Demand for wireless communication is increasing significantly, while the frequency availability for wireless communication is quite limited. Currently, various countries are prompting the use of TV white spaces. IEEE 802.11 WG (Working group) has started a TG (Task Group), namely IEEE 802.11af to develop the international standard for WLAN in TV white spaces. In order to increase maximum throughput,...
This paper provides an overview on motivations and process behind the forming of the first low rate (LR) wireless personal area networks (WPAN) operating in the TV white space (TVWS), IEEE 802.15.4m. There are three main forces driving the LR-WPAN community to expand its operational band to the TVWS. First, the change in TVWS-related regulations that opens up new spectrum resources is the key triggering...
Cognitive radio based wireless systems using TV white space have been attracting a lot of attentions. In the cognitive radio systems using TV white space, it is desirable to secure a control channel to exchange the information on the availability of white space and the frequency resource such as the frequency channel and the bandwidth. In addition, it is necessary to secure minimum frequency resource...
This paper presents the system design method to determine the modulation and coding schemes according to the given usage models of single carrier transmission in millimeter wave Wireless LAN systems. Various modulation and coding combinations are compared and analyzed based on the BER performance over both AWGN and fading channels. The effects of hardware impairments including power amplifier non-linear...
This paper presents research status on public broadband wireless communication (PBB) system. The PBB system uses VHF band between 170 MHz and 205 MHz that is available after termination of analogue TV broadcasting service on July 24, 2011. This paper summarizes the transition of television service from analogue to digital and fundamental specification on spectrum usage, physical and MAC layers.
This paper presents the results of spectrum occupancy measurements carried out in three locations of Kanto area in Japan. Moreover, the collected data corresponding to DTV broadcasting service is analyzed to evaluate the possibilities of secondary systems operating in TV White Spaces (TVWS) in the framework of FCC regulations and Japanese standards. Appropriate propagation models are considered for...
This article presents an overview of the background, technology, regulation, and standardization in the course of deploying smart utility networks (SUNs) in TV white space (TVWS) communications, two wireless technologies currently receiving overwhelming interest in the wireless industry and academia. They are independent to and uncorrelated with each other, but share the same mission: conserving resources...
For the commercialization of the IEEE standardized super broadband WPAN and WLAN systems over Gb/s such as IEEE 802.15.3c and IEEE 802.11ad, a 60 GHz band CMOS based transceiver has been developed. This paper summarizes the configuration and the fundamental performance evaluation results.
Millimeter wave (mmWave) wireless personal area networks (WPANs) could provide multi-Gbps based data rate for short range communications. However, this ultra high data rate is sensitive to the co-channel interference (CCI). In this paper we use synchronization frame (sync frame) to mitigate possible interference between WPANs. Sync frames could be simply considered as the copies of beacons, which...
In this paper, we proposes the pro-active beamforming (BF) protocol realized in media access control (MAC) layer following IEEE 802.15.3c criteria for millimeter-wave 60GHz wireless personal area networks (60GHz WPANs). The pro-active BF may be used when the piconet controller (PNC) is the source of data to one or multiple devices (DEVs). It allows multiple DEVs to train their own receiver antennas...
This paper develops a cross layer model for both interference and coexistence analysis of a multi-Gbps millimeter-wave wireless personal area network (WPAN) system with directional antennas. The model takes into consideration realistic 60GHz propagation channel and high-speed physical layer design in actual WPAN network scenario. The model facilitates the analysis of directional interference and coexistence...
This paper introduces NICT's two current on-going projects regarding heterogeneous type and spectrum sharing type cognitive wireless network: Project CWC (Cognitive Wireless Cloud) and Project ASTRA (Advanced Spectrum-Management Technology for Radio Access innovation). For both projects, this paper summarizes the scope, usage model, system requirement, system architecture, prototyping, and standard...
In this paper, we propose a radio resource allocation (RRA) scheme for multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing access (OFDMA) systems in order to achieve the optimal system throughput. The proposed RRA algorithm adaptively schedules 3-dimension (3-D) (space, frequency and time) slots to different users according to various channel state information...
This paper investigates the interference mitigation capability of a millimeter-wave wireless personal area network (WPAN) in a realistic 60 GHz channel. The interference mitigation mechanism employs farther-reaching beacon signals and device-relayed synchronization command frames (sync frames) to further extend the protection range of the victim (a.k.a. primary) network. Firstly, it is found that...
