P802.15 Alternative PHY Call For Proposals, IEEE
P802.15-02/327r7 Abstract Various
modifications of our proposed Soft-Spectrum
Adaptation(SSA) are introduced after brief review
of SSA. We perform various SSA UWB proposals as
cases with proper kernel functions and pulse
shaping, so SSA is able to be introduced to
implement either single-band or multiband
systems. Moreover, various harmonization based on
SSA are investigated considering co-existence,
interference avoidance, matching with regulatory
spectral mask, and high data rate. Purpose For
investigating the characteristics of High Rate
Alternative PHY standard in 802.15TG3a, based on
Soft-Spectrum Adaptation, pulse waveform shaping
and Soft-Spectrum template receiving. Notice

- on Soft-Spectrum Adaptation(SSA) UWB
- for IEEE802.15.3a WPANs
7What is Soft-Spectrum Adaptation UWB ? Basic
Philosophy ? Soft-Spectrum Adaptation (SSA)
- Design a proper pulse waveform with high
frequency efficiency corresponding to any
frequency mask. - Adjust transmitted signals spectra in flexible
so as to minimize interference with coexisting
systems.
Soft-Spectrum Adaptation(SSA)
8 Basic Formulation
Example of Pulse Generator
Synthesize a proper pulse waveform
In case of multiband, a kernel function is a
sinusoidal function. In case of impulse radio, a
kernel function is a Gaussian, Hermitian pulse
function etc.
Feasible Solution Pulse design satisfying
Spectrum Mask
- Divide (spread-and-shrink ) the whole bandwidth
into several sub-bands ? Soft Spectrum (spectrum
matching) - Pulse synthesized by several pulses that have
different spectra ? - Soft Spectrum, M-ary signaling
N division
9Soft-Spectrum Adaptation (SSA) with Flexible Band
Plan
Single-band
Multi-band
Dual- or Triple-band
In the future, if the restricting ruggedness of
regional spectral mask (e.g. FCC mask) is eased,
band allocation can be extended below 3.1 GHz or
above 10.6 GHz.
Soft-Spectrum Adaptation (SSA) can correspond
freely
10Soft-Spectrum Adaptation(SSA) Classification
- Free-Verse Type of SSA
- ? A kernel function is non-sinusoidal, e.g.
- Gaussian, Hermitian pulse etc.
- ? Single band, Impulse radio
- (2) Geometrical Type of SSA
- ? A kernel function is sinusoidal with
different - frequency.
- ? Multiband with carriers and Multi-carrier
11- Free-verse Type Soft-Spectrum Adaptation
- ? Freely design pulse waveforms by
synthesizing pulses, e.g. overlapping and
shifting

K-4 Free-verse Soft-Spectrum Adaptation

12(2) Geometrical Type Soft-Spectrum Adaptation ?
Freely design pulse waveforms using various
geometrical type envelopes
13Global Coexistence with other Potential
Interferences
- Multiband/OFDM
- Only (b) is available
- SSA
- Both (a) and (b) are available
(b) Simply eliminate the band if other services
exist.
(a) Use of frequency band having low emission
limit, but the same pulse energy is available by
using wider bandwidth.
- If more potential interferer should be
considered, (b) does not work because it simply
reduce the signal energy. - Soft-Spectrum Adaptation (SSA) approach provides
more option to overcome future potential
coexistence issue.
14Features of Soft-Spectrum Adaptation (SSA)
- Soft-Spectrum Adaptation (SSA) with flexible
pulse waveform and frequency band can perform
single and multiband UWB by - ? Free-verse type pulse waveform shaping and
- ? Geometrical type pulse waveform shaping,
respectively. - Interference avoidance for co-existence,
harmonization for various proposals, and global
implementation can be carried out by SSA. - ? SSA can flexibly adjust UWB signal spectrum
so as to match with spectral restriction in
transmission power, i.e. spectrum masks in both
cases of single and multiple bands. - Scalable, adaptive performance improvement
- Smooth system version-up similar to Software
Defined Radio (SDR).

453. Harmonization Based on SSA for All Proposed
UWB Systems
- Global Harmonization is the everlasting aim and
basic philosophy of CRL-UWB Consortium. - CRLs Soft-Spectrum Adaptation has a wide
capability to be harmonized with all the proposed
UWB systems - Intel, General Atomics, ST Microelectronics,
Samsung, TI, and so on. - Just changing the kernel functions and shapes of
Soft-Spectrum Adaptation pulse waveforms.
46Harmonization Based on SSA
473.1. SSA Harmonizationwith Intels Multi-Band
Proposal
483.2. SSA Harmonization with STMicroelectronics
PPM Proposal
- Modulation 2PPM Polarity (for 123 Mbps)
- Pulse shape Full band pulse shape
- Channel coding Turbo coding
The concept of full band pulse shape of STM is
quite close to CRLs Free-verse SSA philosophy.
Each STMs waveform can be considered to be a
Pulse Shape in SSAs Pulse Shape Modulation(PSM).
At the receiver, use of correlation between each
pulse shape and received waveform gives a large
advantage to the transmission performance.

533.4. Summary of Harmonization Based on SSA
- Our combined iterative demapping/decoding scheme
including Pulse Shape Correlator offers a large
advantage in the transmission performance. -
- For example, we confirmed that the performance
of Pulse Shape Modulation Convolutional Code
is superior to that of Turbo code. - SSA also have a harmonizing capability with
other schemes, such as TIs Frequency Hopping
OFDM scheme and so on, and our iterative decoding
scheme is applicable to many proposals in IEEE
802.15.3a.
544. Self-Evaluation ? General Solution Criteria
55Self-Evaluation ? PHY Protocol Criteria (Cont.)
56Self-Evaluation (Cont.) ? MAC Protocol
Enhancement Criteria
575. Concluding Remarks
What do we really want to emphasize ?!
Since RD of UWB has still been in progress, our
standardization procedure should not restrict the
progress by only choosing the easiest current
technologies.
On the contrary, we should leave more
flexibilities and freedoms in signaling,
modulation, spectrum matching, etc., especially
at UWB physical layer.
Thats why we need SSA !
