  2. 08/07/2010 Background • A specific OFDM pilot scheme has been proposed for 802.15.4g • This document seeks to estimate the limits of the channel disturbances that can be successfully tracked using the proposed pilot scheme • Decision directed tracking is not considered at this time. • Knowing these limitations should inform any discussion about the merits of the existing scheme.

  7. 08/07/2010 Rate of change of channel • If the channel is quasi-stationary over 9 OFDM symbols, the additional frequency domain samples can be “safely” used without additional processing. • Assume we will allow 6 of rotation over 9 x 120us, time allowed for full rotation is 360/6 * 9 * 120 = 64.8ms  Fdmax <= 23Hz. • This could be considered the approximate limit for zero-order hold interpolation. • To get higher Doppler tolerance, sophisticated 2-dimensional interpolation is required over the time and frequency, preferably using Weiner filtering. Slide 7

  8. 08/07/2010 Conclusions • For delay spreads exceeding 3.5 ms, more than one pilot tone set must be incorporated in the estimation to avoid under-sampling. • When all 3 sets of pilot tones are used, the upper limit of delay spread tolerance is approximately 9.6 ms. • Simple zero-order interpolation in the time domain will not suffice in the presence of Doppler reflectors moving at typical automotive speeds. • A 2-dimensional interpolator using Weiner estimation in both time and frequency dimensions has the potential to yield sufficiently robust channel estimation to both Doppler and Delay spread effects. • Detailed simulations are recommended to evaluate the performance limitations of such interpolation schemes beyond the first-order limitations shown here.
