Abstract
 
Stadium has been acknowledged as a important use case
for the ax-technology. This document provides some
reasons why Stadium should be included as one
scenario in the Simulation scenario document

About the Stadium concept
 
Presented in IEEE 11-14/0381r0,
(Sony and Ericsson; March meeting)
March meeting response summary : Further discussions if stadiums
justify a separate simulation use case or are subsumed in outdoor
A stadium concept cover the aspects:
Several hundreds of APs concentrated in small area
High number of overheard STAs / APs
50,000 – 100,000 potential users (and active)
Very high interference levels and a raised noise floor
One AP typically covers 25 – 150 seats
Traffic demands are in the order of hundreds of GB/hour during an event
Outdoor scenario
Deployments using directional antennas

About the Stadium concept
 
Thus it serves the purpose of evaluating a very difficult
use case:
Users ultra-close to each other (many STAs close to each other)
LoS environment (increasing OBSS problem)
High bandwidth demands
UL/DL coverage asymmetry
Directional at AP and Omni-antenna at STA
At last meeting some measurement results was
presented 
IEEE 11-14/0682r0 showing some relevant
issues related to stadium deployments
 
Wi-Fi Alliance input
 
In the Liaison from Wi-Fi Alliance HEW Use Cases
(IEEE 802.11-13/1443r0) the Stadium scenario had the
highest ranking to create WiFi network bottlenecks in
2020 time frame.

Current content (IEEE 802.11-14/0621r4)
 
Does the “
Indoor Small BSSs Scenario
” scenario cover
“Stadium” aspects?
Outdoor Large BSS Hotspot does not (since “large-sized” BSS)
 
Slide 6

Comparing w/ Stadium scenario
 
Differences:
Sector (directional) coverage of APs
LoS channel model
Users are placed within tens of centimeters between each other
The overhearing overlap between BSSs is large, creating many
OBSS and hidden nodes issues
 
Slide 7
 
Hakan Persson, Ericsson AB
 
July 2014
 
Issue: Directional antennas at APs
 
Non-symmetric coverage of APs and STAs
Directional antennas at APs provides isolation between neighbour AP coverage
areas;
Omni-antennas at STAs spread radio signals in all directions
Uplink and downlink unbalances are introduced in the stadium case
Issue example: STA in another BSS cannot discover another BSS/AP DL
transmission and may start an interfering transmission reducing overall
spectrum efficiency
RTS/CTS mechanism is not assumed as being used in practice

Overlapping BSSs
issue STA to STA
STA1
STA2
 
AP2
 
AP1
 
AP2 coverage
 
AP1 coverage
 
Shape of STA coverage
(
Not showing “actual” coverage)
UL and DL
STA1
STA2
 
Reference case:
Regular, Omni antenna
 
AP1
 
AP2
 
STA may detect transmissions from other APs
 
STA may not detect transmissions from other APs
 
Issues with other scenarios not being
sufficient
 
1) Need for consideration of UL/DL imbalance
 
a) power
 
b) range
 
c) topology
 
d) carrier sensing range
2) Higher user density
3) Massive multicast usage
4) High UL traffic demand (photo uploads etc.)

How to capture
 
Options:
1.
Include a new scenario with typical stadium deployment.
Supporting denser network, LoS channel model, many OBSS and hidden node effects
Capturing also directional antenna deployment, UL/DL asymmetry coverage effects
2.
Modify/include a channel model in scenario 3 “Indoor BSS Hotspot” that is
more suited for stadium case (such as increase the LoS distance)
The high level of OBSS interference may still not be covered; needs also high density
STA placement within each BSS
But, no sector/directional deployments; missing coverage asymmetry effects
A new scenario seems more appropriate to capture all
effects within same test environment, creating a challenging
test case to evaluate performance

This document proposes the inclusion of a stadium scenario in the IEEE 802.11-14 standard, highlighting the importance of addressing the challenges posed by high-density Wi-Fi environments like stadiums. The concept explores the unique requirements of stadiums, such as a large number of access points, high interference levels, and significant bandwidth demands. Discussions revolve around the necessity for a separate simulation use case for stadiums due to their distinctive characteristics. The document also includes inputs from the Wi-Fi Alliance regarding the significance of addressing stadium scenarios to prevent network bottlenecks by 2020.
