Why cognitive radio matters
Spectrum challenges for the warfighter are                              Civilian and host nation operators are
multiplied by global operations and jamming                             demanding additional spectrum resources for

Traditional approach …

► Cognitive radio identifies spectrum that is not
  being fully used …
► … and dynamically tunes to those frequencies if
  interference is detected on channel currently in
  use (DSA)
► Priority is to minimize interference to other
  devices by ‘running away’
► Often, alternative channel choice preset (and can
  be predicted and hacked/jammed)




  The focus on ‘running away’ from interference does a poor job of optimizing all available
  spectrum resources i.e., Grey/Black Spaces, not “White Spaces”

… vs. xMax approach

► Advanced sensing and multi-spatial interference
  mitigation and avoidance technologies offer the ability
    −    both to mitigate interference, which extends “dwell
         time” on the current frequency …
    −    … and avoid interference by hopping to other ‘cleaner’
         channel instantly if interference is overwhelming and
         performance falls below set thresholds (within 40ms)
► In addition, to maximize throughput (or range) and
  minimize interference, xMax dynamically adapts
  network architecture to real-time conditions

    −    modulation
    −    channel plan
    −    network protocol

xMax cognitive radio
► xMax layered cognitive approach
   −     spectrum sensing: interference based detection of transmitters (background scan every
         20ms)
   −     spatial processing: MIMO technologies allow resistance to interferers. Optimize SNR using
         multiple antenna processing to improve link budget and data rates. Also used to track and
         cancel interference from multiple mobile transmitters using sophisticated multi-spatial
         signal processing algorithms
   −     spectrum sharing: able to operate in crowded shared spectrum (ISM, UNI II etc.). Detect
         interferers, mitigate them or avoid them by changing operating parameters or frequencies
   −     spectrum management: capture the best available spectrum for use at any time. Can add
         capacity anywhere, any time without using existing frequencies
   −     spectrum mobility: use spectrum dynamically (DSA). Mobile user terminals and base
         stations can decide to change bands where they operate
 “Unlike other cognitive radio systems currently being trialed, xMax features advanced interference detection and
 avoidance capabilities designed to work around both intentional and unintentional interference. ”

         . . . ., the military has opted to conduct its own tests . . .And
         the xMax system tested at Fort Bliss was “exceptionally
         impressive,” according to Mike McCarthy, director of
         operations for the Mission Command Complex at the Brigade
         Modernization Command at Fort Bliss



McCarthy said the military plans to conduct further tests in the spring to “push that system as far as we can push it”

“The results of these tests should be of interest to many, not just those in the military. If the xMax system proves that it can provide
reliable communications over unlicensed spectrum, the utility of unlicensed bands and prospects for wireless communications
operating in the TV white spaces could be transformed in the near future”

Key benefits xMax offers military

► Self-frequency planning - the system comes up automatically and finds available
  frequencies; no manual frequency co-ordination required
► Self-optimizing- the system uses DSA technology to maximize throughput and
  reliability, delivering a licensed spectrum experience in unlicensed spectrum
► Leverages existing smartphones, laptops, tablets, etc. directly into the xMax
  mobile radio network to save costs and offer unmatched applications and
  functionality
► End-to-end IP architecture - simplifies integration with LTE, P25 and other
  networks via industry standard interfaces and protocols; voice can be tagged
  and prioritized end-to-end through network for high reliability
► Tactical and scalable deployments – rapidly deployable size and weight, proven
  integration with satellite and point to point backhaul radios
► Difficult to jam or hack – dynamic channel/band hopping makes jamming
  attacks and penetrations far more difficult than traditional radio systems

  • 5. Traditional approach … ► Cognitive radio identifies spectrum that is not being fully used … ► … and dynamically tunes to those frequencies if interference is detected on channel currently in use (DSA) ► Priority is to minimize interference to other devices by ‘running away’ ► Often, alternative channel choice preset (and can be predicted and hacked/jammed) The focus on ‘running away’ from interference does a poor job of optimizing all available spectrum resources i.e., Grey/Black Spaces, not “White Spaces” The information presented herein is confidential and subject to change without notice. xG® and xMax® are registered trademarks of xG Technology, Inc.

  • 6. … vs. xMax approach ► Advanced sensing and multi-spatial interference mitigation and avoidance technologies offer the ability − both to mitigate interference, which extends “dwell time” on the current frequency … − … and avoid interference by hopping to other ‘cleaner’ channel instantly if interference is overwhelming and performance falls below set thresholds (within 40ms) ► In addition, to maximize throughput (or range) and minimize interference, xMax dynamically adapts network architecture to real-time conditions − power output − modulation − channel plan − network protocol xG’s cognitive radio network solution dynamically optimizes spectrum utilization through opportunistic use of all available resources The information presented herein is confidential and subject to change without notice. xG® and xMax® are registered trademarks of xG Technology, Inc.

  • 7. xMax cognitive radio ► xMax layered cognitive approach − spectrum sensing: interference based detection of transmitters (background scan every 20ms) − spatial processing: MIMO technologies allow resistance to interferers. Optimize SNR using multiple antenna processing to improve link budget and data rates. Also used to track and cancel interference from multiple mobile transmitters using sophisticated multi-spatial signal processing algorithms − spectrum sharing: able to operate in crowded shared spectrum (ISM, UNI II etc.). Detect interferers, mitigate them or avoid them by changing operating parameters or frequencies − spectrum management: capture the best available spectrum for use at any time. Can add capacity anywhere, any time without using existing frequencies − spectrum mobility: use spectrum dynamically (DSA). Mobile user terminals and base stations can decide to change bands where they operate “Unlike other cognitive radio systems currently being trialed, xMax features advanced interference detection and avoidance capabilities designed to work around both intentional and unintentional interference. ” – White Paper: “ New Approaches To Optimizing Radio Spectrum” (Andrew Seybold), December 2011 The information presented herein is confidential and subject to change without notice. xG® and xMax® are registered trademarks of xG Technology, Inc.

Game changing capabilities Military tests of xG Technology solution could have domestic implications Nov 16, 2011 5:58 PM, By Donny Jackson (donald.jackson@penton.com) . . . .commercial-wireless executives have been outspoken in proclaiming a “spectrum crisis” that federal policymakers have been working feverishly to resolve . . .. . . . ., the military has opted to conduct its own tests . . .And the xMax system tested at Fort Bliss was “exceptionally impressive,” according to Mike McCarthy, director of operations for the Mission Command Complex at the Brigade Modernization Command at Fort Bliss McCarthy said the military plans to conduct further tests in the spring to “push that system as far as we can push it” “The results of these tests should be of interest to many, not just those in the military. If the xMax system proves that it can provide reliable communications over unlicensed spectrum, the utility of unlicensed bands and prospects for wireless communications operating in the TV white spaces could be transformed in the near future” The information presented herein is confidential and subject to change without notice. xG® and xMax® are registered trademarks of xG Technology, Inc.
