SCC 41 Scope SCC 41 sponsors standards projects in the area of dynamic spectrum

SCC 41 Scope SCC 41 sponsors standards projects in the area of dynamic spectrum access networks and provides coordination and information exchange between and among standards developing activities of the IEEE. “The scope of this SCC is to develop standards related to dynamic spectrum access networks. The focus is on improved use of spectrum. New techniques and methods of dynamic spectrum access require managing interference, coordination of wireless technologies and include network management and information sharing. “ – IEEE-SA Announcement, July 2007. 2/27/2021 7

Relevant Questions – What are cognitive radio systems? – What are the closely related

Relevant Questions – What are cognitive radio systems? – What are the closely related radio technologies (e. g. smart radio, reconfigurable radio, policy-defined adaptive radio and their associated control mechanisms) and their functionalities that may be a part of cognitive radio systems? – What are the key technical characteristics, requirements, performance and benefits are associated with the implementation of cognitive radio systems? – What are the potential applications of cognitive radio systems and their impact on spectrum management? – What are the operational implications (including privacy and authentication) of cognitive radio systems? – What are the cognitive capabilities that could facilitate coexistence with existing systems in the mobile service and in other radiocommunication services, such as broadcast, mobile satellite or fixed? – What sharing techniques can be used to implement cognitive radio systems to ensure coexistence with other users? – How can cognitive radio systems promote the efficient use of the radio resources? 2/27/2021 12

Relevant Standards Topics – Certification of SDRs and CRs – Regulatory enforcement of spectrum etiquettes – Opportunistic secondary use of spectrum – Interference mitigation techniques such as Spectrum Sensing, geolocation, beacons – Cooperative Spectrum sharing/pooling – Priority and tiered use by public safety and primary users – Spectrum auctions, Spectrum leasing – Dynamic spectrum allocation – Cognitive spectrum management – Policy based cognitive networks – Security and Privacy – And many more ……. 2/27/2021 13

Challenges & Opportunities Challenges • • • Regulations are pending but not yet in

Challenges & Opportunities Challenges • • • Regulations are pending but not yet in place. Many competing standards but also lots of gaps. Business cases are difficult in the beginning of an emerging technological/regulatory environment. Very complex technologies and unproven sciences. SCC 41 needs strong participation from regulatory, research and industry to create robust standards. Opportunities • • • Cognitive Radios has the potential to fundamentally change the spectrum allocation paradigm. Innovations in CR have the ability to implement Protocols and Policies beyond traditional Communications. Many enabling technologies such as SDR, Policy, are maturing and products are becoming a reality. Global interest in CR Standards are increasing and activities are escalating. First set of regulations are happening; standards work feeds regulatory rules. IEEE SCC 41 is well positioned to play a leading role in meeting the standardization requirements in next generation radio systems. 2/27/2021 14

Next Steps for SCC 41 • Create Visionary and Practical Technology Roadmap to guide

Next Steps for SCC 41 • Create Visionary and Practical Technology Roadmap to guide new projects • Identify, Nurture and Grow new standards projects with industry and commercial relevance • Continue to build support infrastructure, e. g. Regulatory • Build relationships with relevant standards and industry organizations, e. g. Computer Society 802, SDR Forum, ETSI • Recruit industry and research experts • Make SCC 41 the place to do Dy. SPAN standards work! 2/27/2021 15
