  • Publication number: 20230422044
    Abstract: The disclosure described herein configures a base station and client devices for communication using dynamic spectrum access within a frequency spectrum that includes selecting, from a list of available channels, a set of channels as active channels. The active channels include uplink channels and downlink channels. An uplink channel and a downlink channel are assigned to a plurality of client devices based on locations the client devices, wherein at least some client devices have active channels in common. Acknowledgements from the subset of client devices having the common active channel are grouped, the acknowledgements containing medium access control (MAC) commands specific to the subset of client devices, where each message of a plurality of messages on the uplink channels is followed by a downlink acknowledgement.

  • Publication number: 20230403567
    Abstract: The disclosure described herein configures a multi-narrowband transceiver for communication within the television white space (TVWS) frequency spectrum using a log periodic filter, wherein the log periodic filter comprises a plurality of filter elements each having a filter frequency increasing periodically in a same frequency increasing factor (K). Each filter of the plurality of filter elements is configured to filter out second harmonics in a defined frequency range. The disclosure determines a TVWS channel for the communication and switches to a filter element of the plurality of filter elements corresponding to the determined TVWS channel. Data is transmitted and/or received over the TVWS channel using the filter element, thereby allowing narrowband communication over the TVWS channel.

  • Patent number: 11792653
    Abstract: The disclosure described herein configures a base station and client devices for communication using dynamic spectrum access within a frequency spectrum that includes selecting, from a list of available channels, a set of channels as active channels. The active channels include uplink channels and downlink channels, and the active channels are distributed among a plurality of base station radios of a base station. A different channel is assigned to different base station radios. At least one uplink channel and at least one downlink channel are assigned to a plurality of client devices based on locations the client devices, wherein at least some client devices have active channels in common. The client devices having the active channels in common are also grouped on shared channels and time slots assigned to the client devices in the group, thereby allowing narrowband communication over the channels by the client devices.

  • Publication number: 20230209578
    Abstract: The disclosure described herein configures a client device for communication using dynamic spectrum access within a frequency spectrum, such as television white space (TVWS), using a determined location of the client device based on location information, such as from a global positioning system. A dynamic spectrum access database of channels is accessed based on the location information. Available channels are determined for the client device from the channels based on the location information. A list of the available channels for use by the client device are transmitted to the client device, thereby allowing narrowband communication over the channels.
