Motivation for Ad Hoc Relay Mode
• 802.16m Requirements
– The IMT-Advanced Network Topology proposes
multi-hop, mesh and P2P (peer-to-peer) modes
– The 802.16m operational requirements call for:
• Multi-hop relay support
– Tremendous opportunity for network architectures that scale
with low cost mobile stations
• Self-optimization of network performance with respect
to service availability, QoS, network efficiency and
throughput
– Supports coverage extension, infrastructure-offloading, and
other usage models

Motivation for Ad Hoc Relay Mode (continued)
• Usage Models
– Coverage/Range Extension
• Micro-holes/shadowing/fringe coverage
• Improved throughput
– In-building Penetration
– Improved Frequency Reuse

Limitations of Current Technologies
• 802.16 Mesh Mode
– Not integrated with legacy PMP mode.
• Frame is either Mesh or PMP
– Expensive overhead.
• Alternating Mesh and PMP frames reduces QoS with large latency
between PMP frames
• 802.16j Relay Mode
– Relay stations are not allowed to forward the traffic between
two MS nodes. Mesh capable MS can be a source,
destination, or a relay
• Does not permit modification of mobile stations to be used as relays
– Current 802.16j frame cannot manage the asynchronous and
dynamic nature of peer-to-peer connections
• No ability for peer communications (broadcast, unicast, or multicast)
4
Ad Hoc Relay Mode Requirements
•
Control and access mechanisms that allow MS peers to synchronize and
communicate with one another
– Out-of-coverage MS nodes need network synchronization
– Peer nodes need a mechanism for discovering a communication path between them
– Peer nodes require the ability to negotiate with peer nodes for traffic channel resources
for P2P communications
• Self-optimization should maximize opportunity for frequency reuse
• Negotiation should be BS supervised
•
Physical layer design:
– Preamble design for AGCing to prevent near-far data transmission from saturating
receiver.
– Synchronization must be enhanced to mitigate multi-access interference
•
General
– Solution needs to be lean, yet integrated to coexist with legacy point-to-multipoint
(PMP) services
– Adaptive to traffic demands for ad hoc communications to maximize network efficiency
– Opportunistic with respect to the proximity of ad hoc capable MS devices
– Flexible and simple to allow self-optimizing deployment tailored to the environment
– Self-optimized deployment should limit the configuration of an ad hoc relay network to a
small number of short hops
