The IEEE1900.5.1 standard: Policy Language for Dynamic Spectrum Access Systems

Abstract

The 1900.5 Workgroup of the IEEE Dynamic Spectrum Access Networks Standards Committee (DySPAN-SC) has been working on the development of the IEEE 1900.5.1 standard which defines a Policy Language for Dynamic Spectrum Access Systems in conformance with the requirements stated in the IEEE 1900.5 standard. The policy language allows for the construction of machine interpretable policies for DSA systems that can express how such systems should adapt their operation under changes in radio environment conditions, among other objectives. The language combines concepts of ontologies, knowledge representation and first order logic. The standard is expected to be released in 2020.
