Energy Detection of (Ultra-)Wideband PPM
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, energy detectors are developed for wideband and ultra-wideband (UWB) pulse position modulation (PPM). Exact bit error probability (BEP) expressions are presented under different assumptions about the channel. More specifically, we present an expression for the instantaneous BEP for a specific channel realization as well as an expression for the average BEP for an i.i.d. zero-mean Gaussian channel. Simulation results corroborate the precision of the expressions.

On the achievable rates of ultra-wideband PPM with non-coherent detection in multipath environments
In this work we investigate the achievable rates of ultra-wideband (UWB) systems using a m-ary pulse position modulation (PPM) with non-coherent receivers in multipath fading environments. We derive a random coding bound on the achievable information rates and highlight the influence of system parameters (bandwidth, delay spread). We also investigate the effect of the use of hard decisions prio...

This paper presents a low-cost compact planar microstrip-fed monopole antenna and its four-element array design for ultra-wideband (UWB) wireless communication and target detection applications, respectively, operating in the frequency span of 3 GHz to 11 GHz. A prototype was fabricated and then measured based on optimal parameters. The results of reflection coefficient (S11) and radiation patt...
متن کاملUWB system based on energy detection of derivatives of the Gaussian pulse
A new method for energy detection ultra-wideband systems is proposed. The transmitter of this method uses two pulses that are different-order derivatives of the Gaussian pulse to transmit bit 0 or 1. These pulses are appropriately chosen to separate their spectra in the frequency domain. The receiver is composed of two energydetection branches. Each branch has a filter which captures the signal...
متن کاملIntegration interval and threshold evaluation for an energy detector receiver with PPM and OOK modulations
In this paper, we are evaluating the performances of energy detector receiver with on-off-keying (OOK) and pulse position modulation (PPM) in ultra wideband (UWB) communications. Energy detector (ED) receivers are considered as a lowcomplexity and low-power consumption option for the more complex coherent receivers. Obviously, the tradeoff for low complexity is degraded detection performance. A...

The paper investigates chirp pulse compression as a signal dimension reduction technique in non-coherent Impulse-Radio Ultra-Wideband (IR–UWB) communications. Two common types of non-coherent IR–UWB detection are considered, energy detection of IR–UWB Pulse Position Modulated (PPM) symbols and sample-wise differential detection of Differential Phase Shift Keying (DPSK) IR–UWB symbols, as well a...
