Objectives • Extend adjacent frequency coding to include some form of multi-carrier modulation: • Reuse antipodal signaling aimed at canceling sidelobe contributions in adjacent carriers; • Introduce multi-carrier modulation to minimize the impact on the existing WiMedia PHY Specification: • Preserve the existing time/frequency spreading characteristics in order to maintain system performance in the presence of a variety of channel impairments, SOP interference most notably; • Preserve the existing tone mapping to minimize the impact on the interleave and cyclic shift structures.

Adjacent Sidelobe Contributions • AFC leverages the observation that sidelobe contributions in adjacent tones are similar in amplitude: WiMedia Confidential
Sidelobe Cancellation • The achievable notch depth can be increased by canceling adjacent sidelobe contributions: WiMedia Confidential
Existing DCM Mechanism • Dual Carrier Modulation as originally conceived can be described in terms of a linear transformation, M, as follows: • Where the indices {a,b,c,d} represent a mapping from the interleaved transmit bitstream, • and M={mij}; i,j=[1:2] constitutes a linear mapping of tones in the transmit OFDM symbol. WiMedia Confidential
Modified AFC • Building directly on the original AFC proposal, a linear mapping resembling that employed by DCM can be identified, aimed at canceling mutual interference in adjacent subcarriers: • Where ck=xk +jyk corresponds to the output of the symbol mapper, QPSK or DCM encoded, depending on the selected data rate.* *The extent to which M-AFC can be applied at rates above 200Mb/s is still under investigation.

System Simulation Simulation results were compiled using the following system configuration: • WiMedia compliant 1.0 PHY • Mandatory rates (53.3-200Mb/s)[1] • M-AFC, = 0.5 • ~20MHz tone notching (3.6-3.8GHz) • Incumbent service passive during link tests [1]The applicability of M-AFC to higher data rates is still under investigation WiMedia Confidential

Closing Remarks • M-AFC applies a linear transformation at the symbol mapper output leaving tone assignment and existing interleaver structure unchanged; • Resembling DCM, M-AFC achieves antipodal signaling without sacrificing the time/frequency spreading present in the existing spec; • The resulting notch depth approaches that demonstrated with the original AFC, less ~5dB once considerations affecting link performance are taken into account; • The rate of OOB rolloff also increases similarly to the original AFC proposal over that without antipodal signaling.
