ABCD

• Points of Agreement
• Modulation scheme should admit multiple classes
  of receivers
• Transmitter based on deterministic pulse
  structures
• Should allow reception by coherent,
  differentially-coherent (can be TR) and
  non-coherent receivers
• Provision for homogeneous operation when
  membership supports it
• Ternary modulation
• Specific modulation format TBD
• Sub-banding
• Center of three bands is mandatory
• Other two optional
• Wider bandwidth (1.5 GHz) concentric with center
  band is optional
• CDMA within frequency bands
• Harmonic chip rate integer relationship between
  center frequency and chip rate
• Consider ways to avoid Japanese UNII band (shift
  band lower)
• Integer-plus-half is also proposed, some concerns
  with DC balance
• Maintain 3.1 corner
• Constant PRF is desired as possible
• Specific band plan - TBD
• Cost effective reference frequency with
  appropriate PPM

Specific Mandatory/Option Breakdown

• As noted on previous slide
• Mandatory
• 500 center band
• AM of 3.1-4.9 is 3.975
• GM of 3.1-4.9 is 3.877
• Center band frequency is TBD, but must be in
  3.85 to 4.05
• Optional
• 2 additional 500 MHz bands for FDM center
  frequencies TBD
• Wideband concentric with center specified above
• Sub-GHz band
• Chirp of some form (could be 2.4 GHz band
  Merger E)
• Non-coherent for homogeneous network (Merger C)
• Add TH as additional SOP mechanism
• Add chirp specifically for UWB as SOP mechanism
• Add specific optional band gt 6 GHz with
  guaranteed gt1.5GHz BW
• Support mode for higher data rates (few to 10
  Mbps)
• Other issues
• Desire to have common packet for communications
  and ranging if possible
• Multiple (2-few) PRF in band
