Overview of DS-UWB Proposal
• One of the goals of Merged Proposal #2 is DS-UWB and MB-OFDM harmonization & interoperability through a Common Signaling Mode (CSM)– High rate modes using either DS-UWB or MB-OFDM
• Best characteristics of both approaches with most flexibility
• A piconet could have a pair of DS and a pair of MB devices
– CSM waveform provides control & interoperation between DS-UWB and MB-OFDM
• All devices work through an 802.15.3 MAC– User/device only sees common MAC interface – Hides the actual PHY waveform in use

The Common Signaling Mode:What Is The Goal?
• The common signaling mode (CSM) allows the 802.15.3 MAC to arbitrate between multiple UWB PHYs– It is an “etiquette” to manage peaceful coexistence between the
different UWB PHYs– Multiple UWB PHYs will exist in the world
• DS-UWB & MB-OFDM are first examples
– CSM improves the case for international regulatory approval• Common control mechanism for a multitude of applications• Planned cooperation (i.e. CSM) gives far better QoS and throughput
than allowing un-coordinated operation and interference
– CSM provides flexibility/extensibility within the IEEE standard• Allows future growth & scalability• Provides options to meet diverse application needs• Enables interoperability and controls interference

CSM Specifics• We have designed a specific waveform for the CSM
– BPSK modulation for simple and reliable performance– Length 24 spreading codes using 442 MHz chip rate– Harmonically related center frequency of 3978 MHz– Rate ½ convolutional code with k=6– Provides 9.2 Mbps throughput
• Extendable up to 110 Mbps using variable code and FEC rates
• 802.15.3 MAC works great with CSM– CSM can be used for control and beaconing– Negligible impact on piconet throughput (beacons are <1%)
• Requires negligible additional cost/complexity for either radio– MB-OFDM already has a DS mode that is used for synchronization
• This proposal is based on DS-UWB operating with a 26 MHz cell-phone crystal– Very low cost yet terrific phase-noise and accuracy (see GSM spec)

DS-UWB Architecture Is Highly Scaleable
• DS-UWB provides low & scalable receiver complexity– ADC can range from 3 bits to 1 bit for super-low power implementation– Rake pipeline & DFE can be optimized to trade off power & cost in
multipath• 16 fingers @ 220, 5 fingers @ 500, 2 fingers @ 1326Mbps• Time duration of DFE scales (shrinks) at shorter range – higher rates.
– FEC can scale w/data rate (k=6 & k=4) or be turned-off for ultra low power– DFE effectiveness and simplicity proven in shipping chips – 3% of area

UWB System Complexity & Power Consumption
• Two primary factors drive complexity & power consumption– Processing needed to compensate for multipath channel– Modulation requirements (e.g. low-order versus high-order)
• DS-UWB designed to operate with simple BPSK modulation for all rates – Receiver functions operate at the symbol rate– Optional 4-BOK has same complexity and BER performance
• MB-OFDM operates at fixed 640 Mbps (raw)– Designed to operate at high rate, then use carrier diversity
(redundancy) and/or strong FEC to combat multipath fading– Diversity not used above 200 Mbps

Fundamental Design Approach Differences
• Signal bandwidth leads to different operating regimes– DS-UWB uses 1.326 GHz bandwidth
– MB-OFDM data BW is 412.5 MHz (100 tones x 4.125 MHz/tone)
• Modulation bandwidth induces different fading statistics– DS-UWB (single carrier UWB) results in frequency-selective fading
with relatively low power fluctuation (variance)
– MB-OFDM (multi-carrier) creates a bank of parallel channels that experience flat fading with a Rayleigh distribution (deep fades)
• Motivations for different choices– Different energy capture mechanism (rake vs. FFT)
– Different ISI compensation (time vs. frequency domain EQ)
• These fundamental differences affect both complexity & flexibility– Significant impact on implementation, especially at high rates

Implications of Switchable UNII Filter(slide copied from Doc 03/141r3,p12)
• MB-OFDM is proposed to use the UNII band for Band Group 2 • If the operating BW includes the U-NII band, then interference
mitigation strategies have to be included in the receiver design to prevent analog front-end saturation.
• Example: Switchable filter architecture.– When no U-NII interference is present, use standard pre-select filter.– When U-NII interference is present, pass the receive signal through a
different filter (notch filter) that suppresses the entire U-NII band.

