Non-Hierarchical Structure
Definition
Only a single type of 16m synchronization symbol which may be in addition to the
legacy 16e preamble
No needs of 16e preamble as part of the SCH functionality
Main Features
One OFDM symbol through multiple antennas (CDD, FSTD, or TSTD)
Every other subcarrier : Null 2x repeated signal in time
Auto-correlation based detection algorithm

Hierarchical Structures
Definition
More than one type of SCH symbols exist within a super-frame.
This may or may not use the legacy 16e preamble as one level of hierarchy.
Main Features
The P-SCH can be used for initial acquisition.
Hierarchical structure 1 : Cross-correlation based detection algorithm
Hierarchical structure 2 : Auto-correlation based detection algorithm
The S-SCH can be used for fine synchronization, cell/sector identification
(ID), and channel measurements.
The P-SCH can be used as a phase reference for S-SCH detection.

Problem of Hierarchical Structure 1
Overhead
Additional resource (secondary sync. channel) compared to the non-hierarchical
structure
# of symbols for SCH (16e + 16m) in a super-frame
Total 8 symbols in the legacy-disabled mode
Total 12 symbols in the legacy-support mode without reusing of 16e preamble
Complexity in Timing Detection
Cross-correlation based algorithm
Sharpen peak in the condition of very small frequency offsets
Require separate step only for updating correlation metric every sample

Problem of Hierarchical Structure 2
Overhead

# of symbols for SCH (16e + 16m) in a super-frame
Total 8 symbols in the legacy-disabled mode
Total 12 symbols in the legacy-support mode without reusing of 16e preamble
Performance
Double energy should be required for the same performance as nonhierarchical one.
With coherent detections of S-SCH using P-SCH, the performance will be
degraded due to
Frequency offsets in practical environments
Composite channel from adjacent cells at cell edge
The overall performance depends on timing sync.
The only benefit of coherent detection will disappear.
9
Problem of Hybrid Structure
Complexity
With non-repeated P-SCH (cross-correlation based algorithm)
Require separate steps only for updating correlation metrics every sample large
complexity
Multiplexing of Data Channel with SCH
Separate processing for multiplexing will be required (e.g. 2 times of 256FFT
for SCH and a single 512FFT for data in the 5MHz)
A number of guard subcarriers will be required due to orthogonality
destruction.
Performance Degradation in Cell ID Detection
The sequence length will become half in a given amount of information. it
will result in an increase of detection error rate and false alarm rate.
Similar performance degradation to the previous Hierarchical 1 and 2
structures

Observations
The performance for cell ID
detection without a residual timing
error is -10.5dB @10^-2.
The performance for timing sync.
with ±(CP/2) is approximately 0 dB
@10^-2.
The overall cell search performance
(sync + cell ID detection) much more
depends on the timing performance
than the pure cell ID detection.

limited by sync.

Text Proposal for IEEE802.16m SDD
============ Start of text proposal for C80216m-08/003r4 ==============
[Adopt the following texts and remove other sentences in section 11.7.2.1.2.1.1, and
delete section 11.7.2.1.2.1.5]
11.7.2.1.2.1.1 Hierarchy
No hierarchy of synchronization channel (SCH) exists. The SCH is
transmitted with a span of one OFDM symbol through multiple transmit
antennas, in order to enable time- and frequency-synchronization and
cell-ID detection.
=================== End of text proposal ======================
