A new standard that allows users of the IEEE 802 set of wireless standards from the IEEE Standards Association to effectively use the TV white spaces is available. IEEE 802.19.1 “is intended to help achieve fair and efficient spectrum sharing,” said the IEEE Standards Association Wednesday in a news release (http://bit.ly/1yi0Qvv). The standard is intended to specify a coexistence discovery and information server, specify a coexistence manager, and “define common coexistence architecture and protocols,” it said.
