Re: [WISPA] TV whitespaces - Whats the next step

  OK so in my area there is a three channel space of 26,27 and, 28 
available.  I guess my goal is to camp out on 27, knowing this how to I 
stake the claim and start working toward deployment?  I know it's 
oversimplified but that's where I have to start.

Unless I'm misreading the rules, White Space for WISPs is under Part 
15, unlicensed, and thus gets no protection.  Licensed (protected) 
wireless mics operate under a different rule (e.g., broadcast 
auxiliary service) which entitles them to protection.  So there is no 
claim-staking by WISPs; we will have to live together the way we do 
on 5.8 and the other unlicensed bands.

Well isn't this what whitespaces is supposed to prevent? Large amounts 
of exclusive spectrum already exists and is owned by monopolies. Now I 
think that licensed lite would be good. The FCC licensing system can 
facilitate coordination among providers. Maybe we can get that in 
whitespace ro 3.0? :)

 We probably had a good shot at it through all the lobbying efforts we
 did but the FCC Committee had people against the idea that building
 broadband service should entitle you to an exclusive license for your
 channel space in your coverage area.

Hmmm. So if the big money comes in and just buys up a bunch of licenses 
then what? You have to remember that the rules are a double edged sword. 
Anything that might help us protect against competition, can also be 
used by others to lock us out. Not a level playing field.

John,

I personally support your work on Spectrum Homesteading and we hope to
develop it further.  Unfortunately, the FCC committee was split and thus, it
was the advice of the FCC Chairman that we could not support it at this time
until the proposal matures further or the education of the FCC Committee
changes the balance of ayes and nays.  I definitely don't think it is a dead
issue.  We need to discuss it more and help it mature, it is definitely
worthwhile to pursue.

Thanks,

What do you envision as a fair homesteading rule(s)? How do those
rules deal with squatters, or people who do 'just enough' to keep
others out? I am not completely against 'homesteading' but i am
against 'squatting' and 'marginal acceptableness'. Do you have a
document or such of your ideas on this?

  you're going to have to find several channels together.
 
  With UBNT gear, 6 MHz only yields 15 megabits.  MT's N might
 double that.

  Jeromie,

A quick check of WISPA's billing survey did not turn up your name as a WISPA 
Member. If that is wrong and you are a Member then I warmly invite you to join 
the FCC Committee so you can provide your input and ideas regarding spectrum 
homesteading. If you are not a WISPA Member then I'm sorry but it would be 
improper to divulge FCC Committee Member discussions or documents to you. Feel 
free to give me a call or drop me an email offlist to discuss your options 
further.

Best Regards,

Jack Unger
Chair - WISPA FCC Committee

 What do you envision as a fair homesteading rule(s)? How do those
 rules deal with squatters, or people who do 'just enough' to keep
 others out? I am not completely against 'homesteading' but i am
 against 'squatting' and 'marginal acceptableness'. Do you have a
 document or such of your ideas on this?

 John,

 I personally support your work on Spectrum Homesteading and we hope to
 develop it further.  Unfortunately, the FCC committee was split and thus, it
 was the advice of the FCC Chairman that we could not support it at this time
 until the proposal matures further or the education of the FCC Committee
 changes the balance of ayes and nays.  I definitely don't think it is a dead
 issue.  We need to discuss it more and help it mature, it is definitely
 worthwhile to pursue.

 Thanks,
 Rick

 There is no staking your claim. I pushed for that as part of a
 spectrum homesteading initiative which WISPA will not support...sadly.
 We probably had a good shot at it through all the lobbying efforts we
 did but the FCC Committee had people against the idea that building
 broadband service should entitle you to an exclusive license for your
 channel space in your coverage area. Opportunity lost...

   OK so in my area there is a three channel space of 26,27 and, 28

 According to that page, only 2, 5, and 6 are available for me.
 Assuming their data is correct, TVWS are almost not even worth my
 time.
 6 channels are reserved for wireless mics.

 That was where my question was going. 12mhz could let you use a
 10mhz
 channel. Yes we are used to half duplex because that is what most
 people make. I would love full duplex and with all the mimo gear
 it
 just my be possible to do it at a end user acceptable rate.

 Most of the area I am interested in have 1 block of 4 channels.
 One
 has 2, and a 3rd has 10!  I am very interested in find the exact
 contours for that one and what kind of bonding might be possible.
 Even
 just 40mhz Rockets would make me happy for a while.
