  • Page 51: Wireless Operation

    Chapter 1: Product description Wireless operation Wireless operation This section describes how the 450 Platform Family wireless link is operated, including modulation modes, power control and security. Time division duplexing The system uses Time Division Duplexing (TDD) – one channel alternately transmits and receives rather than using one channel for transmitting and a second channel for receiving.
  • Page 52 Chapter 1: Product description Wireless operation TDD frame parameters The TDD burst duration varies depending on the following:  Channel Bandwidth  Cyclic Prefix  Frame Period  Frame configuration - Downlink Data  Link operation – Dynamic Rate Adaptation OFDM and channel bandwidth The PMP/PTP 450 Platform Family transmits using Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM).
  • Page 53: Table 9 Modulation Levels

    Chapter 1: Product description Wireless operation The 5ms frame period configuration provides higher throughput as a result of reduced frame overhead during transmission. In turn, the 2.5 ms frame period configuration affords reduced latency in the system, half of that introduced by the 5 ms frame configuration. Frame configuration - Downlink Data The percentage of frame assigned to transport downlink data.
  • Page 54: Encryption

    Chapter 1: Product description Wireless operation Encryption The 450 Platform Family supports optional encryption for data transmitted over the wireless link. The 450 Platform Family supports the following forms of encryption for security of the wireless link:  DES (Data Encryption Standard): An over-the-air link encryption option that uses secret 56-bit keys and 8 parity bits.
  • Page 55 Chapter 1: Product description Wireless operation This is contrast to a traditional wireless system, where two wireless nodes cannot communicate on the same channel to the same access point at the same time, without causing significant self- interference and degrading the overall wireless network performance. A MU-MIMO access point estimates and measures what a transmission from each wireless node ‘sounds like’, by applying knowledge of the wireless path characteristics between the access point and node.

    Chapter 3: System planning Security planning Encrypting downlink broadcasts An AP can be enabled to encrypt downlink broadcast packets such as the following:   NetBIOS  broadcast packets containing video data on UDP. The encryption used is DES for a DES-configured module and AES for an AES-configured module. Before the Encrypt Downlink Broadcast feature is enabled on the AP, air link security must be enabled on the AP.
