Contribution to IEEE standard on “4G Broadband Wireless Networks”

  • Title of the contribution: Proposed Change for Acknowledging the Sleep Cycle Configuration Change Initiated Using Service Specific BR without STID Header in IEEE 802.16m
    Abstract: This contribution proposes methods to handle concurrent sleep cycle configuration change initiation in IEEE 802.16m.
    Contributors: Ritesh K Kalle, Debabrata Das, Shantidev Mohanty et. al.
    This has been accepted in IEEE 4G Broad Band Standard by review and voting on dated 18th March 2010, at Orlando, USA. 
  • Title of work: Proposed Change for  Handling Concurrent Sleep Cycle Configuration Change Initiation  in IEEE 802.16m
    Abstract: This contribution proposes amendments in the manner IEEE 802.16m ABS and AMS behave when there are concurrent requests for Sleep Cycle Setting Change or Switch handled at AMS and ABS.
    Contributors: Ritesh K Kalle, Debabrata Das, Shantidev Mohanty et. al.
    This has been accepted in IEEE 4G Broad Band Standard by review and voting on dated 18th March 2010, at Orlando, USA.
  • Title of contribution: “Enhanced Sleep Mode Mechanism in IEEE 802.16m”, Document No.“IEEE C802.16m-09/2518r1” has been accepted via Ballot for IEEE standard for “4G Broadband Wireless Access Networks” on 18th November 2009.
    Contributors: Ritesh K Kalle, Debabrata Das, Shantidev Mohanty et. al
    Abstract: The contribution describes an enhanced mechanism to configure the low power operations on the mobile device (also known as Sleep Mode Mechanism) which has been optimized for Voice over IP (VoIP) sessions. The contribution improves the performance of the existing mechanism in the IEEE 802.16m  by saving power upto 80% during periods when the speaker is silent. Also, the signaling overhead has been reduced by approximately 75% when there is a transition from Silence to Active Talk phase. This additionally increases the VoIP capacity per  Base Station by approximately 2%.
