Definitions

  • Embodiments pertain to wireless networks. Some embodiments relate to Wi-Fi networks and networks operating in accordance with the IEEE 802.11 standards. Some embodiments relate to high-efficiency wireless or high-efficiency Wi-Fi (HEW) communications in accordance with the IEEE 802.11ax draft standard.
  • HEW high-efficiency wireless or high-efficiency Wi-Fi
  • IEEE 802.11ax High Efficiency Wi-Fi (HEW) is the successor to IEEE 802.11ac standard and is intended to increase the efficiency of wireless local-area networks (WLANs).
  • HEW's goal is to provide up to four-times or more the throughput of IEEE 802.11ac standard.
  • HEW may be particularly suitable in high-density hotspot and cellular offloading scenarios with many devices competing for the wireless medium may have low to moderate data rate requirements.
  • the Wi-Fi standards have evolved from IEEE 802.11b to IEEE 802.11g/a to IEEE 802.11n to IEEE 802.11ac and now to IEEE 802.11ax. In each evolution of these standards, there were mechanisms to afford coexistence with the previous standard. For HEW, the same requirement exists for coexistence with legacy devices and systems.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates a wireless network in accordance with some embodiments
  • FIG. 2A illustrates a non-HT (high-throughput) format packet protocol data unit (PPDU) in accordance with some embodiments
  • FIG. 2B illustrates a HT mixed-format PPDU in accordance with some embodiments
  • FIG. 2C illustrates a VHT (very-high throughput) format PPDU in accordance with some embodiments
  • FIG. 2D illustrates a HEW format PPDU in accordance with some embodiments
  • FIG. 2E illustrates a HEW format PPDU for single-stream transmissions in accordance with some embodiments
  • FIG. 2F illustrates a HEW format PPDU for multi-stream transmissions with transmit beamforming in accordance with some alternate embodiments
  • FIG. 2G illustrates a HEW format PPDU for multi-stream transmissions without transmit beamforming in accordance with some embodiments
  • FIG. 3 illustrates signal field constellations in accordance with some embodiments
  • FIG. 4 is a procedure for configuring a PPDU for communicating with HEW stations and legacy stations in accordance with some embodiments.
  • FIG. 5 is a block diagram of an HEW device in accordance with some embodiments.
  • Embodiments disclosed herein provide for coexistence of High Efficiency Wi-Fi (HEW) devices with existing legacy Wi-Fi devices.
  • Legacy devices may refer to devices operating in accordance with previous Wi-Fi standards and/or amendments such as IEEE 802.11g/a, IEEE 802.11n or IEEE 802.11ac.
  • HEW is a recent activity in IEEE to evolve the Wi-Fi standard. It has several target use cases, with a large focus on improving system efficiency in dense deployed networks. Since it is an evolution of the previous standards and needs to coexist with the legacy systems, a technique to identify each transmission as either a HEW packet or a legacy packet is needed. Additionally, it would be advantageous if the technique to identify the HEW transmissions could at the same time defer legacy devices. Finally, since one focus on HEW is efficiency, another aspect is to have a mechanism which accomplishes these things without adding any additional overhead to each transmission and possibly reducing the overhead.
  • Embodiments disclosed herein provide techniques to notify HEW devices that an HEW compliant transmission is occurring while also deferring legacy devices and doing so with little or no additional overhead from what is done in legacy transmissions and in some embodiments, less overhead. Since HEW is an evolution of the existing Wi-Fi standards, there have not been any previous solutions to address this need.
  • the preamble portion of the packet has been increased and new fields added with various modulation formats so that the new releases could be identified.
  • Some embodiments described herein are configured to defer legacy devices using the legacy signal field (L-SIG) and build upon the coexistence approach adopted in IEEE 802.11n and IEEE 802.11ac. In those systems, the rate field of the L-SIG was fixed to a set known value and the length was set to a length that would defer those devices beyond the transmission of an IEEE 802.11n or an IEEE 802.11ac transmission.
  • L-SIG legacy signal field
  • the same fixed value in the rate field may be used although this is not a requirement.
  • the length field of the L-SIG may be computed differently from what is done in an IEEE 802.11n/ac system to allow deferral of legacy systems and identification of an HEW transmission. These embodiments are described in more detail below.
  • an HEW signal field may also be used if needed and may use a modified legacy length value allowing for several preamble designs and potentially several payloads to support not only single user (SU) packets to multi-user (MU) packets like multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) or orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA).
  • SU single user
  • MU multi-user
  • OFDMA orthogonal frequency division multiple access
  • an access point may operate as a master station which would have mechanisms to contend and hold the medium. Uplink transmissions from scheduled HEW stations may immediately follow. In those cases, the AP may signal the specific devices that are targeted for uplink transmission the transmission parameters. Therefore, each device that transmits in the uplink would not need to send any additional configuration parameters and therefore does not need an additional SIG field in the preamble during their transmission.
  • Embodiments disclosed herein also allow legacy devices that missed the initial AP transmission (e.g., when returning from a power save mode) to detect the signal and properly defer irrespective of them being an IEEE 802.11a, an IEEE 802.11n or an IEEE 802.11ac device.
