Abstract This presentation addresses comments concerning frequency and clock tolerance, CID 375-378; 380, 382-384 Carl Kain, Noblis
Frequency and Clock Tolerance • Base standard specifies 10 ppm for both frequency and clock tolerance for 5 MHz channels • Base standard specifies 20 ppm for both frequency and clock tolerance for 10 MHz channels • TGp Draft 4.0 specifies 10 ppm for both frequency and clock tolerance for 10 MHz channels • Commenters who oppose tighter values want either rationale or are primarily are concerned with cost Carl Kain, Noblis

Discussion • Document 11-06-0878; Bob Sorrano of JHU discussed issue based on testing done on JHU campus • Conclusion was: • Results from initial testing using IEEE 802.11a devices as substitutes for 802.11p devices in a high speed environment indicated some problems could result in synching and maintaining signal lock which could be mitigated by requiring a more stringent frequency tolerance of ±10 ppm vs. the current ±20 ppm requirement that is sufficient for non-mobile and mobile platforms not required to communicate over high speeds. • Commenters have proposed an alternative • Make the 10 ppm values optional in the TGp amendment Carl Kain, Noblis
Alternative Recommendation • Recommend to make 10 ppm frequency tolerance and clock tolerance for 10 MHz BW in Clause 17 optional • Instruct the editor to make the following changes to 80211.p D4.0: • 17.3.9.4 Transmit center frequency tolerance • Insert the following statement after the first statement in 17.3.9.4: • An optional transmitted center frequency tolerance of ±10 ppm maximum for 10 MHz channels is recommended for use by a STA that has the MIB attribute dot11WAVEEnabled set to true. • 17.3.9.5 Symbol clock frequency tolerance • Insert the following statement after the first statement in 17.3.9.5: • An optional symbol clock frequency tolerance of ±10 ppm maximum for 10 MHz channels is recommended for use by a STA that has the MIB attribute dot11WAVEEnabled set to true. • Remove any PICs associated with previous “shall” statement for 10 ppm tolerance in 17.3.9.4 and 17.3.9.5 found in 802.11p D 4.0 • Moved • Second • For • Against • Abstain Carl Kain, Noblis
