Project: IEEE P802.15 Working Group for Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPANs) Submission Title: [Proposed technique for transmitter EVM measurement] Date Submitted: [27 June 2001] Source: [Keith Holt] Company [Intel Corporation] Address [9750 Goethe Road, M/S LOC 3/8, Sacramento, CA 95827] Voice:[(916) 855-5177], FAX: [(916) 854-2809], E-Mail:[keith.holt@intel] Re: [] Abstract: [This contribution presents a proposed measurement technique for verifying compliance to the transmitter EVM specification.] Purpose: [For information only.] Notice: This document has been prepared to assist the IEEE P802.15. It is offered as a basis for discussion and is not binding on the contributing individual(s) or organization(s).

Release: The contributor acknowledges and accepts that this contribution becomes the property of IEEE and may be made publicly available by P802.15. Keith Holt, Intel Corporation

  2. Problem • Purpose of EVM is to measure the modulation accuracy of the transmitter • EVM Measurement is ambiguous unless the precise conditions are specified under which it is to be measured • Some transmitter impairments are mitigated by the receiver • Current wording implies a transmitter design which is more difficult than necessary Keith Holt, Intel Corporation

  3. Definitions • Definition #1 • Measurement of the deviation of the actual transmitter from an ideal transmitter • Includes effects of all impairments • Definition #2 • Measurement of the uncorrectable deviation of the actual transmitter from an ideal transmitter as determined using an “ideal” reference receiver • Impairments mitigated by reference receiver don’t count Keith Holt, Intel Corporation

  4. I/Q gain imbalance I/Q phase error Carrier leakage (I/Q offset) Intermodulation distortion Amplitude/group delay distortion vs. frequency Phase noise Noise I/Q delay mismatch Transmitter Impairments Which of these impairments should be included as part of the EVM measurement? Keith Holt, Intel Corporation

  5. Propose that reference receiver estimates/corrects Carrier frequency/phase Symbol timing Gain And does not estimate/correct I/Q offset I/Q gain imbalance I/Q phase error Phase noise Intermodulation distortion I/Q delay mismatch Amplitude/phase distortion vs. frequency (I.e., no equalizer) Reference Receiver Even those impairments which are not explicitly corrected will be partially mitigated by compromise solution to optimal gain, carrier phase, etc. Keith Holt, Intel Corporation

  6. Conclusions • Should not unnecessarily complicate the transmitter design with performance metrics than don’t matter (because the receiver partly corrects them). • Definition of EVM should be more specific about measurement technique to include reference receiver detail.
