Designing Delay Lines Based on GDRR for TR-UWB Systems

چکیده
Designing a non-ideal delay line (DL) with phase distortion in a transmitted-reference ultra-wideband system (TR-UWB) with an autocorrelation receiver (AcR) is a great technical challenge. Differing from the currently empirical design method of DL, in this paper a semi-analytic approach is proposed through Gaussian approximation of the expression for conditional bit error rate (BER), based on investigation on the degradation of average BER caused by a group delay ripple range (GDRR) over independent Nakagami-m fading channels. This GDRR-based design method can directly evaluate its effects on the system performance and determine the acceptable phase distortion level to trade off the BER performance and system complexity.

Designing Delay Lines Based on the SD/DE Algorithm for Transmitted-Reference Ultra-Wideband Systems
This paper studies the design problem of delay lines in Transmitted-Reference Ultra-Wideband (TR-UWB) systems based on a new evolutionary scheme named Stepping-Dichotomy/Differential-Evolution (SD/DE) algorithm. The group delay response, required for the pass-band as an objective of the delay line, is approximated by using a new nonlinear optimization method under a maximin criterion. The proce...

Impulse radio ultra wideband (IR-UWB) communication is becoming an important technology for future Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPANs). One of the critical challenges in IR-UWB system design is the inter-pulse interference (IPI). A Transmit-reference (TR) receiver is proposed to completely remove the IPI especially at low input frame energy-tonoise-ratio (Ef/No) values. This receiver is bas...

متن کاملOptimal and suboptimal receivers for ultra-wideband transmitted reference systems
The optimal receiver for an ultra-wideband transmitted reference (UWB TR) system in a single user multipath environment is derived, based on knowledge of channel properties. The performances of this optimal receiver and other crosscorrelation receivers are analyzed and compared. The usual crosscorrelation receiver which is often used in UWB TR systems is shown to be suboptimal. In addition, an ...

The Markov random field (MRF) theory has been accepted as a highly effective framework for designing noise-tolerant nanometer digital VLSI circuits. In MRF-based design, proper feedback lines are used to control noise and keep the circuits in their valid states. However, this methodology has encountered two major problems that have limited the application of highly noise immune MRF-based circui...
