WIRELESS LOCAL AREA NETWORK USING TV WHITE SPACE SPECTRUM AND LONG TERM EVOLUTION SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE

摘要

A wireless local area network (WLAN) gateway may use a modified LTE radio frame and TV white space spectrum for data communications in a wireless local area network. In the modified LTE downlink frame a predefined subset of the pilot (reference) symbol subcarriers are used to carry information to data sinks in the WLAN.
