3 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission DSC basics Interworking with Legacy networks/STAs Looking at other’s simulations –Fixed CCA versus DSC Practical aspects of setting DSC Margin and Upper Limit How to use DSC Objectives June 2014 Graham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 3

4 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission Dynamic Sensitivity Control - DSC Scheme where STA measures the RSSI of the AP Beacon (R dBm) Sets RX Sensitivity Threshold at (R – M) dBm, where M is the “Margin” –Example: STA receives Beacon at -50dBm, with Margin = 20dB STA sets RX Sensitivity Threshold to -70dBm. Also set an Upper Limit, L, to Beacon RSSI to cater for case when STA is very close to AP. –Need to ensure that all the STAs in the wanted area do see each other. Hence if one STA very close to AP, then it could set RX Sensitivity too high. –Example: STA receives Beacon at -15dBm, L = -30dBm, M = 20dBm STA sets RX Sensitivity Threshold at -30 -20 = -50dBm (NOT –35dBm) If the RX sensitivity threshold is higher than the CCA Threshold then CCA Threshold = RX Sensitivity Threshold Graham Smith, DSP Group June 2014 Slide 4

5 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission It is important to note the difference between DSC and simply setting the CCA Threshold or the RX sensitivity to a higher value The chance of hidden STAs in the home network is greatly reduced The DSC STA, maintains full range. The sensitivity will move towards lowest value as the STA moves away from the AP See next Slide DSC maintains full sensitivity June 2014 Graham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 5

6 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission Hidden STAs – Fixed CCA vs DSC Graham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 6 June 2014 DSC Note NO hidden STAs

7 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission ADVANTAGES DSC can increase the area throughput by significant amounts –296% improvement for Single Apartment Complex –412% improvement for Double Apartment Complex –800% improvement for Cell Structure network DSC used in conjunction with channel selection can eliminate OBSS completely in dense apartment scenario DSC does not require any hardware changes and is simple to implement DSC can improve performance for all PHYs DSC does not degrade the range of a STA CONCERNS Effect on legacy networks/STAs How to set DSC parameters in unmanaged networks –Avoid hidden STAs DSC June 2014 Graham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 7

9 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission A legacy STA in the same network as a DSC STA is completely unaffected by the DSC STAs. The legacy STA may be held off from transmitting by STA in OBSS, but will compete equally with DSC STAs in same BSS –As other DSC STAs will ignore OBSS STAs their traffic is often occurring during a time when the legacy STA cannot TX, and hence overall contention is lessened. Legacy STAs and DSC STAs June 2014 Graham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 9

10 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission Legacy DSC mix ( 11n 2SS 270Mbps 32k Agg, 100Mbps) Graham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 10 June 2014 DSC Network with 2 DSC STAs 2 Legacy STAs OBSS Network 4 Legacy STAs DSC 100Mbps Legacy ~22Mbps Legacy STAs are not affected BUT look at the DSC STAs!

11 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission “Sharing” DSC and Legacy Networks Graham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 11 DSCLegacy Legacy Network Overlaps with DSC Network DSC Network/STAs does not Overlap with Legacy Network Note: This assumes Margin is sufficient such that both Legacy And DSC STAs can TX at same time.

12 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission DSC and Legacy STAs in apartment complex and cell cluster DSC network sharing with a legacy network, –DSC network does not see the legacy network –Legacy network does see the DSC network Legacy STAs will compete with own network STAs and with DSC STAs DSC STAs just compete with DSC STAs If Legacy STA wins it sends packet and completes even if DSC STA starts to transmit (DSC Margin is set to allow this – really important !) If DSC STA starts a packet the Legacy STAs will hold off. As soon as DSC STA completes transmission all DSC and Legacy STAs will then compete for medium. ALSO if DSC STA is transmitting when the Legacy STA completes its transmission, then the legacy STA will not hold off as CCA is now based on signal strength (i.e. -62dBm not -82dBm) Graham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 12

13 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission Throughput Simulations Graham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 13 Legacy Sharing DSC/Legacy Sharing Legacy STAs unaffected But look at the DSC!

14 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission Throughput Simulations Graham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 14 June 2014 Legacy Sharing DSC/Legacy Sharing

15 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission Legacy and DSC Simulation Actually Legacy STAs are better off!! DSC STAs are a lot better off (incentive to use the feature, even by itself) 270Mbps 2SS 11n Graham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 15

16 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission (My) MAC Simulations assume that the DSC Margin is such that BOTH Legacy AND DSC STA can transmit at the same time –The SNIR is sufficient to support the transmission –The DSC Margin is set such that this happens! Simulations that simply vary the CCA setting on all “DSC” STAs are not representative of what DSC is. –CCA level may not be such that both legacy and “CCA STA” can transmit at same time. This is will be shown. Other’s Simulations June 2014 Graham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 16

17 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 SubmissionGraham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 17 June 2014

18 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission For example consider simulation using the cell pattern with 3 channel re-use. Scenario 3. Mixture of “CCA STAs” and legacy STAs. –The “CCA STAs” are not using DSC but are simply STAs where the CCA threshold is set at varying levels. Set CCA - Simulations June 2014 Graham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 18

19 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission June 2014 Graham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 19 Example: Assume 10m radius cell, AP at center, 2.4GHz Note: With DSC, CCA Threshold varies within the Cell If CCA is higher than -66dBm then SNIR is not assured and simultaneous transmissions fail If CCA is higher than -56dBm then SNIR is not assured and simultaneous transmissions fail

