March 2015 doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/0359r2 Precoding Matrix & Receiver Filter? However, current EMD [1] does not describe how to decide precoding matrix & receiver filter clearly. MIMO calibration result could be differentiated according to precoding matrix & assumptions on receiver There are few receive filter options for calibration purpose There are few precoding options for calibration purpose: Genie selection (i.e. full rank, right sided SVD matrix based on channel of the intended link only) No precoding matrix (full rank, identity matrix) Some fixed matrix Submission Slide 4 Jaehyun, Dankook Univ./NEWRACOM
March 2015 doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/0359r2 MMSE Receiver Assumption Proposed that MMSE receiver is used for calibration purpose. Proposed Baseline: jk H w = ( ) 1 + 2 H i H ij P P H H p ij i n ij ik Option 1: = + 2 2 x 2 n H m H mj H P P H I n mj m , m N m i Option 2: = + 2 n 2 x 2 n H mj H H I diag mj , m N m i Option 3: (suggested assumption for calibration) = I 2 2 n n Submission Slide 5 Jaehyun, Dankook Univ./NEWRACOM
March 2015 doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/0359r2 LSP correlation for link from STA(AP) to STA(AP) in Scenario 4 In ITU channel model, LSP (Large Scale Parameter) is correlated based on geometrical distance. And, in general, exponential filter is used to reduce calculation complexity, in which determined geometrical random values are filtered and their location is not related to number of links. However, current ITU channel model does not clearly show the correlation for link from AP to AP or from STA to STA. AP to AP seems uncorrelated circumstances since distance between AP to AP is quite big. STA to STA seems quite complex since the number of STAs is too much. How to handle this? Submission Slide 6 Jaehyun, Dankook Univ./NEWRACOM
March 2015 doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/0359r2 Conclusion Receiver filter assumption is not clear in MIMO Box 2 calibration We propose to use the most basic assumption, MMSE receive filter with only co-stream interference covariance estimation, for calibration purposes. Precoding matrix selection rule is not clear in MIMO Box 2 calibration Precoding matrix selection rule should be described in EMD For simplicity reasons, we prefer to have no precoding matrix (i.e. full rank identity matrix) for calibration. LSP correlation We need verification of the AP to STA LSP correlation and concrete description on AP to AP links and STA to STA links. To simplify the calibration, we propose the following AP to STA : LSP is correlated using distance based correlation between BS and UE in ITU UMi/UMa model AP to AP : LSP is uncorrelated STA to STA : LSP is uncorrelated However, simplified assumptions may not reflect reality well. We would like feedback from TGax members on this issue. Submission Slide 7 Jaehyun, Dankook Univ./NEWRACOM
March 2015 doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/0359r2 Straw Poll #1 What should be the receiver assumption for MIMO Box 2 calibration purposes? 1. MMSE receiver with ideal interference rejection (Option 1 in slide) 2. MMSE receiver with only co-spatial-stream interference rejection (Option 3 in slide) 3. Need further discussion Submission Slide 8 Jaehyun, Dankook Univ./NEWRACOM
March 2015 doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/0359r2 Straw Poll #2 What should be the precoding matrix assumption for MIMO Box 2 calibration purposes? 1. No precoding (i.e. full rank transmission with identity matrix as precoding matrix) Genie precoding (i.e. full rank transmission with right sided SVD matrix based on channel matrix of the intended signal link) Something else (e.g. some fixed precoding rank 1 vector) Need further discussions 2. 3. 4.

March 2015 doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/0359r2 Straw poll #3 What is the current understanding of the LSP correlation conditions between AP to STA for MIMO Box 2? 1. Distance based correlation (based on ITU M.2135 correlation between Base Station and User Terminal Uncorrelated Undefined in the EMD and therefore interpretation left up to each individual contributor 2. 3. Submission Slide 10 Jaehyun, Dankook Univ./NEWRACOM
March 2015 doc.: IEEE 802.11-15/0359r2 Straw Poll #4 What should be the LSP correlation conditions for MIMO Box 2? For options with correlation, the assumption is that correlation shall be based on the distance-based-correlation defined for BS and UT in ITU M.2135 1. AP to AP uncorrelated & STA to STA uncorrelated 2. AP to AP correlated & STA to STA correlated 3. AP to AP uncorrelated & STA to STA correlated 4. AP to AP correlated & STA to STA uncorrelated 5.
