AN-100U/UX Base Station User Manual 6 6 Traffic Scheduling 6.1 Overview There are several challenges when transporting traffic over a WiMAX interface: 1. Some jitter and delay is necessarily introduced by the half-duplex operation of the TDD (time division multiplex) wireless interface. 2. Designating quality of service (e.g., priority, throughput, and latency) settings for specific connections affects all other traffic. 3.
AN-100U/UX Base Station User Manual Important: If the committed uplink and/or downlink bandwidth exceeds the sector capacity, the associated bandwidth margin is displayed as zero. A zero value for an uplink or downlink bandwidth margin indicates the scheduler may not be capable of meeting the minimum bandwidth requirements for all connections and a warning message is appended to the system log. 6.2.
AN-100U/UX Base Station User Manual The Max. Sustained Rate determines the connection queue size, and controls the rate packets are forwarded over the wireless interface, but does not restrict the rate at which packets are received from the local Ethernet interface. Ethernet flow control mechanisms are not effective because the Ethernet switch has no information about how packets are assigned to individual connections. The following table lists the queue sizes for a range of Max. Sustained Rates.
AN-100U/UX Base Station User Manual ongoing manual or automated operations. Any unused bandwidth available after allocations to all active connections is also available. Important: This bandwidth is shared for all subscribers in the sector. Initiating multiple management operations simultaneously (e.g., subscriber software upgrades) may have a severe impact on any ongoing operator sessions (HTTP/TELNET) or automated operations (SNMP, Syslog) during high traffic. 6.
AN-100U/UX Base Station User Manual For example, the Min. Reserved Rate of 409,600 bps has a quantum (Q) of 512 bytes. If an application using this connection sends a 1500 byte packet, the packet will not be transmitted immediately, because the initial deficit counter value (Q = 512) will be less than the packet size. The deficit counter will accumulate to 1536 on the 3rd wireless frame (3 x 512 = 1536) and the packet may be transmitted (based on priority and available bandwidth).
User Manual AN-100U/UX Base Station Q = (2,325,120 bps / 8) * 10 ms = 2,907 bytes Uplink Connections When an uplink UGS connection becomes active, the base station schedules recurring unsolicited bandwidth grants for that subscriber. Pre-scheduled grants reduce the overhead and latency associated with normal uplink poll-request-grant sequences. The grant size is based on the UGS bandwidth requirement and the interval is based on the latency requirement. Max.
AN-100U/UX Base Station User Manual Q = (Min. Reserved Rate * Frame Duration / 8) * ( L + 1 ) 5. When packets have been transmitted in a wireless frame, the connection will not receive any bandwidth allocation during the next L-1 sequential wireless frames. This delay ensures the total throughput for the connection does not exceed the Max. Sustained Rate. Generally, the scheduler should be able to send data for an rtPS connection in every wireless frame when Max. Latency < 3 X Frame Duration.
AN-100U/UX Base Station 6.4.3 User Manual Non-Real-Time Polling Service (nrtPS) The nrtPS service is next in priority after rtPS, and is designed for applications that send variable sized packets and are not time-critical, but do require priority processing to ensure delivery. Typical applications include interactive web-based applications and high bandwidth FTP. Min. Reserved Rate: The required Committed Information Rate (CIR).
AN-100U/UX Base Station User Manual Stage 3.2 Processing continues with stage 3.2 if additional bandwidth is available at the end of Stage 3.1. Repeating the same priority processing, Stage 3.2 begins by allocating additional bandwidth (as required) up to the Max. Sustained Rate, or to empty that connection queue (whichever is less). Stage 3.2 continues until all active connections are processed or all available bandwidth has been allocated. Notes: The Max.
User Manual AN-100U/UX Base Station 7 7 Operational Notes 7.1 Uplink Subchannelization (AN-100UX only) The uplink subchannelization (USC) feature provides opportunities to increase sector uplink throughput and establish wireless links to medium and low signal subscribers. This feature is available for all subscribers running software v2.1 or higher. Uplink Subchannels In standard mode, the base station maps timeslots during which a single subscriber is permitted to transmit using all data subcarriers.
AN-100U/UX Base Station User Manual IMPORTANT: Units tagged 'mandatory' should not be considered 'in-service'. Depending on traffic conditions in the sector, 'mandatory' subscribers may not receive any bandwidth allocation for extended periods. This mode is provided to assist deployment and commissioning processes, and steps should be taken to improve the link budget for these subscribers before declaring them 'in-service'.
AN-100U/UX Base Station User Manual Figure 40: Op Notes - Intra-Sector Layer 2 Forwarding -- External Mode External Mode: When external mode selected, the base station accepts traffic resubmitted to the Ethernet port. This permits an external L2 switch to forward traffic between hosts located behind subscribers in the same sector. The L2 VLAN switch must have the capability to forward traffic back through the originating Ethernet port.
AN-100U/UX Base Station User Manual Traffic arriving at the base station from subscribers appears on the Ethernet port as well as being resubmitted to the MAC for reclassification and broadcast over the air. Disabled Mode: When the Intra-Sector L2 Forwarding feature is disabled, the base station will not forward traffic between subscribers (hairpinning) and will not accept traffic resubmitted to the Ethernet port by an external switch. 7.2.

User Manual AN-100U/UX Base Station system signal (i.e., C/I = 30 dB), the overall CINR will drop to around 23 dB, forcing the system to change the modulation rate to 64 QAM 2/3. Case 2: If the signal is very strong and the C/N ratio is around 28 dB, it will require a much stronger interferer to force a drop in modulation. According to the formula above, for a C/N of 28 dB, the C/I should be 25 dB in order to force a drop in modulation. In this case the interferer was 5 dB stronger than the first case.
AN-100U/UX Base Station User Manual 7. High receiver dynamic range to address dynamic interference. 8. State of the art filtering at the RF, IF and baseband levels to reduce interference. 9.
