frame is not transmitted from the device within a section determined by the GTS allocation interval.
