Re: Information of PER for shared antenna? -- missing 802.15.2?

Title:
So, where would I find it?

Also, I got more info on the applicaton.  I was correct on the point that receive/send syncs are happening already.  What was being asked was: is there any coexistence information about having two different radios use the same antenna for transmitting at the same time?  I would have characterized this as co-operation, except the desire is to characterize the effect of dot11 and Bluetooth creating interference with each other once they are in the air -- sort of a cross-fading effect.

Any thoughts?

Hi Steve,

I just went looking for 802.15.2 at http://ieee802.org/15/pub/TG2.html 
and the link does not seem to be functional.  Any idea why it is not
online?

Thanks Steve,

For reasons not clear now (but clear then) I was specifically not 
allowed to be associated with 15.2 by my employer, and I never went 
back and studied it later.  I'll check it out.

I suspect the AWMA is a bank-switch signaling mechanism, which I think
    

  
is already being used.  I'll verify, but what I believe is being asked
    

  
is being asked is any data/analysis on induced errors because of 
proximity of another transmitter.

As far as Bluetooth and 11n are concerned, it may well be that the 
Bluetooth SIG as an organization is not interested in the interaction 
with 11n, but some of the members definitely are.  I will see what 
interest I can generate from Cambridge about participation in the 
analysis.

Tom,

    Back in the old days, IEEE 802.15.2 had a coexistence mechanism
called "Alternating Wireless Medium Access" (AWMA).  It is a simple
technique and it allows sharing of an antenna.

    By the way, did the Bluetooth SIG ever want to discuss AFH and
11n?  I sent an email to John Barr but never heard back.

Subject: Information of PER for shared antenna?

Hello All,

I was asked if there is any data or analysis available for
      
understanding
  
issues involved with the design of an RF front-end for a Bluetooth
      
chip
  
and a 802.11 chip to share an antenna.
They have asked for some information about the effect of interferer
dot.11 signal strengths on Bluetooth bit error rates to help optimise
the design.

Any thoughts?
