  7. TX1 STS1 LTS1 Sig DATA1 TX2 STS2 LTS2 Sig DATA2 STS Implication of overlapped LTS • “Overlapped STS and LTS”, can be easily deployed when the number of antennas can be known during the STS time. • The proposed STS provide this ability. • Overlapped approach implies some LTS considerations for efficient MIMO channel estimation.

  8. Desired STS characteristics: • Each TX antenna should have a unique STS. • The cross-correlation of 1 STS cycle for any pair of STSs should be 0 for • Easy synchronization, • Good frequency offset estimation, and • Optimum AGC implementation. (As concluded in IEEE 802.11-04-0002r2) • STSs may be used to help distinguish the number of TX antennas.

  15. Legacy STS compatibility • The Proposed STSs take an approach analogous to that successfully used by .11G • The 11g document defines the same preambles as 11b, but venders don’t actually provide the same preambles – instead only use pure OFDM (like 11a) is used for throughput. • Similarly, The proposed STS can't be directly received by legacy STA. • Therefore the proposed STS have the same degree of backwards compatibility to 11a (as 11g does to 11b).

  16. Proposed STS advantages • The proposed STSs support overlapped LTS usage and can be used to detect any number of Tx antennas. • The required STS correlators can be cost effectively implemented • by defining STSa and STSb such that the correlator implementation cost can be much less than the cost of n separate correlators. • (e.g. STSa_I = STSb_Q, STSa_Q = STSbI)

  17. Presentation Contents • Training sequences - performance motivations (STS and LTS) • Detecting the number of Tx Antennas via STS • AGC performance of proposed STS • Proposed LTS and channel estimation techniques • Conclusions

  18. AGC performance • Generally, AGC calculates signal power over 16 FFT points (i.e. 1 STS). • The average power of the STS term should be the same as that of the average power of of the DATA term.

  19. Other candidates of new STSs • Frequency cyclic use of legacy STS • Which doesn’t have 16 FFT samples cycle (IEEE 802.11-03-999r0) • Polarity changed STS of legacy STS (IEEE 802.11-04-0087r1)

  22. Proposed STS AGC Advantages • Proposed STSs have good performance characteristics for AGC implementations. • Proposed STSs have an advantage over frequency cyclic use of legacy STS because the proposed STS is a 16 FFT points cycle. • No disadvantage results from using 6 carriers (vs. 12) for STS (for MIMO) • For 1 Tx, 12 carriers are better than 6 • For 2+ Tx, 6 carriers are better than 12 because of cross correlation advantages.

  25. Overlapped LTS usage: • LTS should be used for fine frequency offset estimation. • LTS should have good performance for MIMO channel estimation.

  26. GI21 GI22 T1,1 T2,1 T1,2 T2,2 TX1 TX2 (32) (32) (64) (64) (64) (64) Proposal for new LTS and Channel Estimation: • The Impulse response between each TX and RX antenna pair is estimated by the minimum mean square error scheme using 2 LTSs in the time domain (128 samples). • Channel at each subcarrier is obtained by FFT of the zero padded impulse response.

  27. LTS channel estimation notes • On the previous page diagram, the color differences indicate the difference in sequence. • 4 sequences are shown: T1,1 , T1,2 , T2,1 and T2,2. • where T x,y is from TX antenna “x” with LTS type “y” • There are 160 LTS FFT points each antenna (32GI + 128 original LTS). The impulse response (propagation channel) is calculated using a Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) scheme. • Using the MMSE, one can get the impulse response. • Then the impulse response is put into the FFT

  28. Channel and Frequency Offset (Df ) Estimation: • Coarse Df estimation is carried out using 3 cycles of the STS. • Phase rotation is compensated by the coarse Df estimator before the next steps. • Channel estimation is done using the 2 LTS portions (Ti,1 and Ti,2) assuming that Df = 0. • Replica of the time-domain LTS sequences with Df = 0 is calculated by the channel estimator. • Continued…

  29. Channel and Frequency Offset (Df ) Estimation: • Fine Df is estimated from the phase rotation in the LTS period using the replica. • Phase rotation is compensated again using the fine Df estimator. • Channel estimation is done again using the 2 LTS portions.
