Abstract

The demand for wireless internet access continues to grow. A large number of services, irrespective of their application, are now moving to internet protocol. Furthermore there is growing expectation that these be accessible on the move which places huge demand on the main subscriber networks. Networks based on IEEE 802.22 operating in white space spectrum have been put forward as a means for easing the load. This paper builds on our previous work which has constructed a highly detailed white space geolocation database for the UK. Using the database a simulation study was performed to determine the potential data throughput of a television white space system network. In this paper we will present results to indicate how the throughput of such systems varies as function of the availability threshold.
