“…The key insight gained from the work is that there is a correlation between spectrum channel quality, centre frequency and signal propagation [74]. The modelling of a rural TVWS broadband spectrum market based on the Bertrand game model has also been proposed [76]. Different from the preceding work, the author considered the QoS for both primary and secondary users.…”

Television white space (TVWS) technology is approaching the potential roll-out phase for commercial deployment, supported by recent pilot projects being conducted globally. Undeniably, TVWS technology is faced with daunting challenges that require attention. To enable an ecosystem in which TVWS technology can flourish, there is a need for a complete analysis of the challenges, trends and future research direction related to this technology. Database-assisted TVWS technology is market driven, geared toward the spectrum reuse paradigm, and faces fewer technical hurdles. Our goal in this paper is to present a tutorial review of the challenges related to database-assisted TVWS networks using the SLEPT (social, legal, economic, political, and technological) analysis framework. The SLEPT framework is a management model that is extensively used for quantitative analysis. A brief review of TVWS technology using the SLEPT model reveals that the technology has been socially accepted, legal challenges are evident in some countries, economic models are the way forward and are main focus of current research trends, TVWS technology cannot be implemented without political will emanating from spectrum reforms, and there are many coexistence-motivated technological issues confronting TVWS technology. In summary, this paper provides an up-to-date survey on TVWS and presents current trends and future research directions in the TVWS context.

Television White Space (TVWS) networks only utilizes a licensed channel in the absence of a primary user network (PUN). Therefore, the performance of TVWS networks are greatly depended on activity pattern of PUN. In this paper, we address the problem of spectrum sharing in cognitive radio environment consisting of PUN and TVWS networks from the perspective of spectrum quality. We propose a self-indicating distributive dynamic Cournot spectrum economic game using non-cooperative game. To capture the dynamic parameter that characterizes dynamic TVWS, a differentiating parameter known as the Channel Instability Index (CII), β, was introduced to grade the leased PUN channel holding time (with consideration of the time-varying radio attributes of the dynamic TVWS environment) and to enforce truthfulness in spectrum transactions. Based on the CII model, two possible scenarios were considered. Case I occurs if β = 0, which signifies stable PUN bandwidth and Case II, occurs if 0.1 ≤ β ≤ 0.9, which denotes an unstable PUN bandwidth spectrum. Based on our model, it was showed that utility and QoS measured in-terms of probability of dropped packets of TVWS networks were increased by more than 15 % in any epoch with the key enabler as β.
