November 2017 doc.: IEEE 802.11-17/1625r6 Operation of WUR To reduce power consumption, even the WUR will not be always on. In each beacon interval, there is a 2ms awake window for WURs. The duration of a WUR frame can be about 1ms. For example, with 48bits date field, the duration is about 800us. With 60 bits data field, the duration is over 1ms (60*16us+40us~1ms). We need to enhance the efficiency of wake-up operations. To avoid reducing the WLAN network throughputs due to wake-ups, especially with a lot of stations without WURs. Submission Slide 2 Jianhan Liu, Mediatek, et. al.
doc.: IEEE 802.11-17/1625r6 Multi-user (MU) Wake-up Operations Enabling MU wake-up operations enhances efficiency significantly If a WUR frame wakes up 2 stations one time, the efficiency increases 100%! Enabling MU wake-up operations is a good approach to fully exploit the advantages provided by11ax MU transmissions. Most WUR stations for IOT and they just need to transmit/receive short data packets. 11ax OFDMA transmissions achieves highest efficiency for short packets. If the WUR station needs to be waked up one by one, then they are likely to be waked in different beacon interval or awake window. 11ax OFDMA transmission is hard to use. MU wake-up operations by grouping wake-up only has limitations too. Grouping management adds a lot of overhead. For example, group ID update, re-grouping, etc. It is not flexible and not efficient when there are large number of groups. Submission Slide 3 Jianhan Liu, Mediatek, et. al.
doc.: IEEE 802.11-17/1625r6 FDMA MU wake-up operations (continues) Compared to MU wake-ups using grouping method, FDMA MU wake-up operations is particularly useful for wake-up a small number of WUR stations. Enabling FDMA MU wake-up does not increase any cost at TX and RX. At TX, AP just need to use the sub-carries of the multiple sub-channels using OFDM. There is no cost at all at TX. At RX, each WUR station only needs to operated on the sub-channel that assigned to it during the association. There is no extra cost because WUR receiver already has mixer. For BSS with wide BW than 20MHz, it is a waste just allow one 11ba channel in the primary 20MHz channel only. Submission Slide 4 Jianhan Liu, Mediatek, et. al.

doc.: IEEE 802.11-17/1625r6 Advantages of FDMA Transmissions of Scheme A Compared to other FDMA transmissions such as schemes shown in the appendix, Scheme A does not add extra complexity. FDMA Transmission Schemes A significantly enhance the spectral efficiency in BSS with operation BW that is greater than 20MHz. Note that the BSS based on 11ac and 11ax are likely be 80MHz or larger. 11ba station is most likely HE stations, they can take the advantage of OFDMA reception after wake up by FDMA Transmission Schemes A. The enhance of spectral efficiency of 11ba helps the whole network throughput and therefore is helpful for market success of 11ba technology. FDMA Transmission Schemes A enables the discovery efficiently. FDMA Transmission Schemes A greatly allows larger number of 11ba STAs in one BSS. Submission Slide 7

It enables low-cost and low-power filter to reduce the adjacent channel interferences (ACI). Submission Jianhan Liu, Mediatek, et. al.

Transmitter transmits OOK wake-up signal on each sub-channel to a station with WUR receiver. The protection frequency band between three sub-channels and enamoring 20MHz WiFi channel is 2MHz. It enables low-cost and low-power filter to reduce the adjacent channel interferences (ACI). Submission Jianhan Liu, Mediatek, et. al.
