doc.: IEEE /0713r1 Submission Abstract This is a submission for comment resolution on D0.01 for comment #144. This submission provides a low power 1- bit-sampling idle listening mechanism for 11aj to reduce the power consumption. The low power idle listening mechanism keeps backward compatibility with DMG devices. Slide 2 May 2014 Bo Gao, Tsinghua University

doc.: IEEE /0713r1 Submission Comment #144 In 60-GHz systems, the power consumption of idle listening is considerable, due to power-hungery multi-Gbps ADC. The packet detection with low-power lower-sampling-precision ADC is useful method to remedy the power of idle listening. Thus, the preamble settings (e.g., the number of Ga128/Gb128) need to consider the performance loss due to the reduction of sampling precision. Resolution ： This submission provides a low power idle listening mechanism using 1-bit sampling to reduce the power consumption. The length of preamble is added based on the performance requirements.

doc.: IEEE /0713r1 Submission Power Consumption in Idle Listening Power consumption of idle listening is up to hundreds of milliwatts (mW) due to power-hungry ultra-high-speed ADC and analog RF chain. This problem may block 60-GHz WLAN (11aj) from being extensively used in battery-supply devices, such as smart phones, ipads. Slide 4 −A natural way to reduce the power consumption is sleeping schedule. By exploiting the power-saving mode (PSM) in standard, wireless stations (STAs) hibernate standby unless they expect to receive or intend to transmit packets. −However, the PSM mechanism only reduce energy dissipation of STAs instead of a AP/PCP, which may be a power-sensitive portable device in 60-GHz WLAN.

doc.: IEEE /0713r1 Submission Idle Listening Using 1-Bit Sampling Since the power consumption of an ADC is exponential to its bit depth, we propose a low power idle listening mechanism using 1-bit ADC, which is summarized as follows: Slide 5 −A 1/M-bit-sampling receiver is proposed in Fig. 1. −The receiver uses an ultra-low-power 1- bit ADC to detect packets during idle listening period. Once the arrival of a packet is successfully detected, the receiver switches to the original multi-bit, i.e., M-bit, ADC to demodulate information data normally. −By using this receiver, the energy dissipation of IL is efficiently reduced, while the demodulation performance is maintained.

doc.: IEEE /0713r1 Submission Detection Performance Evaluation Using 1- Bit Sampling Since the sampling quantization of ADC is reduced from full- precision to 1-bit, the receiver is confronted with the degradation of packet detection. In 60-GHz LOS channel, we evaluate the detection performance of the receiver with 4×4 phase arrays. Slide 6 −The performance evaluation is illustrated in Fig. 1, where the probability of false-alarm is and the received SNR is -8 dB. −In order to remedy the degradation induced by the reduction of the sampling precision, the lower power mechanism needs about 120 assisted symbols more than the conventional mechanism in the basically same detection performance. That is, one Ga128/Gb128 sequence more. Bo Gao, Tsinghua University Fig.1. Detection performance evaluation May 2014

doc.: IEEE /0713r1 Submission Preamble Modification in aj Two Ga128/Gb128 is added in the beginning of preamble. One Ga128 is used to remedy the performance degradation; the other Ga128 is used to occupy the ADC switch time, which can be limited to less than 100 ns.

doc.: IEEE /0713r1 Submission Preamble Modification in aj One Ga128/Gb128 is used to remedy the performance degradation induced by the reduction of sampling precision. In 60-GHz Los channel, we evaluate the detection performance of the receiver with 4×4 phase arrays. Slide 8 −The performance evaluation is illustrated in Fig. 1, where the conventional idle listening with full sampling precision uses two Ga128/Gb128 sequences, and the idle listening with 1-bit sampling uses three Ga128/Gb128. −The stimulated curves for the two situation are basically the same, which means that the degradation has been remedied by appending one Ga128/Gb128 sequence.

doc.: IEEE /0713r1 Submission Power Saving The power consumption of idle listening with 1-bit sampling is compared with that of conventional idle listening. Based on Refs [3, 4, 5], suppose that the overall power consumption of a receive RF chain with a 4 × 4 planner phased array is 0.3 W. Besides, the sampling frequency f s = 1.5 Gsps, and the conversion efficiency C adc = 0.47 pJ/conv.
