Scope

The standard defines the building blocks comprising (i) network resource managers, (ii) device resource managers, and (iii) the information to be exchanged between the building blocks, for enabling coordinated network-device distributed decision making that will aid in the optimization of radio resource usage, including spectrum access control, in heterogeneous wireless access networks. The standard is limited to the architectural and functional definitions at a first stage. This standard enables mobile access service in white space frequency bands without any limitation on used radio interface (physical and media access control layers, carrier frequency, etc.) by defining additional components of the IEEE 1900.4a system. Thecorresponding protocols definition related to the information exchange will be addressed at a later stage.
