    摘要: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques and apparatus for operating in a television white space (TVWS) network. One example method generally includes receiving, at an apparatus, a message with a field indicating a current version of an unused frequency spectrum map (e.g., a white space map (WSM)), the unused frequency spectrum map indicating channels usable for wireless communications; determining whether the current version of the unused frequency spectrum map is different than a previous version of the unused frequency spectrum map; and using a channel for wireless communications based on the determination. Another example method generally includes accessing a database of available channels for a current location of an apparatus via a neighboring portable or fixed enabling apparatus and enabling one or more portable dependent apparatuses for the wireless communications via one or more of the available channels.

    摘要: An information providing method is performable in a wireless network having a plurality of group owner devices respectively controlling a plurality of groups of devices. The information providing method includes periodically transmitting, by a first group owner device that controls a first group of devices, a first packet that includes device descriptors of client devices associated with the first group owner device. The information providing method further includes receiving, by a second group owner device that controls a second group of devices and that is adjacently located with respect to the first group owner device, the first packet transmitted by the first group owner device. The information providing method also includes periodically transmitting, by the second group owner device, a second packet that includes the device descriptors of the client devices associated with the first group owner device.

    摘要: A method to support distributed beacon transmission in a directional communication network is provided. The method may comprise receiving, by a second apparatus, a first reference signal from a first apparatus, wherein the first reference signal comprises network shared information associated with a first network and specific information associated with the first apparatus, generating a second reference signal by updating the network shared information in the first reference signal to include specific information associated with second apparatus, and transmitting the second reference signal at a defined time, wherein the defined time is selected to minimize any interference associated with a subsequent transmission of the first reference signal by the first apparatus.
