چکیده

Ultra Wideband (UWB) systems are receiving recently more attention due to its approval by FCC. The systems that have been already implemented are based in analog correlation. This thesis is part of an effort to implement a wholly digital Ultra Wideband receiver. Synchronization of a signal is a first step to perform the correct demodulation of the data contained in it. It is a problem whose complexity does not scale linearly with the bandwidth of the received signal. In UWB bandwidths are over 1 GHz, and the synchronization process has an important impact in the overhead needed in each data packet compared to the amount of information. In this thesis, the synchronization subsystem of an all digital UWB receiver is designed, taking into account the specific properties of UWB signals. Thesis Supervisor: Anantha P.

Coarse acquisition for ultra wideband digital receivers

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 aff...

Design of the Compact Ultra-Wideband (UWB) Antenna Bandwidth Optimization Using Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm

In this paper a particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is presented to design a compact stepped triangle shape antenna in order to obtain the proper UWB bandwidth as defined by FCC. By changing the various cavity dimensions of the antenna, data to develop PSO program in MATLAB is achieved. The results obtained from the PSO algorithm are applied to the antenna design to fine-tune the bandwi...

Design of an Ultra-Wideband Monopole Antenna by Using New Nano-Composite Materials

In this paper, a planar monopole antenna is introduced, also we added some new Nano fillers such as Fumed Silica and Aluminum Oxide to RT Duriod5880 and RO3003 to produce new Nano composite materials, then new Nano composite materials are used as a substrate of a ultra-wideband monopole antenna. Antenna characteristics are considered to illustrate that, by using these Nano composite materials, ...

A reconfigurable software defined ultra-wideband impulse radio transceiver

An ultra-wideband (UWB) software defined radio (SDR) implementation is presented. The developed impulse radio (IR) transceiver employs first order bandpass (BP) sampling at a conversion frequency which is four times the channel bandwidth. The subsampling architecture directly provides the RF signal avoiding any non-ideal mixer stages and reduces the requirements of digital signal processing imp...
