5. Submission doc.: IEEE 802.15-04/0122r0 March 2004 Slide 5 Presentation Outline  Summary of proposal  Includes Proposal Update with release of specification 02/268 r3  Enhancements to the band plan  Update on the FCC Regulatory approval

6. Submission doc.: IEEE 802.15-04/0122r0 March 2004 Slide 6 Summary of Updated Proposal

7. Submission doc.: IEEE 802.15-04/0122r0 March 2004 Slide 7 Overview of Multi-band OFDM  Basic idea: divide spectrum into several 528 MHz bands.  Information is transmitted using OFDM modulation on each band.  OFDM carriers are efficiently generated using an 128-point IFFT/FFT.  Internal precision requirement is reduced by limiting the constellation size to QPSK.  Information is coded across all bands in use to exploit frequency diversity and provide robustness against multi-path and interference.  60.6 ns prefix provides robustness against multi-path even in the worst channel environments.  9.5 ns guard interval provides sufficient time for switching between bands.

8. Submission doc.: IEEE 802.15-04/0122r0 March 2004 Slide 8 Update to MB-OFDM band plan  Combine the advantages of FDMA and Time-Frequency Coding.  Divide the 7.5 GHz of spectrum into band groups that occupy spectrum of around 1584 MHz (3 bands).  4 available TF Codes  support for up to 4 piconets per band group.  FDMA approach ensures better SOP performance.

9. Submission doc.: IEEE 802.15-04/0122r0 March 2004 Slide 9 Update to MB-OFDM Band plan  Updated band plan for 3.1 – 10.6 GHz allocation  There are 5 Band Groups:  Band group #1 is mandatory, remaining (#2 – #5) are optional.  Define 4 Time-Frequency coded Logical Channels for Band groups #1 – #4.  Define 2 Time-Frequency coded Logical Channels for Band group #5.  This yields 18 potential Logical Channels  support for 18 piconets.  Can avoid Band group #2 when interference from U-NII is present.

10. Submission doc.: IEEE 802.15-04/0122r0 March 2004 Slide 10 Update to MB-OFDM Band plan TF Code map  Mapping of TF Codes and Preambles to Logical Channels in a Band Group: Band Groups Preamble Pattern TF Code Length Time Frequency Code 1,2,3,416123123 26132132 36112233 46113322 5141212–– 241122––

11. Submission doc.: IEEE 802.15-04/0122r0 March 2004 Slide 11 Update to MB-OFDM band plan SOP & RF Properties  Because of path loss, the maximum range that can be supported by each Band Group will be different, i.e., R max,1 > R max,2 > R max,3 > R max,4 > R max,5  Range differential can be used to advantage – for example:  For applications that require larger range (e.g. DVD to HDTV), use Band Group #1 or #2.  For applications that do not require quite as much range use Band Group #3, #4, or #5.  Efficiently uses spectrum for optimized SOP performance  not every application uses the same spectrum

12. Submission doc.: IEEE 802.15-04/0122r0 March 2004 Slide 12 Update to MB-OFDM Band plan Piconet Association  Band Group # 1 is mandatory  All devices must be able to tune to Band Group #1 and search for beacon.  Support for other Band Groups can be added over time.  When a device supports more than one Band Group, it should be able to scan for beacons in each of the different Band Groups supported by the device  Example: Start with Band Group #1 and look for a beacon. If no beacon is found, switch to Band Group #2 and look for a beacon, etc.  Similar operation to IEEE 802.11b and IEEE 802.15.3 devices.

13. Submission doc.: IEEE 802.15-04/0122r0 March 2004 Slide 13 Frequency Synthesis  All center frequencies can be generated using a single PLL.  Can use similar types of architectures as defined before for the Band Group #1:

14. Submission doc.: IEEE 802.15-04/0122r0 March 2004 Slide 14 Multi-band OFDM  Advantages (1)  Suitable for CMOS implementation (all components).  Only one transmit and one receive chain at all times, even in the presence of multi-path.  Antenna and pre-select filter are easier to design (can possibly use off- the-shelf components).  Early time to market!  Low cost, low power, and CMOS integrated solution leads to:  Early market adoption!

15. Submission doc.: IEEE 802.15-04/0122r0 March 2004 Slide 15 Multi-band OFDM  Advantages (2)  Inherent robustness in all the expected multipath environments.  Excellent robustness to ISM, U-NII, and other generic narrowband interference.  Ability to comply with world-wide regulations:  Bands and tones can be dynamically turned on/off to comply with changing regulations.  Coexistence with current and future systems:  Bands and tones can be dynamically turned on/off for enhanced coexistence with the other devices.  Scalability with process:  Digital section complexity/power scales with improvements in technology nodes (Moore’s Law).  Analog section complexity/power scales slowly with technology node.

24. Submission doc.: IEEE 802.15-04/0122r0 March 2004 Slide 24 FCC Update  Last meeting…  Presented analysis, simulation, and measurement results of interference into a C-band satellite receiver showing the MB-OFDM waveform causes less interference than an impulse radio already allowed under the current rules  Since the last meeting…  We have presented the results to both the FCC and NTIA  We have sent both a more detailed write-up of the testing procedures  Both the FCC and NTIA have decided to pursue their own testing to reconcile the claims from both sides  ITS initial estimate to complete the testing for NTIA was 9 months  FCC testing is targeting a significantly shorter period (on the order of a few months)  We have offered to support their testing by providing equipment as needed and review test plans or procedures as requested  We have provided feedback to ITS regarding their test plan (per NTIA request)  We will review FCC test procedures for their independent testing per FCC request

25. Submission doc.: IEEE 802.15-04/0122r0 March 2004 Slide 25 FCC Update  Implications…  FCC still maintains that the issue is about interference and not technicalities in the measurement procedure  FCC initially asked for this issue to be resolved within the IEEE  Several studies have been contributed to the IEEE  However, final decision must be made by the FCC (IEEE cannot make decisions that affect other spectrum-holders)  We have asked the FCC to make a ruling on this matter in a timely manner so that the UWB industry can move forward quickly  Practicality of doing this testing will likely take a few months  The FCC understands the need to close this issue quickly and is doing everything they can to speed up this process
