On the issues with Odd and Even Node
Polarity
Date:
 2017-11-03
Motivations
FB introduces the “Odd and Even Node Polarity” in [1]
which defines the transmission pattern between DNs
and CNs in the TDD sub-frames. The benefits are to
improve the overall capacity and potentially reduce the
interference.
However, we found this Odd and Even Node have the
scalability and efficiency problem.

Precursory Assumptions
All the DNs and CNs are within the same BSS.
Each DN cannot receive multiple streams from
different DNs simultaneously.
Realistically, Interference Cancellation is a hard
problem.

The Sinking Hole Problem (SHP)
Due to the Odd and Even Node polarity settings and
the inter-node interference, the Link between DN1 and
DN2 can not be active during the both first and second
time slots (SPs)
 The SHP only applies to the backhaul links.
 One possible solution to avoid the sinking hole
problem is to dedicate the time slots (SPs) for the link
between DN1 and DN2.
 However, the latency will be noticeable.
 and the scheduling will be complex.
To generalized this problem, the Odd and Even Node
polarity scheme cannot scale up in large network.

Uneven Traffic Problem (UTP)
In this case, we are assuming DN0 is the end DN,
DN1/DN2 are intermediate DNs, and DN3 is the portal
to internet.
Also, we assume the Sinking Hole Problem could be
solved.
We assume today’s traffic is uneven in both directions,
i.e 80% of traffic are downlink and 20% of traffic are
uplink.
 We will observe the UTP due to the uneven traffic
distribution.

Potential Solution To UTP
Change the rule of Odd and Even polarity setting for
DNs links.
For instance, the Odd and Even polarity applies ONLY to DN-CN
links.
The DN-DN links should not follow the Odd and Even polarity
settings.
Enable each DN to send and receive simultaneously
from different sources (new methods/technologies
should be introduced).
