doc.: IEEE /232r0 Submission March 2002 Todor Cooklev, AwareSlide 2 Extended Data Rate a There is a clear market demand for a higher data rate: –There are products and proprietary technologies that achieve a higher data rate; –The gap between wireless LAN and Ethernet is increasing with the latest Ethernet PHYs.
doc.: IEEE /232r0 Submission March 2002 Todor Cooklev, AwareSlide 3 Bit-loading Bit Loading is the process of modulating a different number of bits on each carrier based on the SNR of the carriers a uses the simplest form of bit-loading – equal number of bits per carrier. Equal number of bits per carrier is poorly suited to the characteristics of a multipath channel
doc.: IEEE /232r0 Submission March 2002 Todor Cooklev, AwareSlide 4 Bit loading Bit loading requires a feedback from the receiver to the transmitter The communication from the receiver to the transmitter must happen faster than channel changes
doc.: IEEE /232r0 Submission March 2002 Todor Cooklev, AwareSlide 5 Trellis-coded modulation (TCM) TCM combines coding and modulation functions to provide improved performance Coded modulation schemes do not encode all information bits and therefore must be combined with bit loading Coded modulation schemes (such as TCM) will typically outperform convolutionally encoded systems such as those used in a (especially with large constellations size)
