Investigation of upsampling techniques for TGac Channel Model Authors: Date: 2009-05-11 Eldad Perahia, Intel Corporation
Introduction • Approach is to reuse the TGn Channel model with minor modifications [1-4] • Allows known channel model to be used • Allows a large collection of .l1n results to be compared to TGac techniques • Target: When simulating a .11n system, the chosen up-sampling technique should not alter the performance • In contiguously 10ns sampled cluster channel taps (channel B), linearly interpolation of the cluster channel tap power was simulated. • For channels with sparse sampling (channel D, E were simulated), several interpolation methods of the cluster channel tap power were investigated Eldad Perahia, Intel Corporation
Interpolation Methods • For channel model B a linearly interpolation method was used. • Each Cluster channel tap power was linearly interpolated to provide a effective channel tap spacing of 5ns. • Channel model D and E were interpolated with several techniques • In all cases the first contiguous 10ns sample cluster was linearly interpolated as in the channel B case. • The sparse taps were then interpolated with different approaches • The target was to find an interpolation method that afforded the best match to a .11n system using the TGn model Eldad Perahia, Intel Corporation
Interpolation Approaches (Channel Model D example) Case 1 • Initial set of contiguous 10ns cluster channel tap power samples linearly interpolated • Remaining sparse taps used as is (assumed to be perfect reflectors) Case 2 • Initial set of contiguous 10ns cluster channel tap power samples linearly interpolated • Remaining sparse taps linearly interpolated with a new sample place in the middle (in time) of the TGn samples Eldad Perahia, Intel Corporation
Interpolation Approaches (Channel Model D example) Cont. Case 3 • Initial set of contiguous 10ns cluster channel tap power samples linearly interpolated • Remaining sparse taps linearly interpolated with new samples placed every 5ns between TGn samples Case 4 • Initial set of contiguous 10ns cluster channel tap power samples linearly interpolated • Remaining sparse taps linearly interpolated with a new sample place 5ns after a TGn sample Eldad Perahia, Intel Corporation

Conclusion • Linearly interpolating the cluster channel tap power at 5ns for TGn channel model B provided negligible performance difference for an .11n system • Four interpolation techniques were investigated for TGn Channel model D and E • Case 2 and Case 4 resulted with a close match to .11n TGn performance • It is recommended that the approach of Case 4 be used as the method of interpolation in TGac • Provides same performance as the TGn model when simulating a .11n system • Felt to be a more intuitive channel for a higher sampling rate Eldad Perahia, Intel Corporation
