2. doc.: IEEE 802.19-11/0032r0 Submission March 2011 Gabor Bajko, NokiaSlide 2 Proposal to work on a WS database access protocol in IETF A new BOF (pre-WG effort) will take place at the IETF meeting in Prague, March 28-31 Intention is to form a WG to develop a query protocol for WS database access (PAWS) Why IETF? –History of upper layer protocol development –PHY/MAC agnostic –An IETF standard for the DB access would be applicable to global variants of TVWS technology

3. doc.: IEEE 802.19-11/0032r0 Submission PAWS BOF description and mailing list Initial description of PAWS BOF: https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/paws https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/paws –A mailing list has been created, subscription details at the above link –Currently +150 members Most discussions and decisions take place on the mailing list Jabber room (http://www.ietf.org/jabber/index.html) available at F2F meetings for remote participantshttp://www.ietf.org/jabber/index.html March 2011 Gabor Bajko, NokiaSlide 3

5. doc.: IEEE 802.19-11/0032r0 Submission The protocol would potentially support Database discovery based on WSD current location Client provisioning Location Delivery Required security Access protocol itself Data to be requested and provided The protocol –Would not be country specific –Would be PHY/MAC independent March 2011 Gabor Bajko, NokiaSlide 5

6. doc.: IEEE 802.19-11/0032r0 Submission Co-operation with IEEE Getting requirements from the IEEE TGs would be of great help Establish an official liason relationship Consider allowing access of PAWS members to the relevant IEEE draft documents (it has been done in the past, eg 802.11u) –An approved (75% passed) draft spec to be attached to a liason letter March 2011 Gabor Bajko, NokiaSlide 6
