II. Proposed Preamble

• Main Features– Uses 80MHz channel and meets all functional

requirements for a VHT preamble– Three preamble modes to minimize overhead– Seamless upgrade from 802.11n preamble– Almost identical PAPR characteristics with

802.11n– Comparable Preamble Efficiency to 802.11n

Conclusion

• We have been developing an 80MHz BW WLAN preamble which has backward compatibility with IEEE802.11a/n system.

• The proposed preamble has comparable efficiency compared to IEEE802.11n’s preamble.

• The proposed preamble has comparable PAPR with IEEE802.11n’s preamble.
