Sailesh, Following is my results of your requested simulation. Note that the
purpose of the simulation is to repeat what you did so that we can talk with
the same language. Although I am not sure why PAM12 has penalty in coding gain,
I used 10.2dB coding gain for PAM8 and 9.8dB for PMA12. I think these are what
you used (Correct me if I am wrong). I also added your numbers in red for “BGN
for 0dB margin” for the comparison. Model 1, CAT7 100m
Note: Red is from Sailesh results Model 2, CAT6 55m
I, intentionally remove your final columns because it is not CORRECT. We
will discuss later on the subject. First of all, SNR and noise margin matched very closely, within 0.1dB
error, however, BGN for 0dB margin are off by about 2dB. We have to find out
why but “Difference between PMA8 and 12” are about same. Yours are
a little more than what I got but they are off only 0.3 to 0.4dB. At this
stage, I agree with you that tolerable BGN is bigger for PAM8. However, note
that PAM8 is the simple one without 0.75+0.25/z that you are proposing. Your
proposal with 0.75+0.25/z filter is the worst. We have had four models for the system comparison back in March meeting.
Those models do not have any “EXTERNAL NOISE” other than A-crosstalk.
We assumed 10GBaseT is the self-crosstalk limited system. We believed that is reasonable
and we did intensive study with the good IC considerations. As everyone agreed,
PAM12 is the best noise margin solution in those criteria. Now, Sailesh raised
the issue “Immunity for the EXTERNAL NOISE” at the last meeting. I am very positive to improve IEEE standard within a reasonable time
frame. If A-crosstalk is not the biggest impairment or EMI noise is as big as
that, let’s redefine that and create 5th model on the top of
the existing four models. Dan made a good point in his mail today. Will you be
able to get a data of the frequency content of the EMI noise that everyone is
comfortable with? I myself want to take a quick look at that even if you can
not claim that is the general universal conditions. That should tell how many
dB PAM8 is better in EMI tolerance (or non issue) and people can judge both
A-crosstalk immunity and EMI tolerance at the same time. Hiroshi Takatori Keyeye Communications, Inc. -----Original Message----- 10GBT'ers: In the attached, I've updated the 3 tables in our July presentation
based on the following: 1. Change PAM12 symbol rate to 825Ms/s from 820Ms/s. 2. Delete PAM10 entry. 3. As Luc pointed out, add a 1.2dB emissions penalty for PAM12 due to
its higher transmit PSD. 4. As Jose pointed out, subtract 0.4dB from the PAM12 emissions penalty
due to the THP peak voltage adjustment. Next, I integrated the WGN for 1E-12 BER over the Nyquist frequency
range to get a "wideband noise tolerance" measure for the two
proposals. Finally, I summed the noise immunity penalty and the emissions penalty for the
PAM12 proposal to form a "Total EMI Penalty" metric over the PAM8
approach. In Models 1 and 3, the penalty works out to be 2.6dB and 2.2dB
respectively for PAM12 over PAM8. However, in Model 2, which represents the existing cabling infrastructure, the penalty for PAM12 over PAM8 works out to a whopping 4.0dB!!
