چکیده

An ultra-wideband impulse receiver capable of detecting sub-200psec pulses is presented. The chip detects a specific zero-crossing of an incoming pulse and mitigates the undesired effects of ringing. The time detection sensitivity of the chip is limited by the jitter of the incoming pulse rather than the pulse width. A mean RMS jitter of 94fsec is recorded, which translates to the localization accuracy of sub-30μm. The chip is fabricated in IBM 130nm SiGe BiCMOS process technology.

Performance Evaluation of an Improved Multiband Impulse Radio UWB Communication System Based on Sub-Band Selection

Performance evaluation of an improved multiband impulse radio ultra-wideband (MIR UWB) system based on sub-band selection is proposed in this paper. In the improved scheme, a data mapping algorithm is introduced to a conventional MIR UWB system, and out of all the sub-bands, only partial ones are selected to transmit information data, which can improve the flexibility of sub-bands/spectrum allo...

Ultra-Wideband Geo-Regioning: A Novel Clustering and Localization Technique

Ultra-wideband (UWB) technology enables a high temporal resolution of the propagation channel. Consequently, a channel impulse response between transmitter and receiver can be interpreted as signature for their relative positions. If the position of the receiver is known, the channel impulse response indicates the position of the transmitter and vice versa. This work introduces UWB geo-regionin...

Adaptive Adjustment of Integration Time for BPSK Based Ultra-Wideband Frequency Hopping Receiver

The frequency hopping (FH) based ultra-wideband (UWB) communication system divides its available frequency spectrum into several sub-bands, which leads to inherent disparities between carrier frequencies of each sub-band. Since the propagation loss is proportional to the square of the transmission frequency, the propagation loss on the sub-band having the highest carrier frequency is much large...

Slocalization: Sub-μW Ultra Wideband Backscatter Localization

Ultra wideband technology has shown great promise for providing high-quality location estimation, even in complex indoor multipath environments, but existing ultra wideband systems require tens to hundreds of milliwatts during operation. Backscatter communication has demonstrated the viability of astonishingly low-power tags, but has thus far been restricted to narrowband systems with low local...

Outage Probability Bound and Diversity Gain for Ultra-Wideband Multiple-Access Relay Channels with Correlated Noises

In this paper, Ultra-wideband (UWB) multiple access relay channel with correlated noises at the relay and receiver is investigated. We obtain outer and inner bounds for the IEEE 802.15.3a UWB multiple access relay channel, and also, a diversity gain bound. Finally, we evaluate some results numerically and show that noise correlation coefficients play important role in determining relay position.
