Abstract
In an embodiment, a method for providing regulatory information by a first device in an ultra-wide band (UWB) system is provided. The method includes indicating availability of the regulatory information to a second device; and providing the regulatory information to the second device based on the availability of the regulatory information, wherein the regulatory information includes at least one of a confidence level indicating a source of the regulatory information, a country code, a time stamp.
Claims16
A method for providing ultra-wide band (UWB) regulatory information by a first device in a UWB system, comprising:
- indicating availability of the UWB regulatory information to a second device;
- receiving a request message for requesting the UWB regulatory information from the second device based on the availability of the UWB regulatory information;
- and
- transmitting a response message including the UWB regulatory information to the second device in response to the request message,
- wherein the UWB regulatory information includes source information indicating a source of the UWB regulatory information, a country code, a time stamp of the UWB regulatory information, and a list of regulatory channel and power information element.
A first device in an ultra-wide band (UWB) system, comprising:
- a transceiver;
- and
- at least one processor configured to control the transceiver to:
- indicate availability of UWB regulatory information to a second device,
- receive a request message for requesting the UWB regulatory information from the second device based on the availability of the UWB regulatory information, and
- transmit a response message including the UWB regulatory information to the second device in response to the request message,
- wherein the UWB regulatory information includes source information indicating a source of the UWB regulatory information, a country code, a time stamp of the UWB regulatory information, and a list of regulatory channel and power information element.
A second device in an ultra-wide band (UWB) system, comprising:
- a transceiver;
- and
- at least one processor configured to control the transceiver to:
- identify availability of UWB regulatory information indicated by a first device,
- transmit a request message for requesting UWB regulatory information to the first device based on the availability of the UWB regulatory information, and
- receive a response message including the UWB regulatory information from the first device in response to the request message,
- wherein the UWB regulatory information includes source information indicating a source of the UWB regulatory information, a country code, a time stamp of the UWB regulatory information, and a list of regulatory channel and power information element.
The second device of claimer 9, wherein the availability of the UWB regulatory information is indicated by using one of an advertisement message, an extended advertisement message, and a scan request and a scan response.
A method for receiving ultra-wide band (UWB) regulatory information by a second device in a UWB system, comprising:
- identifying availability of the UWB regulatory information indicated by a first device;
- transmitting a request message for requesting the UWB regulatory information to the first device based on the availability of the UWB regulatory information;
- and
- receiving a response message including the UWB regulatory information from the first device in response to the request message,
- wherein the UWB regulatory information includes source information indicating a source of the UWB regulatory information, a country code, a time stamp of the UWB regulatory information, and a list of regulatory channel and power information element.
