  2. Background • TGah PHY supports 2/4/8/16MHz signals based on the down clocked versions of 11ac 20/40/80/160 MHz, and an 1MHz signals based on 32FFT. • Both 2MHz and 1MHz receptions are mandatory in TGah PHY. • DFT spreading OFDM (DFTs-OFDM) is adopted for the uplink in IMT-2000 LTE for battery operated mobile terminal. • DFTs-OFDM application to 11ah PHY was suggested in IEEE802.11-11/0753r0, and IEEE802.11-12/0349r2 in 2012/3. • The proposal of IEEE802.11-0349r2 was well-supported for its advantage of lower PAPR and lower ACPL (adjacent channel power leakage)in non-linear HPA operation. • Y 16 N 1 A 23

  3. Abstract • This contribution is a follow-up of IEEE802.11-0349r2. • We propose DFT-spreading OFDM based optional specification for 11ah low rate PHY, especially for 1MHz and 2MHz modes, aiming at sensor network applications which need high power efficiency. November 2012 Slide 3

  4. Review of advantages of DFTs-OFDM • Battery driven wireless terminals are used for sensor network applications • Basic requirements for the use cases of 1a/1f and 2d/2e/2f • Low transmission speed: 2 MHz mode and 1 MHz mode • Long battery life time • Low power consumption at wireless sensor terminals • Basic Requirements for the use cases • Lower PAPR and lower ACPL (adjacent channel power leakage) with higher energy efficiency, i.e. low output power back-off operation at HPA. • Less BER performance degradation in non-linear HPA operation. Slide 4

  5. Null DC sub-carrier DFTs-OFDM November 2011 • 57 DFT/IDFT is the simplest approach for DFTs-OFDM, howeverFFT algorithm can not be applied for DFT/IDFT implementation since 57 is neither “power of two” nor “even”. • It needs large amount of signal processing for DFT/IDFT. • 56 DFT/IDFT is another simple approach for DFTs-OFDM. • 56 DFT/IDFT needs less amount of signal processing than 57 DFT/IDFT. • DC tone is replaced with one data tone. • DC offset error at modulator and demodulator can degrade BER performance in the conventional DFTs-OFDM.. • No BER performance degradation in OFDM since DC sub-carrier is not used. • DFTs-OFDM with null DC sub-carrier is proposed for 11ah low rate PHY optional specification, especially for sensor network applications where high power efficiency is required. • No BER performance degradation due to DC offset error in the proposed DFTs-OFDMsince DC sub-carrier is made null.
