Psum is increased. Phase Noise (PhN) is less then the threshold level B Packet has been transmitted. Psum is decreasing. Phase Noise exceeds the threshold level C Interference. Psum is increased. Phase Noise exceeds the threshold level D Power level of the packet to be transmitted is decreased due to low phase noise level of the previous packet E Power level of the packet to be transmitted is increased due to high phase noise level of the previous packet F Packet was lost because of increasing interference level during packet transmission G Packet was normally received due to high transmission power level Slide 4

9 doc.: IEEE 802.11-01/152 Submission March 2001 Vlad Oleynik, Umbrella Technology Transmitter power level adaptation Transmitter power level adaptation is based on the forecast, which is formed by real time measurement of the propagating condition change Signal/Interference Ratio (SIR) - interference level changes involve adequate transmitter power level changes Generating a forecast of the minimum necessary power level is based on RSSI and measurement of phase noise fluctuations, taking into account PER statistics optimum transmission power level is achieved and maintained adaptation of the transmitter mode to the typical changes of the medium when affected by changing interferences Slide 9

10 doc.: IEEE 802.11-01/152 Submission March 2001 Vlad Oleynik, Umbrella Technology Packet Length Adaptation Packets Noise/Interference Phase Noise Packets Threshold Phase Noise When interference is present, smaller packet length corresponds with decreased PER value Slide 10

11 doc.: IEEE 802.11-01/152 Submission March 2001 Vlad Oleynik, Umbrella Technology Packet Length Adaptation Adaptation of the packet length is based on analysis of the recent propagating conditions as well as on the cumulative statistics-based forecast for the given modulation/coding and power level Packet length adaptation to achieve maximum throughput rate is suitable for extreme conditions. For any extreme condition it is possible to determine the right packet length to provide an advantage in throughput rate Slide 11

12 doc.: IEEE 802.11-01/152 Submission March 2001 Vlad Oleynik, Umbrella Technology Packet Length Adaptation At a sufficiently high BER value the best average throughput will be achieved by selecting optimal packet length and proper modulation/coding method (not necessarily with max bit rate).

14 doc.: IEEE 802.11-01/152 Submission March 2001 Vlad Oleynik, Umbrella Technology Adaptation of modulation methods Adaptation of modulation methods Adaptation of modulation/coding methods is based on analysis of the current state of the medium and propagation condition forecast including multi-path channels for a given power level and packet length Switching modulation method to achieve maximum throughput rate is suitable for extreme conditions. For extreme conditions a modulation/coding scheme with bigger redundancy (less bit rate) may have the advantage in throughput rate Slide 14
