Wi-Fi Self-Coexistence in the 6 GHz Band: An ns-3 Evaluation of LPI and SP Usage (opens in new tab)

The U.S. has adopted four power regimes for opera tion in the shared unlicensed 6 GHz band -- standard power (SP), low-power indoor (LPI), geofenced variable power (GVP), and very low power (VLP) -- with maximum permitted EIRP levels of 36 dBm, 30 dBm, 24 dBm, and 14 dBm, respectively. Although these regimes are primarily intended to protect incumbent services, their heterogeneous transmit power levels also introduce additional coexistence cha...
