Effective SINR Mapping for TGax System Level Simulations
Explore the innovative approach of ESM (Effective SINR Mapping) for PHY abstraction in IEEE 802.11ax system simulations. The study delves into predicting packet error rates based on channel realizations, leveraging RBIR and LDPC techniques. Discover the MCS-dependent and independent tuning methods for LDPC and BCC in various channels, offering insights into effective SNR versus packet error rate curves.
