Simultaneously Operating Piconets

  • Objective is to evaluate uncoordinated piconet

channelization in multipath

  • N = 1 interferer case examined here
  • Five different sets of CIRs for the reference link are

being used:

– Freespace – To make simulation times feasible, representative channels from CMs 1-4 were chosen based on the quintiles of System Performance results:

  • CM1 representatives

– CIRs 3, 59, 83, 81, and 40

  • CM2 representatives

– CIRs 8, 56, 42, 31, and 58

  • CM3 representatives

– CIRs 26, 39, 11, 60, and 62

  • CM4 representatives

– CIRs 64, 79, 18, 52, 57

  • These representative channels were

used as the reference links for the SOP simulations

  • The quality of the reference link will

impact SOP performance. This procedure allows us to quantify the effect.

Simultaneously Operating Piconets

300 CIRs from CMs 1-3 as the interfering links.

  • All other representative reference links were

simulated against 60 interfering links from channel models 1-4. – 15 links from each of channel models 1-4.

  • Reference link distance is set at half the 8% PER

distance (providing notionally a 6 dB margin).

  • Interfering link is walked in.
  • PER is recorded as a function of the ratio of the

interfering link distance to the reference link distance.

Strategies for Enhanced Channelization in Harsh Environments

  • For significant fading on bands, drop the

faded bands

  • For very severe multipath and/or near-

far scenarios, use FDMA Both strategies yield dramatic improvement in SOP performance

Simultaneous Operating Piconet Simulation Results Summary

  • Time-frequency codes as implemented

provide 8-10 dB of isolation between piconets in freespace.

  • Multipath will decrease piconet isolation.
  • Piconet isolation is enhanced by dropping

severely faded bands in a multipath environment.

  • FDMA techniques are employed in near/far

and severe multipath scenarios.

Coexistence

  • Determined 802.15.3a impact to 802.11a,

802.11b, 802.15.1, 802.15.3, and 802.15.4

  • Receiver impact based on AWGN analysis
  • Minimize impact to selected wireless standards

by modifying the FCC indoor/handheld emission mask

  • Banded approach naturally reduces emissions in

the selected bands thereby reducing the additional filtering needs in the 802.15.3a radio implementation

Interference Susceptibility Analysis

  • IEEE 802.11 a, IEEE 802.11 b, IEEE 802.15.4, Bluetooth and Microwave oven
  • Interference models were incorporated into the simulator and analog front-end

attenuation factors were determined for each interferer

  • The simulations were carried out using a receiver template with a rectangular envelope
  • Signal linearity with very wide dynamic range was assumed
  • Simulation results using an analog front-end filter and with mixer limitations will be

presented in May

  • Generic In-Band Tone and Modulated Interferers
  • Interference models were incorporated into the simulator and the received power of the

interferer was varied for different center frequencies

  • There was a good correspondence between the receiver template frequency response at

the center frequency of the interferer and the observed performance

  • The analysis was done assuming the sub-band overlapping with the interferer will not

be used

  • The effect of not dropping the overlapping sub-band was also analyzed
