Abstract

A computing device includes circuitry configured to transmit, to a server device, information of channels that can be used, and receive a plurality of lists from the server device. The lists are generated from the information of the channels that can be used. Each of the lists identifies ranges and indicates an available frequency and transmission power of the frequency for each of the ranges. Each of the ranges is a geographic region. Each of the lists identifies multiple geographic regions. The plurality of geographic regions is a same plurality of geographic regions for all of the lists. The frequency corresponding to any one of the ranges in any one of the lists is not set in an overlapped manner to the frequency corresponding to the same one of the ranges in any other one of the lists.

Claims (25)

1. A computing device comprising:

circuitry configured to

transmit, to a server device, information of channels that can be used; and

receive a plurality of lists from the server device,

wherein the plurality of lists is generated from the information of the channels that can be used, such that each of the plurality of lists identifies a plurality of ranges and indicates an available frequency and transmission power of the frequency for each of the plurality of ranges, each of the plurality of ranges being a geographic region, such that each of the plurality of lists identifies a plurality of geographic regions,

the plurality of geographic regions is a same plurality of geographic regions for all of the plurality of lists, and

the frequency corresponding to any one of the plurality of ranges in any one of the plurality of lists is not set in an overlapped manner to the frequency corresponding to the same one of the plurality of ranges in any other one of the plurality of lists.

2. The computing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the frequency is a frequency included in a plurality of frequencies that are not used by a system whose operation is approved on a basis of license, the plurality of frequencies being in a frequency band allowed to be used by the system.

3. The computing device according to claim 2 ,

wherein the plurality of lists are generated on a basis of information of the available frequency.

4. The computing device according to claim 3 ,

wherein the plurality of lists are generated when it is detected that the information of the available frequency changes.

5. The computing device according to claim 3 ,

wherein the plurality of lists are generated on a basis of the information of the available frequency which is notified from the external device.

6. The computing device according to claim 3 ,

wherein the plurality of lists are generated on a basis of notification of detection of a radio wave in the available frequency band which is notified from the external device.

7. The computing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein, in the lists, content varies with time.

8. A method comprising:

transmitting, to a server device, information of channels that can be used; and

receiving a plurality of lists from the server device,

wherein the plurality of lists is generated from the information of the channels that can be used, such that each of the plurality of lists identifies a plurality of ranges and indicates an available frequency and transmission power of the frequency for each of the plurality of ranges, each of the plurality of ranges being a geographic region, such that each of the plurality of lists identifies a plurality of geographic regions,

the plurality of geographic regions is a same plurality of geographic regions for all of the plurality of lists, and

the frequency corresponding to any one of the plurality of ranges in any one of the plurality of lists is not set in an overlapped manner to the frequency corresponding to the same one of the plurality of ranges in any other one of the plurality of lists.
