Abstract:
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. A hardware prototype, which is capable of querying the TVWS database and operating in the TV band without causing harmful interference to the TV receivers in UHF TV bands, is developed. The source code of our implementation has been released under the GNU general public license version 2.0.
