Abstract

The invention relates to a method for efficiently configuring a mesh network in a white space band and to a device therefor. In order to configure a mesh network in a white space band, a first station, which is accessible to a geographical position database through direct Internet access, notifies at least one second station through a gate announcement frame, for which the first station itself serves as a mesh gate; at least one second station receives a first multi-hop management action frame including position information on each of at least one, mesh point that subscribes to a mesh network; and a second multi-hop management action frame including information on an available channel in the white space is transmitted to at least one mesh point. Therefore, a mesh network may be configured in a white space band.
