Hi Vince,
 
Okay great, I agree, examples in Sections 6.4.2, 6.5.2, 6.6.1 and 6.8.9
needs more explanation.
 
Regards,
Luzango.

Thanks for the suggestions. Please find answers inline.

Hi Vince, Don and the team,

I went through the latest draft it looks good however, I propose the
following two issues to be considered:

Section 5.4: Device Capability
I suggest that the device transmitting power should be added as an
option device capability parameter. For example, if a device
specifically inform the database about its transmitting power capability
during the avail_spectrum_req then the database should only return a
list of available spectrum with powers relevant to that specific
request. 


I think this has been suggested before.
Currently, power capabilities are captured via device certification
(e.g., "device type" in the US, combinations of "device type",
"emissions class", "technology ID" for ETSI),
so the available spectrum response must rely on those
regulatory-specific attributes, rather than a separate power-level
field.

The PAWS specification does allow additional fields to be added later,
so this might be a case of waiting for an actual use case.



Section 6.8.9: Spectrum
I suggest in here we need a straightened-out example of how spectrum
and its resolutions are specified in the FCC case. The provided example
is either not clear enough or somehow something is missing specifically
for the FCC case. Please see the following excerpt from the current
provide example:

For example, In US, FCC requires only one spectrum specification at
6MHz bandwidth; ETSI requires two (at 0.1MHz and 8MHz).",


That sounds like a good idea. I'll add an example along with more
explanation for the examples.
(See also example in Section 6.4.2)



Kind Regards,
Luzango.

Don, 

Thanks for the careful read!

Gabor, should I upload a new version with the fixes?

The new version looks good to me.
Please find feedback attached, just some minor nits.

Good, thanks Vince.

This draft incorporates the agreeable comments received during the
second wglc.

I’d like to ask people on the list to please review the set of changes
the editor implemented and let the list know if you have any comments.

If no comments received, I think the wg is done with the document and
it is ready to be forwarded to the IESG. I plan to do that next week, so
if you have
comments to the draft then please send those to the list during this
week.

Gabor, All,








I've uploaded a new version of the draft incorporating the proposed
changes:











o Propose ruleset ID name for ETSI: ETSI-EN-301-598-1.0.0-draft 





o Change TBD email address to 
[email protected] for proposing 




changes to the PAWS IANA registries 




o Moved discussion of required vCard properties to regulatory-specific
sections 





o Fixed vCard examples for organization names: Use "fn" property, but
set "kind" to "org". 





o Shorten parameter names: 




* freqHz -> hz 




* powerDbmPerBw -> dbm

Title : Protocol to Access White-Space (PAWS) Databases

Authors : Vincent Chen

Filename : draft-ietf-paws-protocol-08.txt

Pages : 104

Date : 2014-01-14



Abstract:

Portions of the radio spectrum that are allocated to licensees are

available for non-interfering use. This available spectrum is called

"White Space." Allowing secondary users access to available spectrum

"unlocks" existing spectrum to maximize its utilization and to

provide opportunities for innovation, resulting in greater overall

spectrum utilization.



One approach to manage spectrum sharing uses databases to report

spectrum availability to devices. To achieve interoperability among

multiple devices and databases, a standardized protocol must be

defined and implemented. This document defines such a protocol, the

"Protocol to Access White Space (PAWS) Databases".
