IEEE 802.11ah Use Case – Outdoor Wi-Fi for cellular traffic offloading Date: 22th February, 2011 Authors:
Outline • We propose outdoor Wi-Fi for cellular traffic offloading as IEEE 802.11ah use case
About IEEE 802.11ah • This amendment defines an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) Physical layer (PHY) operating in the license-exempt bands below 1 GHz, e.g., 868-868.6 MHz (Europe), 950 MHz -958 MHz (Japan), 314-316 MHz, 430-434 MHz, 470-510 MHz, and 779-787 MHz (China), 917 – 923.5 MHz (Korea) and 902-928 MHz (USA), and enhancements to the IEEE 802.11 Medium Access Control (MAC) to support this PHY, and provides mechanisms that enable coexistence with other systems in the bands including IEEE 802.15.4 and IEEE P802.15.4g. • The data rates defined in this amendment optimize the rate vs. range performance of the specific channelization in a given band. • This amendment also adds support for: • transmission range up to 1 km • data rates > 100 kbit/s while maintaining the 802.11 WLAN user experience for fixed, outdoor, point to multi point applications.
Motivation • Mobile traffic explosion is significant problem of vendors and operators
Motivation • Traffic offloading by 802.11 WLAN is considered as good solution of mobile traffic explosion • However, current 802.11(a, g, n, ac) WLAN have short coverage and assume indoor environment • TGah has large coverage (~1km), so it can be used for mobile traffic offloading in outdoor environment

Offloading effect estimation • LTE-Adv. (FDD 10 + 10, base coverage urban) • DL(4x2): 21 ~ 27 Mbps • UL(2x4): 15 ~ 18 Mbps • 802.11ac (20MHz bandwidth) • 1 spatial stream:6.5 ~ 86.7 Mbps • 8 spatial stream:52 ~ 693 Mbps • 802.11ah (5MHz bandwidth) • 1 spatial stream: ~ 18 Mbps (64QAM, R=5/6, reduced GI)