Band-Select Filter Complexity
MB-OFDM filter complexity depends on requirements to rejectadjacent-band signal energy
• Depends on whether design is using the guard tones for real data or just PN modulated noise

MB-OFDM Band-Select Filter Complexity• If guard tones are used for
useful data, band filter must have very steep cut-off– Transition region is very narrow– Only 5 un-modulated tones
between bands (~21 MHz)
• SOP performance also affected by filter design – rejection of adjacent band MAI for SOP
• If guard tones not used for data, then filter constraint is relaxed – Transition region is a wider (15
tones ~62 MHz)– Energy in guard band is
distorted (not useful)– May not meet FCC UWB
requirement for 500 MHz

Comparison of DS-UWB to MB-OFDM Digital Baseband Complexity for PHY
• Gate count estimates are based on MB-OFDM proposal team methodology detailed in IEEE Document 03/449r2– Gate counts converted to common clock (85.5 MHz) for comparison
• Explicit MB-OFDM gates counts have only been reported by proposers for a 110/200 Mbps implementation– Other estimates of MB-OFDM Viterbi decoder and FFT engine are
provided in IEEE Document 03/343r0• Estimates for MB-OFDM 480 Mbps mode complexity are based
on scaling of FFT engine, equalizer and Viterbi decoder– MB-OFDM estimates of 480 Mbps power available in 03/268r3– Details available in IEEE Document 04/164r0
• Estimates for MB-OFDM 960 Mbps mode details are based on linear scaling of decoder and FFT engine to 960 Mbps– Assumes 6-bit ADC for 16-QAM operation

DS-UWB Uses RAKE Receiver with EqualizerFor Optimum Energy Capture and BER
• Use of RAKE is flexible – in receiver, not transmitter
– Short range (CM-1) does not need RAKE -- only 4 dB loss from ideal
– No-Rake DS is less power & outperforms MB-OFDM (by 2 dB at 480 Mbps)
– Media Server can use 16-finger RAKE and capture all but 1 dB of available energy in CM-3 – Very high performance

Conclusions• Our vision: A single PHY with multiple modes to
provide a complete solution for TG3a– Base mode that is required in all devices, used for control
signaling: “CSM” for beacons and control signaling– Higher rate modes also required to support 110 & 200+ Mbps:– Compliant device can implement either DS-UWB or MB-
OFDM (or both)
• Increases options for innovation and regulatory flexibility to better address all applications and markets
• DS-UWB is shown to have equal or better performance to MB-OFDM in all modes and multipath conditions – for a fraction of the complexity & power

All-Digital Architecture DS-UWB Receiver
• DS-UWB Digital architecture provides scalable receiver complexity
– ADC can range from 3 bits to 1 bit for super-low power implementation
– Rake & DFE can be optimized to trade off power & cost in multipath
– FEC can scale data rate or be turned-off for low power operation
– DFE effectiveness and simplicity proven in shipping chips

Scalability to Varying Multipath Conditions• Critical for handheld (battery operated) devices
– Support operation in severe channel conditions, but also…– Ability to use less processing (& battery power) in less severe environments
• Multipath conditions determine the processing required for acceptable performance
– Collection of time-dispersed signal energy (using either FFT or rake processing)– Forward error correction decoding & Signal equalization
• Poor: receiver always operates using worst-case assumptions for multipath – Performs far more processing than necessary when conditions are less severe – Likely unable to provide low-power operation at high data rates (500-1000+ Mbps)
• DS-UWB device– Energy capture (rake) and equalization are performed at symbol rate – Processing in receiver can be scaled to match existing multipath conditions
• MB-OFDM device– Always requires full FFT computation – regardless of multipath conditions– Channel fading has Rayleigh distribution – even in very short channels– CP length is chosen at design time, fixed at 60 ns, regardless of actual multipath

Interference Issues (1)
• Hopped versus non-hopped signal characteristics– ITS and FCC studies are underway
• Goal is to see if interference characteristics of MB-OFDM are acceptable for certification (using DS-UWB/noise/IR for comparison)
• Use of PN-modulation to meet 500 MHz BW– Recent statements by NTIA emphasize importance of minimum – Desire is to ensure protection for restricted bands– DS-UWB bandwidth is determined by pulse shape and pulse
modulation• Spectrum exceeds 1500 MHz
– MB-OFDM bandwidth for data and pilot tones is 466 MHz, guard tones are used to increase bandwidth to 507 MHz• Guard tones “carry no useful information”, only to meet BW req’t. • See authors statements in 802.15-03/267r1 (July 2003, page 12)

NTIA Comments on Using Noise to meet FCC 500 MHz BW Requirement
• NTIA comments specifically on the possibility that manufacturer would intentionally add noise to a signal in order to meet the minimum FCC UBW 500 MHz bandwidth requirements:
“Furthermore, the intentional addition of unnecessary noise to a signal would violate the Commission’s long-standing rules that devices be constructed in accordance with good engineering design and manufacturing practice.”
• And: – “It is NTIA’s opinion that a device where noise is intentionally injected
into the signal should never be certified by the Commission.”

FCC Rules Regarding Unnecessary Emissions
• FCC Rules in 47 CFR Part 15 to which NTIA refers:
Ҥ 15.15 General technical requirements.
(a) An intentional or unintentional radiator shall be constructed in accordance with good engineering design and manufacturing practice. Emanations from the device shall be suppressed as much as practicable, but in no case shall the emanations exceed the levels specified in these rules.”
