  2. July 2024 doc.: IEEE 802.11-24/1159r0 Introduction LDPC Codes in 802.11 LDPC FEC was introduced in 2007 for 802.11n and typical data rates in the tens of Mbit/s Codeword length up to 1944 bits at column weight around 3.5 Current Situation Increased data rate results in an OFDM symbol to contain many of FEC codewords In the last years, LDPC codes improved through the introduction in various technologies, e.g., 5G wireless, PON, DSL Ultra-high reliability drives use cases with low PER, where coding gain is increasingly important Submission Slide 2 Rainer Strobel, MaxLinear

  5. July 2024 doc.: IEEE 802.11-24/1159r0 This Submission In [4], a high complexity decoder implementation (sum-product decoding with 20 max. iterations) is used. Typical implementations likely use simpler decoders, e.g., min-sum decoding. This submission presents a performance comparison with min-sum decoding with 10 max. iterations. A comparison with LDPC codes used in other technologies is given. Submission Slide 5 Rainer Strobel, MaxLinear

  10. July 2024 doc.: IEEE 802.11-24/1159r0 Observations from AWGN Simulations The 3888 bit WLAN codes show good performance at a short code length (and thus, low decoder complexity). This gives a good performance/complexity trade-off. At rate , the 5G code performs best (designed for this code rate) At rates 2/3 and , the Mgfast code performs best (designed for code rate ) At rate 5/6, the PON code performs best (designed for a code rate of 0.85) As the MGFAST code provides a good performance on most code rates and constellation sizes, it is used for reference for WLAN channel simulations Submission Slide 10 Rainer Strobel, MaxLinear

  11. July 2024 doc.: IEEE 802.11-24/1159r0 D NLOS 2x2 1 Stream Channel Performance Rate 1/2 code, 4-QAM Up to 1dB gain, depending on the channel, of 3888 bit code at PER 0.01 Rainer Strobel, MaxLinear Submission Slide 11

  13. July 2024 doc.: IEEE 802.11-24/1159r0 D NLOS 2x2 2 Streams Channel Performance Rate 3/4 code, 256-QAM 1-2dB gain with the longer Wi-Fi code Submission Slide 13 Rainer Strobel, MaxLinear

  14. July 2024 doc.: IEEE 802.11-24/1159r0 D NLOS 2x2 2 Streams Channel Performance Rate 5/6 code, 1k-QAM 1-2dB gain with a larger Wi-Fi code Submission Slide 14 Rainer Strobel, MaxLinear

  15. July 2024 doc.: IEEE 802.11-24/1159r0 Observations from D NLOS Simulations SNR gains of larger LDPC like the new Wi-Fi codes on real channels are higher than in AWGN channels. The 3888 bit Wi-Fi code gives a good performance/complexity trade-off. The performance gains obeserved in [4] are visible with a low complexity LDPC decoder, too. The SNR gain of the Mgfast code is higher, but it is 3x the length of the 3888 bit WLAN code. Submission Slide 15 Rainer Strobel, MaxLinear

  16. July 2024 doc.: IEEE 802.11-24/1159r0 Rate-vs.-Range Simulation Nss=2 fixed D NLOS 2x2 2 streams Conditions Observations Rate 3/4, 4QAM doesn t work well (all codes) 4 Channels, 0.2dB SNR steps >10k codewords per SNR 10000 Byte packet no puncturing/shortening (large frame) Submission Slide 16 Rainer Strobel, MaxLinear

  17.

  18. July 2024 doc.: IEEE 802.11-24/1159r0 Details on Rate-Reach Observations MCS2 vs. MCS3, 2 streams Required SNR for 4QAM, Rate is higher than 16QAM, Rate . This is the case for all codes and thus, not associated with the LDPC code matrix MCS2 SNR-vs.-goodput of larger codes Longer codewords have a much steeper transition from 0 to max. goodput latency improvement MCS3 Higher latency due to packet errors Submission Slide 18 Rainer Strobel, MaxLinear

  19. July 2024 doc.: IEEE 802.11-24/1159r0 Longer Codes for 2.4 GHz Band? A 3888 bit LDPC decoder, as presented in [4] is equivalent to two parallel LDPC decoders for 1944 bit. For higher bandwidth channels, e.g., 160MHz or 320MHz, multiple parallel decoders are typically used and thus, the overhead for introducing a 2x size codeword is small. This may not be the case for 2.4GHz where the max. bandwidth is 40MHz. For the 2.4 GHz band it is recommended not to support 3888 bit LDPC codes to limit the added complexity. Submission Slide 19 Rainer Strobel, MaxLinear

  20. July 2024 doc.: IEEE 802.11-24/1159r0 Conclusions The proposed 3888 bit code shows a performance improvement on the AWGN channel and for WLAN channels, while it is still shorter than other state-of- the-art LDPC codes. Longer LDPC codewords improve latency, as the packet error rate at the max. goodput operationg point is lower. For code performance comparisons, limited decoder complexity (e.g., min- sum 10 iteration) should be considered. New codes shall provide gains with limited decoder complexity. Implementation complexity can be limited by introducing larger codes in 5 and 6GHz bands, only. Submission Slide 20 Rainer Strobel, MaxLinear
