1. A method comprising:
- receiving a plurality of input signals at a multiplexer of a white space device;
generating, via the multiplexer, a multiplexed output signal that includes at least two of the plurality of input signals;
sensing whether a white space frequency is available for unlicensed use; and
communicating the multiplexed output signal over the white space frequency via a transmitter of the white space device when the white space frequency is available for unlicensed use.

Abstract
In one example, a method includes receiving a plurality of input signals at a multiplexer of a white space device, and generating, via the multiplexer, a multiplexed output signal that includes at least two of the plurality of input signals. The method also includes sensing whether a white space frequency is available for unlicensed use, and communicating the multiplexed output signal over the white space frequency via a transmitter of the white space device when the white space frequency is available for unlicensed use.
