This amendment defines a new clause for Management and Control Plane Interfaces and Procedures to the existing IEEE Std 802.22-2011 for operation in VHF/UHF TV broadcast bands between 54 MHz and 862 MHz. The Management Information Base (MIB) structure enhancements include changes to comply with the ASN.1 format and support for the new clause. Modifications to the existing clause on Primitives for Cognitive Radio Capabilities to align it with the content in the MIB clause and the new clause are also defined. The purpose of this project is to enhance the definition of managed objects to enable efficient control and management of IEEE 802.22 devices operating in VHF/UHF TV broadcast bands between 54 MHz and 862 MHz. This amendment creates standardized management and control interfaces as well as procedures that allows a standardized specification between various external entities (e.g., Network Control and Management System, authorized TV Band Database Service, Spectrum Sensing Function, Geolocation Function, etc.) and the IEEE 802.22 entities. Amendment Standard - Superseded. This air interface, including the medium access control layer (MAC) and physical layer (PHY), of the fixed and portable point-to-multipoint wireless regional area networks (WRANs) operating in spectrum allocated to the Television Broadcasting Service in the frequency range of 54 MHz to 862 MHz is described in this amendment.
