  1. 160 MHz Transmissions Authors: Date: 2010-07-12 Youhan Kim, et al.

  2. Background • TGac has adopted 160 MHz PHY transmission [1] • R3.1.1.A: The draft specification shall include support for 160 MHz PHY transmission. • R3.1.1.B: Tone allocation for 160 MHz operation shall consist of two 80 MHz tone allocations. • R3.1.1.C: The draft specification shall include support for non-contiguous 160 MHz PHY transmission whose frequency spectrum consists two segments, each transmitted using any two 11ac 80 MHz channels, possibly non-adjacent in frequency. Contiguous and non-contiguous 160 MHz devices shall be capable of transmitting and receiving frames between each other when the two segments of the non-contiguous 160 MHz device are placed in frequency to match the tone allocation of the contiguous 160 MHz device. • Additional details for 160 MHz PHY transmissions are provided Youhan Kim, et al.

  3. Reference Oscillator • 11n • Transmit chain center frequency and symbol clock frequency for all transmit antennas shall be derived from the same reference oscillator • Propose for 11ac • Transmit chain center frequency and symbol clock frequency for all transmit antennas and frequency segments shall be derived from the same reference oscillator • Makes the center frequency and symbol clock frequency between frequency segments of non-contiguous transmitters be locked in frequency • Not practical for the two frequency segments in a single system to use separate reference oscillators anyhow Youhan Kim, et al.

  4. Phase of LO BetweenLower and Upper 80 MHz of 160 MHz (1) • Tone allocation of contiguous 160 MHz consists of two 80 MHz tone allocations • Identical to tone allocation of non-contiguous 160 MHz with two freq. segments placed next to each other • What else is needed for interoperability between contiguous and non-contiguous 160 MHz devices? • Suppose • TX: Non-contiguous 160 MHz device • RX: Contiguous 160 MHz device Non-Contiguous TX Contiguous RX D A C A D C 160 MHz D A C Segment 0 Segment 1 PLL PLL The non-contiguous TX placed its two frequency segments next to each other to communicate with contiguous RX PLL Ref. Osc. Ref. Osc. Youhan Kim, et al.

  5. Phase of LO BetweenLower and Upper 80 MHz of 160 MHz (2) • Unreasonable to assume that the two frequency segments from a non-contiguous TX have identical phase/phase noise (two separate PLLs) • To ensure that contiguous devices can properly receive signals transmitted from non-contiguous devices • Phase of LO shall not be assumed to be correlated between the lower and upper 80 MHz frequency portions of 160 MHz PPDUs being transmitted • Contiguous RX to perform phase tracking per lower and upper 80 MHz portions separately • 8 pilot tones per 80 MHz portions sufficient for separate phase tracking • Contiguous RX to not perform channel smoothing across the boundary of lower and upper 80 MHz portions • Already at least 3.75 MHz gap between the lower and upper 80 MHz anyhow 80 MHz 80 MHz 11 DC tones (3.75 MHz gap) Youhan Kim, et al.

  6. 160 MHz Reusing 80 MHz • Tone allocation for 160 MHz transmissions consists of two 80 MHz tone allocations repeated twice in frequency [1] • Propose to repeat 80 MHz preamble and pilot mapping twice in frequency for 160 MHz • 160 MHz tone allocation naturally paves way to reusing of 80 MHz HW to support 160 MHz transmissions 80 MHz 80 MHz 80 MHz tone allocation 80 MHz tone allocation Youhan Kim, et al.

  7. Preamble for 160 MHz Transmissions (1) • Extend 80 MHz preamble to 160 MHz preamble by simple repetition in frequency • Phase rotation per 20 MHz subchannel (from L-STF to VHT-SIG B) • 80 MHz : [1, -1, -1, -1] (see ref. [2]) • 160 MHz : [1, -1, -1, -1, 1, -1, -1, -1] • L-STF sequence • Repeat the 11n 20 MHz L-STF pattern given in Equation (20-8) in each 20 MHz subchannel • L-LTF sequence • Repeat the 11n 20 MHz L-LTF pattern given in Equation (20-11) in each 20 MHz subchannel Youhan Kim, et al.

  8. Preamble for 160 MHz Transmissions (2) • VHT-STF sequence • Repeat the 80 MHz VHT-STF sequence [3] twice in frequency where VHTSTF-122,122 is the VHT-STF sequence for 80 MHz [3] Youhan Kim, et al.

  9. Preamble for 160 MHz Transmissions (3) • VHT-LTF sequence • Repeat the 80 MHz VHT-LTF sequence [2] twice in frequency where VHTLTF-122,122 is the VHT-LTF sequence for 80 MHz [2] Youhan Kim, et al.

  10. Phase Rotation for Data Symbols • Apply the same phase rotation per 20 MHz subchannel used for preamble to the data symbols • [1, -1, -1, -1, 1, -1, -1, -1] Youhan Kim, et al.

  11. Pilot Sequence for Data Symbols (1) • Pilot tones in VHT-LTF has been proposed [4] • Same pilot sequence values for all space-time streams • Allows phase tracking during VHT-LTF for enhanced channel estimation quality • Needed to support higher order MIMO, 256-QAM, DL MU-MIMO • Pilot sequence for 20/40/80 MHz proposed in [5] • Same pilot sequence values for all space-time streams • Allows phase tracking w/o MIMO channel estimation for pilot tones • Repeat 80 MHz pilot sequence and mapping twice in frequency for 160 MHz transmissions Youhan Kim, et al.

  12. Pilot Sequence for Data Symbols (2) • The pilot tone mapping in 160 MHz where n is the 80 MHz pilot pattern [5], and n is the VHT-DATA symbol index • Including the pseudo random scrambling sequence, the pilot value for the kth tone, with k = {±25, ±53, ±89, ±117, ±139, ±167, ±203}, is pn+zPnk, where z = 4 for VHT, and where pn is defined in Section 17.3.5.9 of IEEE802.11 • This does not include the rotation per 20 MHz subchannel yet Youhan Kim, et al.

  13. Summary • Transmit chain center frequency and symbol clock frequency for all transmit antennas and frequency segments shall be derived from the same reference oscillator • All transmit chains and frequency segments are frequency locked • Phase of LO shall not be assumed to be correlated between the lower and upper 80 MHz frequency portions of 160 MHz PPDUs being transmitted • Ensure contiguous 160 MHz RX can receive 160 MHz PPDUs from non-contiguous 160 MHz TX • 160 MHz preamble constructed by repeating the 80 MHz preamble twice in frequency • 80 MHz L-STF, L-LTF, L-SIG, VHT-STF, VHT-LTF repeated twice • 80 MHz phase rotation per 20 MHz subband repeated twice • Extend the phase rotation per 20 MHz subband of the 160 MHz preamble to the 160 MHz data portion • 160 MHz pilot mapping obtained by repeating the 80 MHz pilot mapping twice in frequency Youhan Kim, et al.
