Simple Model for Phase Noise Impairment for TGn Comparison Criterion Colin Lanzl Aware, Inc. 40 Middlesex Turnpike, Bedford, MA 01730-1432 +1-781-687-0578 clanzl@aware.com Colin Lanzl, Aware
Objections to current IM 4 • Current text for IM4 was never agreed in full TGn; • Phase noise parameters not supported by published data; • Phase noise impairment does not sufficiently stress proposals; • There is an easier way… Colin Lanzl, Aware
Analytical Expression for Phase Noise as Filtered Gaussian Noise superimposed on tone • Gaussian noise filtered by lowpass-equivalent filter with floor: PSD(f) = PSDplateau[ 1/(1+f/fcor)2 ] + PSDfloor • fcor= corner frequency • PSDplateau = Phase noise power spectral density close to carrier • PSDfloor = Phase noise power spectral density floor very far from carrier Colin Lanzl, Aware

Fit Parameters PSDplateau = -94dBc/Hz fcor= 150kHz PSDfloor = -130dBc/Hz Colin Lanzl, Aware
Recommendation • If we must have a phase noise impairment (applied both to Tx and Rx radios), then it should be something that stresses proposals; • Should be supported by published 5GHz work; • Proposal: simple, lowpass filter model with floor, use fit parameters on previous slide.
