`
`IEEE 802.16 Patent Policy:
`The contributor is familiar with the IEEE 802.16 Patent Policy and Procedures <http://ieee802.org/16/ipr/patents/policy.html>, including the statement "IEEE standards may include the
`known use of patent(s), including patent applications, provided the IEEE receives assurance from the patent holder or applicant with respect to patents essential for compliance with both
`mandatory and optional portions of the standard." Early disclosure to the Working Group of patent information that might be relevant to the standard is essential to reduce the possibility for
`delays in the development process and increase the likelihood that the draft publication will be approved for publication. Please notify the Chair <mailto:chair@wirelessman.org> as early as
`possible, in written or electronic form, if patented technology (or technology under patent application) might be incorporated into a draft standard being developed within the IEEE 802.16
`Working Group. The Chair will disclose this notification via the IEEE 802.16 web site <http://ieee802.org/16/ipr/patents/notices>.

`
`Problem Statement
`• Consider a TDD network with a low reuse
`frequency plan:
`– Network will need to be frame synchronized to avoid
`undue interference problems (between
`uplink/downlink)
`– In downlink, SS will detect signals from multiple base
`stations
`– Current long preamble marking the start of the
`downlink frame has only a single definition
`– Interference between multiple BS transmissions of the
`same preamble will result in degraded frame
`synchronization and channel estimation by the SS
`• Similar issues can occur in uplink

`
`
`
`Suggested Remedy
`
`• Design a set of preambles to replace each of the current
`preambles, supporting a reuse pattern:
`– Unique preambles with good cross-, auto-correlation
`– Frequency-spread subchannel preambles
`– Cyclic time shifted versions of the above
`• The preambles for which to consider designing
`replacement sets include:
`– 4x64, 2x128
`– AAS network entry preamble
`– STC preamble
`– Subchannel preambles
`• Support for new preambles would be mandatory for all SS

`
`
`
`Design Issues
`
`• How many distinct preambles in each set
`that replaces current preamble definitions?
`– Are distinct frame start preambles required?
`– Impact on SS performance requirements
`• Low PAR required
`• Good auto-correlation and cross-correlation
`properties required
