Hi Gabor,
Apologize for the late "entry" but we would like to suggest a couple of
minor but important clarifications to current requirement doc to
minimize potential confusions:
* The final spec should be general enough to support all spectrum.
Not just TV spectrum. In our discussions with several PAWS members,
they all agree with this point but they point to the requirement doc
as the limiting factor to generalize the spec. For example in the
Normative Requirements section 6.1 D7 " *The Data Model MUST
support specifying a list of availablechannels. The Data Model MUST
support specification of thisinformation by channel numbers and...."*
* Both FCC and Ofcom do not require "authentication of device". While
the FCC requires the DB to check for "authorized" FCCID, device
authentication is not required. Current requirement doc requires
the database to "authenticate" the master device as stated in the
Normative Requirements section 6.1 P.4 " *The protocol MUST provide
the ability for the database toauthenticate the master device.". *To
be consistent with FCC and Ofcom spec, we believe the spec should
allow for the implementation of strong authentication as an option.
Appreciate your thoughts on what's the best process to consider these
refinements. If there's consensus, Google is more than happy to take on
the work of providing specific text changes.
Thanks
Eric
