CHANNEL AVAILABILITY FOR WHITE-SPACE DEVICES, ASSOCIATED APPARATUS AND METHODS
First Claim
1. An apparatus comprising a processor and memory, the memory including computer program code, wherein the memory and computer program code are configured to, with the processor, cause the apparatus to:
- receive geographic location signaling associated with the particular determined geographical location of one or more white-space devices;
receive uncertainty indication signaling for the uncertainty associated with the particular determined geographic location of the one or more white-space devices; and
determine the one or more channels available for use by the respective one or more white-space devices in the particular determined geographical location by using the geographic location signaling and uncertainty indication signaling.
