Radio Coverage Extension of the FCC-Compliant Low-Rate UWB Networking Devices
نویسندگان
چکیده
In UWB systems three factors have to be considered to design a radio link: (i) peakand (ii) average power limits defined by FCC Regulations and (iii) low supply voltage available in handheld cheap devices. An exact mathematical model for the interpretation of FCC Regulations is derived. The radio coverage of UWB networking devices is determined and a chaos-based approach for the coverage extension is proposed.

FCC-Compliant Operation of Low-Rate UWB Impulse Radio Applying Multiple Pulses per Bit
Starting from the FCC Regulations and the IEEE UWB standard this contribution derives the required specifications for the blocks of UWB transceivers. It shows that if CMOS technology is used then the coverage of UWB impulse radio is limited by the low supply voltage. To overcome this limit more than one UWB carrier pulse is used to keep transmitted energy per bit high enough but to reduce the r...
متن کاملImpulse Wavelet versus Chaotic Carrier: Selection of Optimum Carrier for Uwb Radio
Data communications is going to wireless everywhere, from computer keyboard to Internet, from sensor networks to embedded systems. The spread of wireless communications is blocked by the fact that the radio channels have been already assigned to conventional communication systems and except a very few and crowded ISM bands there are no empty channels. Radio communications via channels already o...

Ultra-wideband (UWB) radio is a transmission technology that is based on short pulses, whose spectral width is on the order of several GHz. UWB signals are free of sine-wave carriers, and their duty cycle and power spectral density are low. These characteristics provide UWB radio with unique advantages: improved immunity to multi-path fading, increased ranging resolution, large tolerance to int...

With portable electronics and wireless sensor networks becoming increasingly pervasive, energy efficient radios have become an active area of research [1-3]. A critical figure of merit (FOM) for measuring radio efficiency in such applications is energy per bit. Though sub-nJ/b data reception is achievable for data rates >100Mb/s using optimized coherent architectures [4], there is a need for si...
