Protection of Incumbents

• First and foremost requirement is protection of incumbent services– Broadcast TV– Part 74 Subpart H Low Power Auxiliary Stations (i.e., wireless

microphones)

• Database and location techniques are not part of this interoperability standard

• Mechanisms for incumbent awareness and avoidance are built into the MAC and PHY– Distributed spectrum sensing– Quiet period and fast/fine sensing management– Measurements and clustering– Detection algorithms– Spectrum management

Protection of Incumbents

• Protection of incumbents is the overarching requirement and so deserves priority in the presentation

• However, since this protection is so inextricably woven into the system, the PHY and MAC have to be introduced as a setting for these mechanisms

• Therefore, discussion of this topic will be distributed throughout the presentation

Sensing

• Proposed methods still remain to be evaluated and compared (Tiger Team)

• Several techniques were introduced at previous meetings and have been included in the PHY spec in section 8.8– Energy detection (full bandwidth or pilot)

– Multi-resolution spectrum sensing and Analog auto correlation

– PN511 or PN63 sequence detection

– Segment sync detector

– Cyclostationary feature detection

– Spectral correlation

– Optimal radiometer

• Primary waveforms are DTV and analog FM for wireless microphones– 802.22 TG1 beacon in MAC Section 6.21.1.7.x

– More on this later

Network Entry and Initialization

• BS initialization…– Consult TV usage database and regional WRAN information

database to identify candidate channels– Perform sensing to confirm vacancy of channels– Establish operation on a vacant channel

• The CPE will…– Scan a previous list of candidate channels or all downstream

channels until it finds a valid downstream signal– After acquiring the SCH, sense on all relevant channels

surrounding operating channel– Obtain upstream and downstream parameters and perform initial

ranging

• See sections 6.15.1+

May 2006

doc.: IEEE 802.22-06/0069r0

Network Entry and Initialization

• The CPE needs to be sure that its communications will not cause harmful interference before it first transmits

• If a CPE inside of a protected contour can both detect the incumbent and synchronize to the co-channel BS, it will not associate with the BS

• However, if allowed it may send a short message to alert the BS to the presence of the incumbent

• See section 6.15

May 2006

doc.: IEEE 802.22-06/0069r0

Ranging

• Downstream management– If CPE CINR falls below the range required for the specified burst

profile, the CPE requests transition to a new burst profile

– See section 6.17.1

• Upstream management– Consists of two procedures:

• Initial ranging allows a CPE to join a network and acquire correct Tx parameters

• Periodic ranging allows the CPE to maintain upstream communications

– For periodic ranging, timers must be maintained for each channel in DFH operation

– The algorithm is described in section 6.17.2

May 2006

doc.: IEEE 802.22-06/0069r0

• The service model is similar to that specified in 802.16

• The primary purpose is to define transmission ordering and scheduling over the air interface

• Packets traversing the MAC interface are associated into a service flow as identified by the connection identifier (CID)

• A service flow is characterized by a set of parameters such as latency, jitter, and throughput assurances

• See section 6.20.x

Dynamic Frequency Hopping• An optional feature when the number of vacant channels exceeds

the number of neighboring BSs

• Avoids inband quiet periods and interruptions to service by hopping to other vacant channels for operation while sensing is performed on the previously occupied channels and other channels

Incumbent Coexistence

• See section 6.21.1.4.x

• A comprehensive set of measurement and spectrum management commands is available

• Urgent coexistence situations can be reported through fields in the MAC header or through the UCS slots

• Sensing can be in-band (where quiet periods are required) and out-of-band (no quiet period required)

• In-band incumbent detection can take place during two phases– Quiet Periods; and

– Normal System Operation (e.g., opportunistic in-band sensing)

Incumbent Coexistence

• During Quiet Period Notification Phase– BS limits its downstream traffic so that ample time is allocated for CPEs

to report

– The BS indicates this to the CPEs through the MDP (measurement data preferred) field in the US-MAP

– CPEs with allocated BW that did not detect the incumbent can still use the US to transmit data

– Unresponsive CPEs are pursued to determine the source of the problem

– Only CPEs without US BW should use the UCS slots

• During Normal System Operation– CPEs with allocated BW send a BLM-REP (bulk measurement report)

with priority over other pending traffic

– If there’s insufficient BW, the CPE may use fields in the MAC header

– CPEs without allocated BW use UCS slots

Incumbent Detection Recovery

• To recover from an UCS, protocols are needed that enable the network to restore normal operation

• Backup channels are relied upon to quickly re-establish communications– Backup channels should be completely disjoint from the affected

channel to minimize the probability that the backup channel is also impaired

• In the event that no vacant channels remain, CPEs periodically monitor the status of a channel and inform the BS via the MAC header fields if the channel becomes available again

• See section 6.21.5.x

Class B CPE for Part 74 Protection

• 802.22 TG1 is currently preparing to address enhanced protection mechanisms for hard-to-detect Part 74 low power auxiliary devices

• One possible method is to use a special class (class B) CPE as a beacon

• This CPE is initially tuned to the desired channel of Part 74 operation

• If no SCH are detected after a timeout, the channel is assumed unoccupied by WRANs– But it will continue to search for SCH during normal operation

