Introduction • Frame structure for TDC (talk-around direct communication) – Sync-CH (synchronization channel) – Ded-CH (dedicated channel) – Sup-CH (supplementary channel). • Sup-CH – Ranging channel – CQI (channel quality indicator) – Feedback channel 2
Sup-CH Structure • Resource elements for Sup-CH – One m-tile (mini-tile) is a (5 OFDM symbols) (2 subcarriers) rectangular region. – One Sup-Sub. CH (supplementary subchannel) is composed of 4 distributed m-tiles (mini-tiles). • Relationship between Ded-CH and Sup-CH – One-to-one mapping between Ded-Sub. CH (dedicated subchannel) and Sup-Sub. CH. – Each slot supports up to 9 Sup-Sub. CHs (also supports up to 9 Ded-Sub. CHs). – Example ü 5 th Sup-Sub. CH is composed of m-tiles 5, 14, 23, and 32. 3
Ranging Channel Structure • Ranging channel – Estimation of time offset, frequency offset, SINR (signal to interference plus noise ratio), etc. – Periodically transmitted, where the starting slot number and the period are determined during link initialization. • Sequence allocation for ranging channel – The ranging sequence is defined by a binary code with length 8, given by [S 0 S 1 S 2 S 3 S 4 S 5 S 6 S 7] = [1, -1, 1, 1, -1] – The same sequence is repeatedly transmitted for 5 OFDM symbols. 4
CQI Channel Structure • CQI channel – Used for feedback of measured channel quality such as SINR or MCS level. – One CQI channel payload carries up to 4 -bit information. • Mapping of information in the CQI channel – Sequence generation ü See the following slide. – BPSK modulation ü 0 mapped to +1 and 1 mapped to -1 – Symbol sequence to subcarrier mapping ü See the right figure. 5

CQI Transmission • CQI channel – Periodically transmitted, where the starting slot number and the period are determined during link initialization. – The ranging channel and the CQI channel should be assigned to separate time slots by adjusting the starting slot number and the transmission period. • CQI payload – The AMS estimates the SINR using the Ded-CH preamble and the pilot symbols included in the Ded-CH. – The CQI index is determined using the estimated SINR. • Property of CQI sequences – Correlation between CQI sequences is minimized for non-coherent detection. – CQI sequences are designed to have small correlation with the ranging sequence. ü Using this property, an AMS without knowledge of CQI transmission slots can separate the ranging channel and the CQI channel. 7
Feedback Channel Structure • Feedback channel – Uses the same sequences as the CQI channel. – Includes the following control signals. ü ACK channel, NAK channels ü MCS Change Confirm: a response message to the MCS Change Command ü RCHG (resource change) indication: a response message to the RCHG Command – Transmitted using the slots which are not used by the ranging channel and the CQI channel. • Sequence mapping Index 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 Sequence 11111 0010110001 01001001101000 1011000100 0110001010 0000011101010011 11000 0001010110 0111000001 1010001111 100011 0101101101 0011111010 1110110100 Usage ACK NAK for frame 0 NAK for frame 1 NAK for frame 2 NAK for frame 3 MCS Change Confirm RCHG Indication Reserved Reserved Reserved 8

Simulation Results – CQI and Feedback • AWGN • Fading channel – Considering the power spectral density, the Sup-CH requires 1. 25 d. B gain to achieve the same coverage as 802. 16 m PFBCH. – The Sup-CH with 4 -bit payload has slightly better coverage than 16 m PFBCH. 13
Conclusion • Ranging channel – Only 8 subcarriers are used for the channel in TDC, while 72 subcarriers are used for the ranging channel in 802. 16 m. – The ranging period needs to be shortened. ü For example, when the ranging period is 100 ms, the adjustment of time and frequency requires about 3 sec. • CQI and feedback channel – When the 4 -bit payload is used, the CQI and feedback channels for TDC perform comparable to 802. 16 m PFBCH. • Note – The performance can be improved by ü Using more transmit and receive antennas ü Employing more elegant estimation algorithms or detection schemes. 14
