IEEE 802. 16 MAC -- CPS – Data Packet Encapsulations

IEEE 802. 16 MAC – CPS – Uplink Service Classes ¡ UGS: Unsolicited Grant Services ¡ rt. PS: Real-time Polling Services ¡ nrt. PS: Non-real-time Polling Services ¡ BE: Best Effort
IEEE 802. 16 MAC – CPS – Uplink Services: UGS ¡ UGS: Unsolicited Grant Services For CBR-like services, e. g. , T 1/E 1. l The BS scheduler offers fixed size UL BW grants on a real-time periodic basis. l The SS does not need to send any explicit UL BW req. l
IEEE 802. 16 MAC – CPS – Uplink Services: rt. PS ¡ rt. PS: l l Real-time Polling Services For rt-VBR-like services, e. g. , MPEG video. The BS scheduler offers real-time, periodic, UL BW request opportunities. The SS uses the offered UL BW req. opportunity to specify the desired UL BW grant. The SS cannot use contention-based BW req.
IEEE 802. 16 MAC – CPS – Uplink Services: nrt. PS ¡ nrt. PS: non-real-time polling services l l l For nrt-VBR-like services, such as, bandwidth-intensive file transfer.

IEEE 802. 16 MAC – CPS – Uplink Services: BE ¡ BE: Best Effort For best-effort traffic, e. g. , HTTP, SMTP. l The SS uses the contention-based BW request opportunities. l
IEEE 802. 16 MAC – CPS – Bandwidth Grant ¡ BW grants are per Subscriber Station: l l Allows real-time reaction to Qo. S need, i. e. , SS may redistribute bandwidth among its connections, maintaining Qo. S and service-level agreements Lower overhead, i. e. , less UL-MAP entries compare to grant per connection Off- loading base station’s work Requires intelligent subscriber station to redistribute the allocated BW among connections
IEEE 802. 16 MAC – CPS – BW Request/Grant Mechanisms ¡ ¡ Implicit requests (UGS): No actual requests BW request messages, i. e. , BW req. header l l l ¡ Piggybacked request (for non-UGS services only) l l l ¡ Sends in either a contention-based BW req. slot or a regular UL allocation for the SS; he special B Requests up to 32 KB with a single message Request Incremental or aggregate, as indicated by MAC header– Presented in Grant Management (GM) sub-header in a data MAC PDU of the same UL connection is always incremental Up to 32 KB per request for the CID Poll-Me bit l l Presented in the GM sub-header on a UGS connection request a bandwidth req. opportunity for non-UGS services
IEEE 802. 16 MAC – CPS -- Contention UL Access ¡ Two types of Contention based UL slots l l ¡ Initial Ranging ¡ Used for new SS to join the system ¡ Requires a long preamble BW Request ¡ Used for sending BW req ¡ Short preamble Collision Detection and Resolution l l Detection: SS does not get the expected response in a given time Resolution: a truncated binary exponential backoff window

IEEE 802. 16 MAC – CPS – Ranging ¡ ¡ Ranging is a process of acquiring the correct timing offset, and PHY parameters, such as, Tx power level, frequency offset, etc. so that the SS can communicate with the BS correctly. BS performs measurements and feedback. SS performs necessary adjustments. Two types of Ranging: l l Initial ranging: for a new SS to join the system Periodic ranging (also called maintenance ranging): dynamically maintain a good RF link.
IEEE 802. 16 MAC – CPS – Automatic Repeat re. Quest (ARQ) ¡ ¡ ¡ ¡ A Layer-2 sliding-window based flow control mechanism. Per connection basis. Only effective to non-real-time applications. Uses a 11 -bit sequence number field. Uses CRC-32 checksum of MAC PDU to check data errors. Maintain the same fragmentation structure for Retransmission. Optional.
IEEE 802. 16 MAC – Privacy Sub-layer (PS) ¡ Two Major Functions: l l ¡ Secures over-the-air transmissions Protects from theft of service Two component protocols: l l Data encryption protocol A client/server model based Key management protocol (Privacy Key Management, or PKM)
IEEE 802. 16 MAC – PS -- Security Associations ¡ ¡ A set of privacy information, e. g. , encryption keys, used encryption algorithm Three types of Security Associations (SAs) l l l ¡ ¡ Primary SA: established during initial registration Static SA: provisioned within the BS Dynamic SA: dynamically created on the fly Identified by a 16 -bit SAID Connections are mapped to SAs
IEEE 802. 16 MAC – PS -- Multi-level Keys and Their Usage ¡ Public Key l l l ¡ Authorization Key (AK) l l ¡ Provided by BS to SS at authorization Used to derive KEK Key Encryption Key (KEK) l l ¡ Contained in X. 509 digital certificate Issued by SS manufacturers Used to encrypt AK Derived from AK Used to encrypt TEK Traffic Encryption Key (TEK) l l Provided by BS to SS at key exchange Used to encrypt traffic data payload
IEEE 802. 16 MAC – PS -- Data Encryption ¡ ¡ Use DES (Data Encryption Standard) in CBC (Cipher Block Chaining) mode with IV (Initialization Vector). CBC IV is calculated from l l ¡ ¡ ¡ IV parameter in TEK keying info; and PHY synchronization field in DL-MAP. Only MAC PDU payload (including subheaders) is encrypted. MAC PDU headers are unencrypted. Management messages are unencrypted.
