  2. Staccato CommunicationsUWB PHY Proposal for TG4a Roberto Aiello, Ph.D. Torbjorn Larsson, Ph.D. Staccato Communications r@staccatocommunications.com Roberto Aiello, Staccato Communications

  3. Goals • Good use of UWB unlicensed spectrum • Good system design • Path to low complexity CMOS design • Path to low power consumption • Scalable to future standards • Graceful co-existence with other services • Graceful co-existence with other UWB systems Roberto Aiello, Staccato Communications

  4. Introduction • Staccato is MBOA’s founding member, promoter BOD member • This proposal is based on band limited impulse radio • OFDM is optimal solution for high performance systems • Impulse radio has attractive features for 15.4a applications Roberto Aiello, Staccato Communications

  5. Features • Meets all system requirements • Low signal repetition frequency to reduce ICI/ISI and need for high speed digital circuits (lower power consumption) • “Narrow” UWB bandwidth to reduce complexity • Use of differential encoding on chip level to reduce receiver complexity and provide maximum robustness Roberto Aiello, Staccato Communications

  6. Summary • Band limited UWB system compliant with FCC 02-48, UWB Report & Order • 500MHz bandwidth at -10dB • Two bands centered at 4.752 GHz and 5.252 GHz (MB-OFDM band 4 and 5) • Symbol rates varying from 12.5 kbps to 1.6 Mbps at PHY-SAP • Due to time constraints, this presentation addresses • Modulation scheme, channelization and packet structure • Performance in AWGN • Remaining material will be presented at the next opportunity in March 2005 • Performance in multipath • Implementation feasibility • Self evaluation criteria • Other issues that will emerge from group’s feedback Roberto Aiello, Staccato Communications

  7. Multipath CM8 (Industrial NLOS) PRF = 3.2 MHz Roberto Aiello, Staccato Communications

  8. System Description PRF = 3.2 MHz Roberto Aiello, Staccato Communications

  9. System Description, Continued • Impulse radio combined with direct-sequence spreading • Differential BPSK modulation of chips • A code word covers one BPSK-modulated symbol • Different piconets use different code words • Differential encoding of chips allows the use of differential chip detection in the receiver • Differential detection is carried out separately for each multipath component • Differential combining of multipath components • No need for channel estimation • Simple receiver structure with decent performance Roberto Aiello, Staccato Communications

  10. System Description, Continued • For improved performance, non-coherent symbol detection (with coherent energy integration across one code word) can be used • Symbol detection is carried out separately for each multipath component • Non-coherent combining of multipath components • Still no need for channel estimation • PRF (chip rate): 3.2 MHz • Low enough to avoid interchip interference (ICI) with all 802.15.4a multipath models • High enough to eliminate the need for frequency offset correction (with some performance loss) when differential detection is used • Pulse shape: 3rd-order Butterworth or similar • FEC: 16-state rate-1/2 convolutional code and symbol repetition Roberto Aiello, Staccato Communications

  11. Differential Multipath Combining Roberto Aiello, Staccato Communications

  12. System Parameters PHR = PHY Header; PSDU = PHY Service Data Unit; SFD = Start-of-Frame Delimiter • Length of spreading code in preamble is always 16 • Duty cycle < 100% means that code words of length 16 are transmitted with a space in between • An extra initial chip is added to serve as phase reference for the first chip in the code word • For instance, to achieve a duty cycle of approximately 50%, 17 chips are transmitted followed by a space equivalent to 15 chip periods Roberto Aiello, Staccato Communications

  13. Packet Structure Roberto Aiello, Staccato Communications

  14. Spreading Codes (Length 16) -1    -1     1    -1    -1     1    -1     1    -1    -1    -1     1     1     1     1     1 -1     1    -1     1    -1    -1     1     1    -1    -1    -1    -1     1     1     1     1  -1     1     1    -1     1    -1    -1    -1    -1    -1     1     1     1    -1     1     1 -1    -1    -1    -1    -1     1     1     1     1    -1     1     1    -1     1    -1     1 These code words (c) were found by exhaustive search based on the three following properties: • Low cyclic autocorrelation • Low cyclic cross-correlation between code words c • Low cross-correlation between code words (1,c) and (1,-c) Roberto Aiello, Staccato Communications

  15. Throughput • The length of the data PSDU (payload) is 32 octets. The data rate is 100 kbps (this is X0 in this proposal) • Assumptions (refer to the figure on page 20 in the PHY selection criteria document) • aMinLIFSPeriod = 40 symbol periods • aTurnaroundTime = 12 symbol periods • aUnitBackoffPeriod = 20 symbol periods • Length of ACK PSDU = 5 octets • t_ack is the time between the end of the data frame and the beginning of the ACK frame • worst case, is t_ack = aTurnaroundTime + aUnitBackoffPeriod = 32 • best case, t_ack is t_ack = aTurnaroundTime = 12 Roberto Aiello, Staccato Communications

  16. Receiver Architectures A. Differential chip detection during both acquisition and data demodulation B. Differential chip detection during acquisition and non-coherent symbol detection during data demodulation Roberto Aiello, Staccato Communications

  17. More on Receiver Architectures • In both architectues, acquisition is based on differential detection/combining • Does not require frequency offset correction and therefore leads to shorter preamble (=> less overhead) • Small performance loss at 20 ppm frequency error • If desired, frequency offset estimation can be carried out in parallel with synchronization Architecture A • Differential chip detection for data demodulation • Frequency offset correction may still be applied during PHR and PSDU to improve performance Architecture B. • Non-coherent symbol demodulation for data demodulation • Significant performance improvement, since we are now summing energy coherently across a whole codeword (which for data rates <= 100 kbps is 16 chips long) • Requires frequency offset estimation (during acquisition) and correction (during data demodulation) Roberto Aiello, Staccato Communications

  18. Link Budget Roberto Aiello, Staccato Communications

  19. System Simulation Parameters • Frequency band: 4.752GHz (MB-OFDM band 4) • 10 dB bandwidth: 500 MHz • Transmit power: -16.1 dBm • Transmit/Receive filter: 3rd order Butterworth, corner frequency 180 kHz • A/D converter: 528 MHz, 3 bits • Noise figure: 7 dB • Data rate: 100 kbps • PSDU size: 32 bytes • PRF (chip rate): 3.2 MHz • Length of DS spreading code: 16 • Length of preamble: 48 bits • Length of SFD: 32 bits • Length of PHR: 48 bits • Modulation: DBPSK • Demodulation method: differential detection • No frequency offset Roberto Aiello, Staccato Communications
