2 September 2015 Introduction The performance of OFDMA depends on both PHY and MAC, i.e., OFDMA resource unit structure, traffic and scheduling, feedback and link adaptation, and etc. This contribution addresses OFDMA performance using PHY/MAC integrated simulator Based on the new PHY structure and numerology which have been agreed in specification framework document [1] Based on three topologies Topology 1, 2 is one BSS case and Topology 3 is OBSS case (residential scenario (SS1)) [2] Suhwook Kim, LG Electronics

3 Simulation Setup: OFDMA operation
September 2015 Simulation Setup: OFDMA operation UL operation Suhwook Kim, LG Electronics

4 Simulation Setup: OFDMA operation
September 2015 Simulation Setup: OFDMA operation UL operation AP sends trigger frame by contending with AC_BE Trigger frame is transmitted by MCS 0, duplicated format in every 20 MHz channels (assuming 74 bytes long) STAs which are allocated by trigger frame send data frame MCS, transmission subband, and maximum frame length of data frame are addressed in the trigger frame If the station doesn’t have any queued data frame, it doesn’t send anything If the station doesn’t have enough data frame to fill maximum frame length, it adds padding bits to data frame STAs don’t perform CCA AP sends each BA frame in same subband with its data frame BA frame is transmitted by MCS 0 Contending of STAs is not permitted Suhwook Kim, LG Electronics

5 Simulation Setup: OFDMA operation
September 2015 Simulation Setup: OFDMA operation DL operation Suhwook Kim, LG Electronics

6 Simulation Setup: OFDMA operation
September 2015 Simulation Setup: OFDMA operation DL operation AP sends data frame by contending with AC_BE If AP doesn’t have enough data frame to 4 stations, some subband can be empty and wasted The STA in head of AP’s queue should be selected as primary destination Frame length is determined by primary destination Padding bits can be used in secondary destinations STA sends each BA frame in same subband with its data frame BA frame is transmitted by MCS 0 Suhwook Kim, LG Electronics

7 Simulation Setup: Scheduler
September 2015 Simulation Setup: Scheduler Scheduling resource Maximum allocation per one station is 1 RU 1 RU: 242-tone (total 4 RUs in 80 MHz) Two simple scheduling policy Random AP selects STAs randomly Queue length AP selects STAs in order of each queue’s length In DL case, primary destination is fixed (Head of AP’s queue) frame length is determined by A-MPDU length to primary destination (legacy spec rule) Suhwook Kim, LG Electronics

8 Random Scheduler Example UL case DL case
September 2015 Random Scheduler Example UL case AP selects four STAs randomly in STA A ~ F DL case STA B is determined as primary destination AP selects three STAs randomly in STA C, STA A, STA D, and STA E Suhwook Kim, LG Electronics

9 Queue length Scheduler
September 2015 Queue length Scheduler Example UL case AP selects STA F, E, C, A in order of each queue’s length DL case STA B is determined as primary destination AP selects STA A, E STA C or D will be selected randomly Suhwook Kim, LG Electronics
