  3. Presentation Outline • Barker Symbol Shaping • Symbol Shaping and Line coding for Barker spread Wi-Fi • Symbol shaping for CCK spread Wi-Fi • Experimental study of MicroWave Oven (MWO) emissions • Analytical Model #1 for MWO signal • Analytical Model #2 for MWO signal • MWO Interference Mitigation for Wi-Fi Communications • Conclusions

  4. Symbol Shaping Study

  5. Achieving FCC Spectral Mask: Pulse Shaping or Filters? • All IEEE 802.11 systems use filters to meet FCC spectral mask • Filters introduce Inter-Symbol-Interference (ISI) • Symbol shaping lowers out-of-band interference power without ISI

  6. The Barker Spread sequence • The Barker chip sequence used in the 1 Mbps 802.11 standard is: B = [+1,−1,+1,+1,−1,+1,+1,+1,−1,−1,−1] • For transmitting bit 1, transmit chip sequence +B • For transmitting bit 0, transmit chip sequence –B • Spectral mask unmet:

  7. Sinusoidal Symbol Shape:

  13. Used to transmit data at 5.5 Mbps and 11 Mbps. Equations: The 5.5 Mbps signal has 4 unique vector sequences for x(n,k) and y(n,k) that can be symbol shaped: CCK symbol shaping

  14. Symbol shapes Used Sincm pulse shapes Sinusoidal pulse shapes

  16. Microwave Oven (MWO) Studies

  17. Why can I never connect to the internet during lunch time everyday? Motivation for MWO study MWO PSD spans ISM band

  18. Time domain MWO signal • The Residential MWO signal is synchronized with the 60 Hz AC line cycle, and it radiates for less than half a cycle. • Zero-span measurement at 2.455 GHz. Note the changing amplitude in the middle. • Transients are observable before and after the AM-FM signal.

  19. Spectrogram Analysis of MWO Signal • Spectrogram shows AM-FM nature of MWO signal. • The frequency sweeping is roughly sinusoidal in nature. • Observe the high transient energy concentrated in frequencies near FM signal. Transients AM-FM Signal

  20. MWO Model #1 features • Following time domain characteristic: • AM-FM signal • Transients represented by sinc pulses: • Large bandwidth lower power sinc pulse • Narrower Bandwidth high power sinc pulse modulated near AM-FM signal.

  22. Problem with Model #1 • For a bandwidth of 50 MHz, the transient durations come out to be in the order of nanoseconds as opposed to milliseconds. • The FM carrier frequency of an MWO is not constant but varies: • The transient power PSD is not flat, but follows a curve similar to the bell curve, but with a short tail on the high frequency curve.

  23. New Model • The carrier frequency Fc was made random. • The transients were formulated as a sum of sinc pulses modulated at uniformly spaced frequencies, where the sinc pulse power was a function of the frequency following a modified Rayleigh distribution plot:

  27. MWO Interference and Mitigation • Complete experimental Wi-Fi system was setup. • The effect of MWO interference on BER was measured for this Wi-Fi setup. • Interference was mitigated by cognitive radio circuit.

  30. Conclusions • Complete Wi-Fi system was implemented. • Pulse Shaping was thoroughly applied to IEEE 802.11 Barker Spread Signal and Wi-Fi performance was improved. • Pulse shaping was applied to 5.5 Mbps CCK spread signal. • MWO signal was examined meticulously. • Good analytical model was developed and verified by emulation and simulation. Model is useful in network simulation studies. • An interference mitigation technique was developed for Wi-Fi system that eliminates MWO interference. This technique significantly enhances Wi-Fi system performance in interference environments.
