Frame Structure Considerations for n
IEEE C802.16n-11/0005 Frame - or sub-frame – based switching? Some criteria: –Network controllable operation Avoid need for “hard wired” configurations –Suitable for all new features 1.HR-MS Forwarding 2.MS-MS communications (w or without a BS) 3.Device collaboration (optional under p) –Low latency where needed –Re-use existing designs as much as possible –Backward compatibility

IEEE C802.16n-11/0005 Conclusion Sub-frame switching is better suited for all new features One example of sub-frame switching is the RS / ARS frame structure
IEEE C802.16n-11/0005 Insert the following text (1/2) Basic frame structure The AAI frame structure is also used for the HR- MS direct communication when infrastructure isn’t present. One of the HR-MS uses the ABS and the other (P2P) or others (P2MP) use the AMS frame structure.
IEEE C802.16n-11/0005 Insert the following text (2/2) Basic frame structure supporting ARS a)The AAI ARS frame structure is also used for the HR-MS Forwarding case where the forwarding MS uses the ARS frame structure. b)The AAI ARS frame structure is also used for the MS-MS direct communication in the presence of infrastructure. One of the HR-MS uses the ARS and the other (P2P) or others (P2MP) use the AMS frame structure.
