IEEE 802.22: The First Worldwide Wireless Standard Based on Cognitive Radios

Overview In November/2004, it witnessed the formation of the first worldwide effort to define a novel wireless air interface1 standard based on Cognitive Radios (CRs): the IEEE 802.22 Working Group (WG). The IEEE 802.22 WG is chartered with the development of a CR-based Wireless Regional Area Network (WRAN) PHYsical (PHY) and Medium Access Control (MAC) layers for use by license-exempt devices in the spectrum that is currently allocated to the TeleVision (TV) service. This paper provides a detailed overview of the 802.22 architecture, its requirements, applications, and coexistence considerations that not only form the basis for the definition of this groundbreaking wireless air interface standard, but that will also serve as foundation for future research in the promising area of CRs.
