چکیده
As part of a multi-channel, multi-band evaluation platform for future wireless sensor network applications, an IEEE 802.15.4a standard conform transmitter is investigated. The paper gives an overview of our transmitter concept and ultra-wide band signals according to IEEE 802.15.4a. It analyzes the system design aspects of the transmitter for high flexibility such as modularity and independency of dedicated modules from bandwidth and center frequency. The architecture of each module is described in detail and references to alternative solutions are given.

متن کاملRanging Algorithms for Ultrawideband Communication Systems
.In this paper we present ranging algorithms for Ultrawideband (UWB) communications systems and evaluate their performance in indoor propagation environment. Using the UWB transmission technique for ranging is motivated by position accuracy that varies with the inverse of the bandwidth; the larger the bandwidth, the finer the time resolution and therefore the greater the obtained accuracy. We s...
متن کاملUltra Wideband Channel Model for IEEE 802.15.4a and Performance Comparison of DBPSK/OQPSK Systems
Ultra Wideband (UWB) is a radio technology that can be used at very low energy levels for short-range high-bandwidth communications by using a large portion of the radio spectrum. Ultra Wideband (UWB) systems transmit signals across a much wider frequency than conventional systems and are usually very difficult to detect. The focus of this research is to model the Ultra wideband (UWB) channel f...
