Motivation Buffer management is necessary to accommodate packet dropped on receiver side –Aggressive HARQ transmission releases buffer constraint from receiver side –HARQ entity can boost transmission rate beyond HARQ buffer capability –Receiver may not store the HARQ burst when buffer is full –Packet is dropped due to buffer outage –It further introduces HARQ failure and makes HARQ performance unpredicatible This contribution introduces tri-state HARQ feedback to maintain the reliable HARQ performance
Proposed Mechanism Tri-state HARQ mechanism –If decoded data is correct, MS feedbacks ACK –If decoded data is incorrect and the redundancy version can be stored in the HARQ buffer, MS feedbacks NACK –If decoded data is incorrect and redundancy version can not be stored in the HARQ buffer, MS feedbacks DROP –BS will retransmit the dropped packet when DROP is received, otherwise, BS will follow existing HARQ mechanism
Simulation Environments Three mechanisms are compared –Tri-State HARQ feedback –Two-State HARQ feedback with buffer constraint –Two-State HARQ feedback without buffer constraint Simulation Environments –HARQ burst = 600 bytes –Maximum 8 HARQ processes –Maximum 4 successful transmissions –HARQ buffer ranges from 10K~80K soft bits –Round trip delay=20ms –Peak rate= 1.92Mbps –No feedback error –PB 3km/hr, VA 30km/hr and 120km/hr –Aggregation buffer is applied
IR-HARQ with PB 3km/hr No CQI Report Error Transmission rate increases by 2~8 times for tri-state HARQ mechanism and two-state HARQ mechanism without buffer constraint Tri-state HARQ mechanism further provides throughput gain when buffer is insufficient Two-state HARQ mechanism introduces large HARQ failure rate when Buffer is insufficient
IR-HARQ with VA 30km/hr No CQI Report Error Transmission rate increases by 2~8 times for tri-state HARQ mechanism and Tri-state HARQ mechanism further provides throughput gain 30~80% throughput gain when HARQ buffer is below 20K soft bits Two-state HARQ mechanism introduces large HARQ failure rate when HARQ buffer is below than 60K soft bits
IR-HARQ with VA 120km/hr No CQI Report Error Transmission rate increases by 2~8 times for tri-state HARQ mechanism and Tri-state HARQ mechanism further provides throughput gain 30~80% throughput gain when HARQ buffer is below 20K soft bits Two-state HARQ mechanism introduces large HARQ failure rate when HARQ buffer is below than 60K soft bits
Conclusions Tri-State HARQ mechanism guarantees HARQ reliability even there is package drop due to buffer overflow Tri-State HARQ mechanism can boosts throughput by 5~8 times Tri-State HARQ mechanism is recommended to adopted to 16m to increase transmission rate with buffer constraint Recommend to adopt the proposed text #1 in C802.16m-09/0894r1 Recommend to adopt the proposed text #2 in C802.16m-09/0894r1 Recommend to adopt the proposed text #3 in C802.16m-09/0894r1 Recommend to adopt the proposed text #4 in C802.16m-09/0894r1 Recommend to adopt the proposed text #5 in C802.16m-09/0894r1
