Abstract :
The following paper presents and discusses the state of the art in White Space radio topologies. A possible system architecture combining database stations and active sensing is also presented. Some of the main challenges associated with such architectures are discussed and notes are made with regard to database design, sensing requirements and antenna specifications. The discussion could inform the development of distributed device networks which are needed to enable the Internet of Things.
