IEEE Draft Standard for Spectrum Sensing Interfaces and Data Structures for Dynamic Spectrum Access and other Advanced Radio Communication Systems

This standard defines the interfaces and data structures required to exchange sensing related information in order to increase interoperability between sensors and their clients developed by different manufacturers. The logical interface and supporting data structures are defined abstractly without constraining the sensing technology, client design, or data link between sensor and client. The standard defines the entities involved and parameters exchanged in this process. It further elaborates on the service access points, service primitives, as well as generic procedures used to realize this information exchange.
