TV white space; cognitive radio; white space device; spectrum sensing; geolocation database; opportunistic spectrum access; secondary use; aggregate interference; LTE over TVWS.

As it is known, to eliminate interference, the frequency reuse approach is followed in digital TV (DTV) planning similar to cellular networks, avoiding the use of the same channel in two neighboring allotments. There are large areas where certain groups of TV channels are not deliberately used. They are called white spaces in TV spectrum (TVWS). Considering the great economical value of TV spectrum, it was proposed to use TVWSs for low-power wireless networking on non-interfering (secondary) basis with the licensed (primary) DTV service.
