CX-CBP General features March 2009 CX-CBP General features Equal operational time assigned to each technology 10ms for each CXCBI and CXCSBI Operation during CXCBI Scheduled transmit opportunities Listen-before-talk Contention window and quiet periods Longer slots are defined for 802.16h as compared with 802.11y Priority is given to 802.11y Logarithmic back-off Alvarion

Synchronization CX-Frame is synchronized with GPS-like time source March 2009 Synchronization CX-Frame is synchronized with GPS-like time source 802.16h-based systems are using CXSBI in a synchronized mode Sync of 802.11y with CXCBI is not mandated Two operational modes Sync. CX-CBP The 802.11 AP limits the 802.11y operation to CXCBI See Annex in “Parameters for simulation of Wireless Coexistence in the US 3.65GHz band” document Un-sync. CX-CBP No limitation is imposed Alvarion

March 2009 Parameters Based on: IEEE 802.19-07/11r16, Parameters for simulation of Wireless Coexistence in the US 3.65GHz band Scenario A “Outdoor-to-outdoor” Scenario C “Outdoor-to-indoor” Offered load for each system: In order to find the maximal capacity for each system, simulations were performed in no-interference state, and overloading each system. The maximum throughputs derived were (for 5 MHz channel): Scenario A 802.16 DL: 7.2 Mbps 802.16 UL: 4 Mbps 802.11 overall: 8 Mbps Scenario C 802.16 DL: 2.4 Mbps 802.16 UL: 2.2 Mbps 802.11 overall: 3.1 Mbps Alvarion

March 2009 Parameters (cont.) The offered load in the interference simulation for each system was based on these relations between the maximum achievable loads, modified according to the required total load For scenario C, the mandatory load of 9.6 Mbps is more than 100% of the achievable load (7.7 Mbps) Alvarion
