Coarse acquisition for ultra wideband digital receivers
نویسندگان
چکیده
Ultra wideband (UWB) radio is a new wireless technology that uses sub-nanosecond pulses to transmit information, resulting in a bandwidth greater than 1 GHz. The problem of synchronizing a receiver with the incoming signal grows in complexity as the signal bandwidth increases. This paper addresses coarse synchronization in UWB receivers. It analyzes how the design of the correlation process affects the time to achieve synchronization, highlighting the importance of the probability of false alarm in its performance.

Low-complexity Subspace Methods for Channel Estimation and Synchronization in Ultra-wideband Systems
We consider the problem of low-complexity channel estimation in digital ultra-wideband receivers. We extend some of our recent sampling results for certain classes of parametric non-bandlimited signals and develop several methods that take advantage of transform techniques to estimate channel parameters from a low-dimensional subspace of a received signal, that is, by sampling the signal below ...

We consider the problem of low-complexity timing synchronization in digital receivers for DS-CDMA and UWB systems operating over channels with single or multiple propagation paths. We extend some of our recent sampling results for certain classes of non-bandlimited signals and develop a method that takes advantage of transform techniques to perform propagation delay estimation from a lowdimensi...

Timing acquisition is critical to enabling the potential of ultra-wideband (UWB) radios in high-speed, short-range indoor wireless networking. An effective timing acquisition method should not only operate at a low sampling rate to reduce implementation complexity and synchronization time, but also be able to collect sufficient signal energy in order to operate in a reasonable transmit SNR regi...

Ultra-wideband (UWB) radio is a promising technology for low-cost, high-rate communications at short ranges. However, high bandwidth and low power of the UWB signals impose some difficult challenges in signal processing and implementation of the receiver. Acquisition of the signal timing is the first task to be performed in a coherent receiver. The high bandwidth of UWB signals demand for fine ...
