H2GF COMMENTS ON ALLOCATION FOR WIRELESS ACCESS SYSTEMS OPERATING IN THE FREQUENCY RANGE 5150 MHz TO 5875 MHz Peter Karlsson Chairman H2GF Regulatory Working Group 2 June 2000
Agenda • Leave out HIPERLAN 0, no good proposition! • HIPERLAN/2 technologies. • H2GF objectives & backgound • Band partitioning in the 5 GHz band: • IEEE 802.11a to be permitted operation? • partition between HIPERLAN type1 and type 2? • partition between private/public systems? • H2GF suggestions and goals.
General H2GF Objectives • Achieve globally interoperable products • Lower equipment cost • High total system capacity • No band partitioning • Seamless interoperation • Private and public use with the same terminal • Connection-oriented with support for QoS
H/2 The Enabling Standard • Broadband communication, up to 54 Mbit/s • Plug & play radio network (MAC, DFS) • Security, authentication & encryption • Generic architecture allows interoperation: - legacy LAN (Ethernet) - PPP-based access (e.g. for VPN) - 3G cellular networks - IEEE 1394 (Firewire) - ATM
Office HiperLAN2 - Seamless wireless datacom solution Local Area WLAN Datacom Airport Home Hotel & Conference Roaming Trainstation Publicspace Wide area cellular datacom
HiperLAN2 Technologies • MAC scheduler at AP • Centralised control • Supports uniform traffic load • Inter & Intra system interference mitigation • Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) • Link Adaptation • Transmit Power Control (TPC) • Support of smart (sectored) AP antennas
Band Partitioning Remarks • Licence exempt uncoordinated spectrum use within global standards has advantages to the total system capacity. • In combination with enabling technologies it is the best use of spectrum also for mixed services • However, the system must support interference mitigation and guaranteed QoS
Spectrum Requirement Notes Only 5150-5250 MHz has currently been agreed by footnote in the Radio Regulation as an allocation to mobile services by ITU-R. The ERC Decision has allocated the other parts of the band within Europe only. ERC allocation is for HIPERLANs based on CEPT co-existence studies. Interference reduction requirements: DFS, TPC, Uniform traffic load etc.
IEEE 802.11a to be permitted operating in these band? • H/2 and IEEE 802.11a same PHY layer • only 5150-5350 MHz as common bands • Different MAC algorithms • No centrally controlled traffic load over channels • No Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) • Follow the ERC allocation for HIPERLANs • co-existence study needed before allocation of spectrum to IEEE 802.11a, +DFS & TPC!
Need to address public and private spectrum partitioning? • The system must fulfil the requirements for operation of networks and critical services • The services should not be regulated by licensing but by means of system enabling technologies - MAC, DFS, QoS & Security • The spectrum should not be partitioned for private and public services - seamless use!
Partition HIPERLAN Type 1 from HIPERLAN Type 2? • The outcome of this issue depends on the different physical layers, idea for further study: H/1 could adapt to H/2 channels or H/2 PHY. • It also depends on the answer to the question; what will be the high sales volume application? • Commercial support for H/2 is very strong, today more than 30 members in H2GF! • H/2 must be allowed operation in 455 MHz.

Band Plan According to ERC Co-existence studies have to be made before any change of the ERC decision band plan can be made.
H2GF Goals • Certified interoperable products on the market early 2002 • Ensure unlicensed spectrum allocated on all global major markets • Complementing the 3G cellular datacom system • Visit us at http://www.hiperlan2.com
Conclusions & Suggestions • HiperLAN2 fulfils spectrum requirements. • HiperLAN2 is a system that can guarantee QoS levels without band partitioning. • Seamless operation in private and public environments necessary. • High system capacity - no band partitioning! • Co-existence between H1/H2/802.11 needs to be solved preferably by technical means: BRAN
