Vince,

I suggest to modify 4.4.1 AVAIL_SPECTRUM_REQ as follows to add slave location.

<original>
location: The GeoLocation (Section 5.1) for _the Master Device_ is
REQUIRED. The location SHOULD be the current location of the
Device, but more precisely, the location of the radiation center
of the Device's antenna. When the request is made by the Master
Device on behalf of a Slave Device, the location is that of the
_Master Device_. Depending on the regulatory domain, the location
MAY be an anticipated position of the Device to support mobile
devices. If the location specifies a region, rather than a point,
the Database MAY return an error with the UNIMPLEMENTED (Table 1)
code, if it does not support query by region.

And I suggest to add the following parameter.

<new parameter>
masterDeviceLocation: Depending on regulatory rules, when the request is
made by the Master Device on behalf of a Slave Device, the Master
Device MAY be required to provide its own location.

Thanks.

    Thanks Vince,
    In addition, It's my current understanding that Ofcom requires
    slave devices to report "Channel Usage". In PAWS it would be
    accomplished via master device sending a SPECTRUM_USE_NOTIFY on
    behalf of the slave device. We might need to add slave device
    location to that message, or indicate that the location parameter
    contains the slave device's location whenever
    etsiEnDeviceCategory is equal to "slave". Does that make sense?

    "Channel Usage" is only required for slaves operating above 0 dBm
    EIRP / 8 MHz.

    However all masters are required to report "data parameters" (e.g.
    device identifier, emission class, location [optionally]) for
    every connected slave.


Yes, both of these are already supported in the draft.
As Don suggested the optional slave location will be added.

Thanks.


    Ray
