Current situation
 Current situation Customers are demanding more and more
data applications to be delivered on the go. However, the
operator is using scarce expensive licensed spectrum that is
overburdened with delivering core voice.

 The operator is facing a choice of acquiring more licensed

spectrum or losing customers due to demand for advanced
services.
Cognitive radio

 Cognitive radio : Cognitive radio (CR) is a form of wireless

communication in which a transceiver can intelligently detect
which communication channels are in use and which are not,
and instantly move into vacant channels while avoiding
occupied ones.

 This optimizes the use of available radio-frequency (RF)

spectrum while minimizing interference to other users.
What is XG ?

 xG Technology, Inc. is developer of technology for wireless

communications.

 The company developed cognitive radio technology for mobile

services using licensed or unlicensed radio spectrum.xG’s initial
product is xMax, a carrier-class cognitive radio network. xMax is
a mobile VoIP and broadband data system with an end-to-end
Internet Protocol (IP) system architecture.

 The company deployed a 30-square-mile (78 km2) xMax network

in the Fort Lauderdale, Florida area
xMAX technology

 xMAX technology : xMax’s standards-based IP architecture

minimizes network deployment.

 Using field-proven cognitive radio technology, xMax enables

the delivery of mobile services in both licensed and
unlicensed bands.

 . The following are the major components of the system:

 xMod
 xAp
 xMSC
 x Monitor/x Drive
Xmod

 Xmod : The xMod is a small battery that bridges the COTS

end user device to the wideband transport layer of the xMax
system.
 Devices connected via secure Wi-Fi links.
 The xMod can deliver up to 3.5Mbps to the connected end
user device(s).
 Xap

 Xap : The xAP acts as a compact, high-performance base

station and wirelessly connects to the xMod using the xMax
cognitive networking waveform.
 Each xAP can deliver up to 14 Mbps to its associated xMods.
 xAPs may be deployed individually or in clusters of up to 9
xAPs to increase total throughput.
 Xmsc

 X msc: The xMSC acts as both a base station controller and

aggregation point for the connected xAPs.

 The xMSC is typically connected to the worldwide Internet.

x Monitor/x Drive
xMonitor is a component of the xMax-xMSC that monitors the
status and health of xMax network elements. It provides end-to-end
IP network management and monitoring services, services, allowing
support personnel to quickly gather information about xMax
networks.

xDrive is a drive mapping utility designed to gather, display, and log

performance statistics from xMod and xVM mobile hotspot devices.
It allows field technicians to map the coverage of a deployment of
xMax access points (downlink), as well as providing user-to-network
(uplink) statistics.
Working of x-Max Technology
 WORKING OF XMAX TECHNOLOGY-

 ADVANCED COGNITIVE SENSING.

 MITIGATING INTERFERENCE.

 ADVANCED ANTENNA.
Advanced Cognitive Sensing
 Conventional, or “dumb” radios, have been designed with the
assumption that they were operating in a spectrum band that was
free of interference. As a result, there was no requirement to
endow these radios with the ability to dynamically change
parameters, channels or spectrum bands in response to
interference.

 xMax cognitive radios can identify potential impairments to

communications quality, like interference, path loss, shadowing
and multipath fading. They can then adjust their transmitting
parameters, such as power output, frequency, and modulation to
ensure an optimized communications experience for users.
Mitigating Interference

 interference works against reliable and efficient wireless

communications. Interference can negatively impact
performance and coverage, and is the chief limiting factor in
high-capacity mobile systems. interference is responsible in
many cases for dropped calls, slow download speeds and
shortened battery life.
 xMax leverages proprietary xG developed technology to
implement two key approaches to dealing with interference.
 The first is Dynamic Spectrum Access (DSA) and
 Second one is by using 2x4 MIMO antenna configurations.
Dynamic Spectrum Access (DSA)
 xMax uses its real time sensing of interference on a channel
to instantly change channels when better frequencies are
detected. However, xMax goes beyond simple DSA by
incorporating sophisticated interference mitigation (IM)
software that enables xMax to reliably operate on
interference laden channels that other radio systems could
not operate on. When xG’s interference mitigation
technology is added to its DSA capabilities, xMax can greatly
increase the capacity of both new and existing spectrum
assets.
2x4 MIMO antenna configurations.

 The xMax radios employ new and powerful parallel processing

digital signal processers and computer processing units
(DSP/CPU) that support speeds up to 50 Giga OPS (billion
operations per second) for signal processing. This capable
processor, combined with 2x4 MIMO antenna configurations,
enables the xMax system to use patent-pending spatial processing
software to remove unwanted interference from the target xMax
signals. Each xMax cognitive radio can simultaneously mitigate up
to 24 mobile sources of interference or jamming. By using xMax’s
multi antenna technology to separate unwanted interference from
desired xMax signals, xG is able to offer robust and reliable links
in conditions that would cause other radio systems to completely
fail
2x4 MIMO antenna configurations.

 In Military applications.

 In Location-based services.
Advantages
 Quality of service (QoS) to support long ranges mobile VoIP.

 Header compression.

 Soft hand- off mechanism.

 No spectrum license costs.

Future Scope

 The XMAX™ technology can provide fixed, nomadic,

portable solution and with OFDMA at the heart of the
technology, it can also deliver mobile wireless broadband
connectivity across vast open and congested areas, over many
kilometres.

 By using low power we can provide high data rate over

longer distance.

 Broad coverage is possible.

 service provided to more number of customers using free

licensed spectrum which is cost effective.