20 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission 3 Channel repeat – Example June 2014 Graham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 20 SNR=30dB A B C STA A and B RSSI from AP = -41dBm RSSI STAs A, B= -41dBm, RSSI at AP A from STA B = -52dBm RSSI at AP B from STA A = -52dBm SNR at AP A = 11dB SNR at AP B = 11dB STA A must set CCA < -52dBm to share correctly with STA B STA A and C RSSI STAs A, C = -58dBm RSSI at AP A from STA C = -63dBm RSSI at AP B from STA A = -52dBm SNR at AP A = 22dB SNR at AP B = 11dB STA A must set CCA <-58dBm to share correctly With STA C and B STA D and C RSSI STAs D, C = -66dBm RSSI at AP A from STA C = -63dBm RSSI at AP B from STA D = -63dBm SNR at AP A = 22dB SNR at AP B = 22dB STA D must set CCA < -66dBm to share correctly With STA B and STA C NOTE: DSC sets -66dBm for STA A/B/C/D _ D A B

21 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission In this scenario, valid CCA thresholds should never be set above -66dBm, in order to maintain (OBSS) SNR values. –NOTE: TX power 23dBm, 2.4GHz, 0dBi antennas With DSC each STA has a different effective CCA, not sure what happens when all set at same CCA Fixing CCA threshold higher will result in the following: If a “CCA STA” starts to transmit when legacy STA is already transmitting (due to CCA), then both packets fail due to too low SNR A “CCA STA” already transmitting holds off legacy STA, and “CCA STA” packet is successful. RESULT: Legacy STA throughput is starved (as shown by simulation results) Observations - 1 June 2014 Graham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 21

22 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission 3 channel repeat will result in POOR THROUGHPUT –Analysis showed that 7 channel repeat was necessary to provide the required SNR (I also assumed 3dB obstruction loss per cell wall) –If DSC is applied correctly, legacy STAs will not suffer unduly. Also DSC STAs do not perform as well as they could –One advantage of DSC is to allow better channel re-use, this is not represented by this scenario As shown in previous DSC presentations, channel selection plus DSC is how to get optimal results The DSC Margin is the “Dynamic” part of DSC. It is essential as this provides the protection to legacy STAs. –In a given network the resulting CCA Threshold will vary from DSC STA to DSC STA –Stepping CCA threshold and setting one value across all “CCA STAs” is not the same as DSC. If CCA Threshold is such that a reasonable (OBSS) SNR is not resulting, legacy STAs will be shut out. Observations - 2 June 2014 Graham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 22

23 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission June 2014 Graham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 23

24 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission Can the AP know what the settings for Upper Limit and Margin should be? How does a STA set its Upper Limit and Margin if AP does not provide the settings? Points: –DSC STA will revert to maximum sensitivity as it wanders away from its AP. DSC does not limit the range (unlike fixed CCA). –Legacy AP will not be affected by having DSC STAs for DL traffic, BUT the Margin on the DSC STA will ensure that UL traffic can be coincidental with OBSS traffic. –What is effect if DSC STA is outside the DSC contention area? Unmanaged Networks Questions June 2014 Graham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 24

25 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission DSC STA outside area June 2014 Graham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 25 If All Legacy Simply reverts to ‘legacy’ throughputs on Overlapping STAs

26 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission Assuming legacy AP there is no undue effect if a DSC STA is outside the main area. It reverts to sharing with those it can see. –It does get less traffic throughput –BUT it equates to what it would get if all were legacy Note: If DSC AP, then the DSC contention area may be defined and the “stray STA” is outside and hence not associated Conclusion – there is no disadvantage (similar to a STA at range with CCA set at -82dBm) This is important, as in an unmanaged network, it is possible to set DSC for a ‘general’ condition without undue danger DSC STA outside of area (partially hidden) June 2014 Graham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 26

27 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 SubmissionGraham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 27 June 2014

28 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission Enterprise or Managed Area Networks –UL and M set the contention areas such that channel re-use provides for desired high data rates (as per the 7 segment analyses) –Extremely powerful for the DSC STAs but, as shown, legacy STAs do not suffer c.f. what happens if no DSC STAs present. –Good incentive for STA vendors to implement DSC UL and Margin Settings June 2014 Graham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 28

29 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission Residential Service Provider –In the dense apartment scenario DSC particularly useful, in this case relatively simple to know or preset the area. (DSC plus channel select effectively eliminates OBSS) –In the house (townhouse or standalone) less chance of OBSS (assuming that channel select), and hence DSC settings can be lower. –Could be preset based upon simple check list Size/type of property (e.g. apartment/house? Rooms? Floors?) –Setting of UL and M may be set if prepared to carry out simple instructions Walk the (high data rate required) area. Walk the extremes (for DSC AP) –Settings could be learnt - room for clever learning algorithms UL and Margin Settings June 2014 Graham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 29

30 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission Dumb User, residential DSC AP –Learning algorithm? After say 1 week, AP ‘knows’ distribution of its STAs. May use DSC to ‘prioritize’, for example, its HD video STAs Use of internal Receive Sensitivity threshold probably ‘dangerous’ DSC STA –No real danger to assume a setting such as -40dBm and 20dB. High probability of avoiding OBSS and always ‘in range’ as STA moves away from AP (this is a the major feature of DSC versus a fixed, higher, CCA threshold). UL and Margin Settings June 2014 Graham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 30

31 doc.: IEEE 802.11-14/0779r2 Submission For managed/enterprise area networks DSC has huge advantages and pretty simple to set up. In residential networks DSC is particularly advantageous for the dense apartment scenario. In practice the presetting of UL to -30/40dBm and Margin to 20/25dB would probably show significant advantages with respect to efficiency and OBSS. Summary June 2014 Graham Smith, DSP GroupSlide 31
