Motivation for Spectral Control
May 2002 Motivation for Spectral Control Adjacent Channel Interference Number of comments in LB33 on ACI OFDM to OFDM, OFDM to CCK, CCK to OFDM Issue also raised in January 802 meeting See IEEE /043 & 044 FCC Forbidden Band Compliance A few comments in LB33 question FB compliance DOC 02/220r0 showed +20 dBm possible for OFDM This document presents some follow up to support 02/220 Steve Halford, Intersil

Adjacent Channel Interference
May 2002 Adjacent Channel Interference Interference depends on Tx spectrum & power Receiver reduces with filtering & processing 802.11a spacing is 20 MHz Mask allows for more ACI than b Need to ‘skip’ adjacent channels for adjacent AP’s ACI/ACR issue is not as critical Physical separation will reduce interference 802.11b spacing is 25 MHz Fewer channels so cannot avoid adjacent freq ACI/ACR is important issue to resolve Affects g & legacy b systems Steve Halford, Intersil

Approaches for ACI Spectral Mask… or, Adjacent Channel Rejection Test…
May 2002 Approaches for ACI Spectral Mask… TGg draft uses b for Barker/CCK & PBCC modes TGg draft uses a mask for OFDM Different spacing & number of channels provides motivation to consider a different mask? or, Adjacent Channel Rejection Test… Specifies the level of adjacent channel interference tolerated by receiver 802.11a also specifies an alternate channel rejection Spectral Mask Advantages Approach is implementation independent Protects legacy systems from interference Steve Halford, Intersil

Comparison of ACI Results
May 2002 Comparison of ACI Results Waveform Power out (dBm) ACI (dBm) ACR (dB) Limit OFDM 19.91 -12.66 32.57 .11a Mask QPSK 20.35 -19.39 39.74 .11b Mask Output power for OFDM near that of QPSK About 0.45 dB added back-off More forgiving mask of OFDM increases ACI About 6.5 dB more than current b Are changes needed to protect b? Steve Halford, Intersil
13
Solutions to reduce ACI
May 2002 Solutions to reduce ACI Could increase ACR spec for .11g Helps future g systems Doesn’t help current b radios Adopt a different spectral mask Select mask to control amount of ACI Protects legacy b networks Will reduce the total output power Steve Halford, Intersil
14
Meeting mask corners requires large back-off
May 2002 Why not use .11b mask? Suggested by several voters Shape was selected to fit single carrier Corners of mask too restrictive for OFDM Requires a back-off of 6.64 from 1 dB compression Resulting ACI is dBm (15 dB less than QPSK) Meeting mask corners requires large back-off Steve Halford, Intersil

Hansen, & others From Comment # under Clause 19 Tab IEEE DOC /209r6 “First, the transmit spectral mask of the OFDM signal should be modified such that the transmitted spectrum shall have a 0 dBr bandwidth not exceeding 18 MHz, -30 dBr at 11 MHz frequency offset, -38 dBr at 20 MHz frequency offset, and -47 dBr at 30 MHz frequency offset and above.” Steve Halford, Intersil
