Abstract
Despite exhibiting very high theoretical data rates, in practice, the performance of LTE-U/LAA and WiFi networks is severely limited under cross-technology coexistence scenarios in the unlicensed 5 GHz band. As a remedy, recent research shows the need for collaboration and coordination among co-located networks. However, enabling such collaboration requires an information exchange that is hard to realize due to completely incompatible network protocol stacks. We propose OfdmFi, the first cross-technology communication scheme that enables direct bidirectional over-the-air communication between LTE-U/LAA and WiFi with minimal overhead to their legacy transmissions. Requiring neither hardware nor firmware changes in commodity technologies, OfdmFi leverages the standard-compliant possibility of generating message-bearing power patterns, similar to punched cards from the early days of computers, in the time-frequency resource grid of an OFDM transmitter which can be cross-observed and decoded by a heterogeneous OFDM receiver. As a proof-of-concept, we have designed and implemented a prototype using commodity devices and SDR platforms. Our comprehensive evaluation reveals that OfdmFi achieves robust bidirectional CTC between both systems with a data rate of up to 84 kbps, which is more than 125x faster than state-of-the-art.
