Abstract

When developing a TV White Space (TVWS) system with the available TV spectrum after digital switchover, the smooth introduction of new technologies and components has to be supported because the requirements of users change frequently in a new system. We need to provide a modular, extensible and easy to implement framework rather than building highly integrated systems. According to environment, rules, polices and users’ requirements, advanced intelligent management functionalities that can guarantee the proper configuration of devices in TVWS networks and proper load balance, have to be developed. According to different requests from users, different algorithms and components have to be used to meet the needs of the users. How, when and which algorithms and components should be combined in order to meet the requests from the users become essential problems. Based on Service Oriented Architecture, all things in the proposed system including algorithms and components can be defined as services. This paper presents a framework of rule-based dynamic TVWS services composition that can meet the above needs and combine different TVWS services to fulfil users’ requirements dynamically.
