Submission Slide 3 General Atomics – Naiel Askar May 2003 doc.: IEEE 802.15-03/208r0 UWB Multi-Band Defined • The Multi-Band Coalition* defines UWB multi-bands as – Partitioning 7,500 MHz of unlicensed UWB spectrum into multiple bands (3-16 bands) occupying between 500 – 700 MHz Example UWB Frequency Bands in a Mutiband Approach 0 0.8 -2 0.6 -4 0.4 -6 Amplitude (dB) Amplitude A multiband

Atomics – Naiel Askar May 2003 doc.: IEEE 802.15-03/208r0 Comparison of Modulations • Typically for Fixed Sequencing; BPSK, QPSK and variations of PPM is used on multiple bands for modulation • Spectral KeyingTM modulation allows varying the sequence of the bands, in addition to potential usage of BPSK or QPSK on each band – Allows encoding more information per band – Lower PRF is possible – High data rates achieved using fewer bands • Because the set of allowable symbols increases with the factorial of the number of bands f6 f5 f4 f3 f2 f1 Fixed Sequencing Variable Sequencing (Spectral KeyingTM) Submission Slide 5 General Atomics – Naiel Askar May 2003 doc.: IEEE 802.15-03/208r0 Energy Capture is Primarily a Function of Bandwidth • Energy capture is important in severe multipath channels • Determined by – Bandwidth of transmitted pulse – Number of Rake arms Impact of Receive Bandwidth on Total Received Energy for CM1 1 0 -1 -2 -3 -4 -5 3 GHz BW 2 GHz BW 1 GHz BW 0.5 GHz 0.25

Approach Enables Variable PRF • Spectral KeyingTM achieves slightly lower PRF than Fixed Sequencing • Low PRF – Reduces collisions between successive pulses of same frequency – Enables off periods between transmissions which allow collection of more energy with a serial Rake receiver • The variable PRF concept allows the optimization of the transmitted waveform to channel properties and required range Two Repetitions at Full PRF 1 0 -1 1.41 26.5 ns One Repetition at Half PRF 0 -1.41 53 ns Submission Slide 7 General Atomics – Naiel Askar May 2003 doc.: IEEE 802.15-03/208r0 Example Multi-Band Implementations Serial arm receiver – Suitable for fixed sequence Multi-Band solutions – Can still collect multiple rays from the same band Parallel arm receiver – Suitable for any Multi-Band solution – Allows collection of more signal energy – Needs ability to turn off unused components Submission Slide 8 General Atomics – Naiel Askar May 2003 doc.: IEEE 802.15-03/208r0 How a Single Arm Receiver Collects Energy • Off period between multiple chips can be utilized to collect more energy in all Multi-Band solutions by implementing the variable PRF concept • Improvements of range equivalent to 2-4 dB are obtained in some channels transm m ited signal one sam ple receiver f1 f4 f7 f 3 f 6 f1 sam pling clock two sam ple receiver f1 sam pling clock Submission General

Naiel Askar May 2003 doc.: IEEE 802.15-03/208r0 Conclusions – Fixed vs. Variable Sequencing • Multi-Band Coalition has performed extensive performance comparisons for both approaches • General Atomics’ conclusion is that the 2 approaches can both yield excellent results • We are supporting the Fixed Sequencing approach for 802.15.3a because – It is a more open approach, which is more amenable to including further concepts – It supports early merge activities • We are actively contributing to a merged UWB Multi-Band proposal • We will continue to develop variable sequence technologies such as Spectral KeyingTM for applications outside of 802.15.3a Submission Slide 13 General Atomics – Naiel Askar
