All,
I've uploaded a new version of the PAWS protocol draft to address
Extensibility, discussed at the last F2F.
Summary of changes:
- Added a description of message sequences to support multiple rule
sets and multiple jurisdictions Section 3.1.
- Modified DeviceDescriptor (Section 5.2) to add rulesetIds
parameter
- Modified RulesetInfo (Section 5.6), AvailableSpectrumResponse
(Section 4.4.2) to add rulesetId parameter.
- Add Extensibility (Section 8) section.
- Filled in IANA (Section 9) section.
- Removed blank Example Messages section
Please note that the initial entries in Section 9 are FCC-specific, simply
because its rules have been finalized and we have a complete list of
required parameters. It is not intended to restrict the protocol to FCC.
Comments welcomed. Thanks.
