Hi Peter, Good comment. I will add another step to the registration service, step 3, to include an acknowledgement from the database to the master, with a result code.

Device registration with trusted Database <Delete>This use case</Delete><Insert>Registration</Insert> is preliminary to creating a radio network using <Delete>TV</Delete> white space; it is a prerequisite to <Delete>other</Delete><Insert>the</Insert> use cases <Insert>below</Insert>. The radio network is created by a master device. Before the master device can transmit in <Delete>TV</Delete> white space spectrum, it must contact a trusted database where the device can learn if any channels are available for it to use. Before the database will provide information on available <Delete>TV</Delete><Insert>radio</Insert> channels, the master device must register with the trusted database. Specific requirements for registration come from individual regulatory domains and may be different. This does not include any acknowledgement. This is something we do support in our FCC protocol. The reason being so we can accurately inform the device if the registration attempt fails. Listed below are some of the reasons, though I am sure there are more, we consider returning a failure code to the device: malformed request (e.g., required fields missing) FCC identifier not recognized or supported FCC designated no channels available location outside of regulatory domain antenna height above 30 meters HAAT above 76 meters _______________________________________________ paws mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/paws
