RE: stds-80220-requirements: Spectral Efficiency (4.1.2)

Title: Message
David,
 
I believe that if you look at the spectrum allocation scheme and spectrum emission mask for CDMA2000 you will find that 1.25 MHz does include the guard bands.  The CDMA2000 channel spacing is 1.25 MHz.

Regarding these definitions, it should be clearly understood whether
or not guard bands are accounted for in the calculation of spectral
efficiency.  For UMTS (W-CDMA), the channel is usually quoted as being
5 MHz wide.  In this case the guard bands have been included.  However,
for cdma2000 1X (and IS-95) the channel is usually quoted as being
1.25 MHz wide which does not include the necessary guard bands.

I propose the following:

Network Wide Bandwidth:  The network wide bandwidth is the total spectrum in
use by the unique carriers deployed in the network, including any
required guard bands.



Best regards,

Below is the latest version of the text that was developed at the Plenary in Albuquerque along with a list of the open issues for this section.

*       4.1.2   System Spectral Efficiency (b/s/Hz/sector)
*       The system spectral efficiency of the 802.20 air interface shall be quoted for the case of a three sector baseline configuration [Footnote 1]. It shall be computed in a loaded multi-cellular network setting, which shall be simulated based on the methodology established by the 802.20 evaluation criteria group. It shall consider among other factors a minimum expected data rate/user and/or other fairness criteria, and percentage of throughput due to duplicated information flow. The values shall be quoted on a b/s/Hz/sector basis. The system spectral efficiency of the 802.20 air interface shall be greater than X b/s/Hz/sector.

*       Footnote 1: Since the base configuration is only required for the purpose of comparing system spectral efficiency, proposals may submit deployment models over and beyond the base configuration.


*       Definition:
*       System spectral efficiency - System spectral efficiency is defined as the ratio of the aggregate throughput (bits/sec) to all users in the system divided by the network wide bandwidth (Hz) and divided by the number of sectors in the system.

*       Aggregate Throughput: Aggregate throughput is defined as the total throughput to all users in the system (user payload only).

*       Network Wide Bandwidth:The network wide bandwidth is the total spectrum in use by the unique carriers deployed in the network.


*       Open items
-       Single value vs. multiple for uplink and downlink
-       X bits/sec/Hz [note 1 b/s/Hz -or- downlink > 2 b/s/Hz/(cell or sector?) @ 3km/hr ;uplink > 1 b/s/Hz/(cell or sector?) @ 3 km/hr].

-       Actual values of spectral efficiency at higher speeds
-       TDD/FDD
