Open Source PAWS and UHF TV White Space Database Implementation for India
TV white space (TVWS) geolocation database is being used for the protection of the terrestrial TV broadcast receivers, and the coexistence of secondary devices. To the best of our knowledge, though TV White Space calculations are available, an active online database does not exist for India. In this paper, the development of the first TVWS database for India is detailed and is released for public access. A standardized protocol to access the TVWS database on a readily available hardware platform is implemented.
