The current demand for a wireless electromagnetic spectrum is higher than ever before\ndue to rapid technological development in the field of information and communication technologies\nthat has resulted in monumental growth in data-centric services. The usage of idle TV channels in\nthe Television Ultra High Frequencies (TV-UHF) band (500â??698 MHz), also known as Television\nWhite Spaces (TVWS), is a relatively new and promising concept for wireless connectivity that can\nbe used to cater to the demand. A challenge in this setting is to figure out a fast and cost-effective\nmethod of TVWS presence estimation, such as the use of open hardware and software tools, reducing\nsensing time. This article proposes a Rapid Estimation Method (REM) for TVWS estimation that uses\nthe statistical information of the sensed signals.
