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

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.

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