• If SCH are detected, the QP info is used to build a QP map for all area WRANs to find QP opportunities

• Beacons are transmitted during the best QPs to maximize detection

• See section 6.21.1.7.x

Hidden Incumbent Systems

• If a CPE cannot detect the BS due to strong interference from an incumbent, a “hidden incumbent” situation results – See section 6.16.4

• The BS can remedy this situation by periodically broadcasting out-band signaling on other vacant channels

• The CPE can respond on one of these channels and alert the BS to the hidden incumbent situation

• The BS responds to the alert by changing the operating channel

Quiet Period Management for Sensing

• Sensing is a two-stage process– Stage 1: Fast sensing

– Stage 2: Only if needed, perform fine sensing

• The fast sensing is performed in-band only

• Based on the fast sensing outcome, BS determines the need for the next fine sensing and the required time

• The synchronization of overlapping BSs makes this scheme highly reliable

Opportunistic In-band Sensing

• Use common “sensing-eligible” frames to do in-band sensing

• A “sensing-eligible” frame is:– A frame with no traffic, i.e. no US or DS traffic

– A frame at which the backlogged traffic (both US and DS) is less than the remaining capacity in the current superframe and no sensing frame has been allocated in the superframe

– The last frame of the superframe and no sensing frame has been allocated in the superframe

• A “sensing-eligible” frame is designated as a sensing frame if it is not marked for use for out-of-band sensing

Distributed Quiet Period

• When multiple CPEs are operating on different aggregate channels, a hidden node can result if the CPEs only sense on their active channel

• Meanwhile the BS is broadcasting on all aggregated channels and interference to the incumbent results

May 2006

doc.: IEEE 802.22-06/0069r0

Distributed Quiet Period

• This situation can be remedied by distributing the quiet period

• Each channel is interrupted only once using DQP, while simultaneous QP would require 3x interruption in this example

• See section 6.16.7.1

Self-Coexistence

• CMAC addresses self-coexistence amongst overlapping cells in two mandatory ways:– BS beacon (i.e., SCH) based– The Coexistence Beacon Protocol (CBP), which enables:

• Sharing in time and frequency• Dynamic resource offering and renting• Etiquette for channel assignment

• CBP follows a best effort model that:– Allows for direct BS-to-BS communication and communication via CPEs– The overlapping BSs synchronization mechanism makes it highly reliable– Can be implemented either over-the-air or via a backbone– Allow either one-way or two-way (i.e., negotiation) communication

• The CBP packet consists of a preamble (different than the superframe preamble) followed by the SCH with the CT (content type) field set and a CBP MAC PDU

Spectrum Contention

• Three options are described

• Spectrum Renting/Offering (Sec. 6.21.2.3.1)– Offerers share active and candidate channel sets with potential

renter

– Renter chooses from union of neighbor’s candidate channels and informs neighbors of choice and required rental time

• Credit Tokens (Sec. 6.21.2.3.5)– Neighboring BSs trying to share a resource negotiate rental fees

using psuedo-monetary credit tokens from an initial reserve

– By sharing resources, a BS can accumulate tokens to build up its reserve for future rentals (incentive for sharing)

Spectrum Contention• On-Demand Spectrum Contention (Sec. 6.21.2.3.4)• Negotiation based distributed spectrum sharing mechanism• Contention number exchange and comparison• Iteratively driven by internal or external demands for spectrum sharing • Allow different contention strategies and flexible strategy adaptation

Channel Switch Procedure

• WRAN system builds a candidate channel list using distributed sensing• When incumbent users and other WRAN systems are detected in the current

operating channel, – The BS selects a channel CHselect from the candidate channel list, either randomly or based on

some algorithms– Randomly selects a wait time twait from a time window [ Tmin, Tmax ]– Starts a wait timer with Twait as the expiration time– Advertises the channel selection using a backhaul channel or WRAN air interface before

jumping to CHselect

• Meanwhile the WRAN system senses CHselect for incumbent signals and other WRAN systems

– If the channel CHselect is still idle/available, it jumps to CHselect when the wait timer expires – If incumbent signals or other WRAN systems exist in CHselect , it goes back to the beginning

to select another channel from the candidate channel list or its previously operated channel if occupied by incumbent users

• If collision occurs after channel switch, it increase tmax and goes back to the beginning to select another channel from the candidate channel list or its previously operated channel if not occupied by incumbent users

– Otherwise, it decreases Tmax and removes CHselect from the candidate channel list

MAC Adaptive Antenna System (AAS) Support

• Frame structure simultaneously supports AAS and non-AAS traffic

• CPE uses preamble for downstream sync

• Network entry and initialization– CPE decodes FCH if able

– Alternatively, BS can reserve portion of superframe as initial ranging/contention slots

• Channel state via reciprocity or feedback– MAC control messages

– Piggyback on existing measurement reports

CPE Maximum Transmit Power Control (TPC)

• CPE can operate co- or adjacent channel provided it is outside of the protected contour

• On other channels surrounding a TV channel, a CPE must abide by TPC defined by an EIRP profile

• All active TV channels in the area within ±15 channels will contribute to the profile

• Flowcharts and examples are shown in 6.13.5.x
