Path to 1 GBit/s WLAN ? Andreas Wolf, Dr. Wolf & Associates
Extensive research as part of Wolf’s academic / research career PhD in 1990:Application of SAW-based convolver for telecommunication testing “Habilitation” in 1992: (“path” to professorship in Germany) Coding techniques for broadband ISDN [ATM] testing Wolf has developed CCF Coding (Cross Correlation Function) as part of his habilitation in 1991 CCF is almost identical to O-QPSK used in IEEE 802.15.4 (but used in ATM) Wolf is named inventor in related Siemens patent (patent now owned by Tektronix) Continued development of CCF together with Prof. Schwetlick in mid/late 1990’s Increase of bit/s/Hz, move to wireless ”Compilation” of PSSS in 2003 PSSS Background Status Origin of the technology • Comprehensive simulations of PSSS • Reference implementation in progress • Physical proof of concept • Reference design, VHDL, bit-identical simulation bench • R&D grant from BMBF (Ministry of Research & Education, Germany) • Prototype implementation, benchmarking • Pursuing multiple partnering opportunities • Gigabit WLAN (Europe) • WLL (Asia) • Low data rate (100 Kbit/s, 4 bit/s/Hz) Limitation ? • Coherence length of signal in PSSS effectively limits the maximum cell size • However, the resulting coherence length is still larger than typical WLAN cell sizes Andreas Wolf, Dr. Wolf & Associates
