384.2 Coexistence with Existing Narrowband System
- IEEE 802.11a is the strongest narrowband
interferer - Soft-Spectrum coexistence way
- Do not use interfered bands for coexistence with
IEEE 802.11a WLAN devices - ? Channel allocation can be freely, dynamically
assigned depending on channel monitoring results
and regional regulations
39Coexistence Strategies
- ? Soft-Spectrum coexistence
- Pre-configure device (through software control)
not to use a particular band, based on various
geographic region and device usage - Allow device to detect presence of NBI and avoid
- Device interoperability functions could specify
detection requirements to ensure adequate control - ? UWB power emitted into 802.11a bands and 4.9
GHz WLAN band in Japan - Avoiding 5.25 GHz (5.8 GHz) band for lower
(upper) UNII band coexistence - Avoiding 4.7 GHz band (4.975 GHz using frequency
offset channels)
404.3 Multipath Mitigation Techniques and
Performance ? Soft-Spectrum Adaptation Scheme
in AWGN and Multipath Fading Environment
41Soft-Spectrum Immunity in Multipath Fading
Environment
- Decrease inter-pulse interference (ISI) by
employing adaptive Guard-Interval - Decrease multipath fading effects by choosing
suitable Soft-Spectrum waveforms - Use baseband Pre- and Post-Rake receiver based
on designing suitable intra-pulse waveform - Continuous channel measurements are good for
changing multipath environment

515. Implementation Feasibility
- ? Soft-Spectrum adaptation scheme has many
features designed to achieve low-complexity and
low power consumption - Dynamic, non-overlapped timing
- Shared Soft-Spectrum processing bank (pulse
generator, ADC, and Soft-Spectrum correlator) - Reduced power consumption via adaptive duty cycle
of Soft-Spectrum sub-band - Dont necessarily require many continuously
running PLLs - Reused circuits exchangeable by software
realizing smaller die area - ? Many components in common with other UWB
architectures - LNA, BPF/LPF, AGC, VGA, and digital processing
unit - ? Many possible transceiver implementations and
following version-ups based on Software Defined
Radio architecture

586. Summary
- We propose a Ultra Wideband impulse radio
transferring scheme utilizing Soft-Spectrum
Adaptation and free, dynamic pulse waveform
shaping. - Soft-Spectrum Adaptation and free, dynamic pulse
waveform shaping can satisfy the FCC Spectrum
Mask and other regional regulation, and be
applied to avoid possible interferences with
other existing narrowband wireless systems.
59Summary (cont.)
- Scalable and adaptive performance improvement can
be achieved by utilizing the pulse waveform
shaping even in multi-user and multipath fading
environment. - Since RD of UWB has still been in progress, a
standardization should not restrict the progress
by only choosing easiest current technology while
leaving more flexibilities in signaling,
modulation, etc. in UWB physical layer.
