1. A computer-implemented method for configuring a node to communicate on a television white space (TVWS) spectrum of frequencies, the method comprising:

  • receiving a request for at least one operating parameter from a first node that resides at a first location in a network;

    retrieving one or more entries associated with the first location from a first database, wherein each of the one or more entries reflects a quality of service metric for a TVWS channel at the first location;

    determining the at least one operating parameter for the first node based on the one or more entries, wherein the at least one operating parameter indicates a first TVWS channel; and

    transmitting the at least one operating parameter to the first node, wherein the first node is configured to perform future communication operations over the first TVWS channel according to the at least one operating parameter.
