Ultra-Wideband Antenna Arrays: Systems with Transfer Function and Impulse Response
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper proposes some approaches to model Ultra Wideband (UWB) antenna arrays. Based on the array factor, often stipulated as not adapted for the description of the properties of UWB arrays in the literature, an analytical expression of the beampattern is developed. The achieved results are coherent with other formulations and empiric studies proposed in the literature. Furthermore, a time-frequency modeling of UWB antenna arrays is proposed using the concept of array factor and antenna effective length.

An ultra-wide-band (UWB), stripline-fed Vivaldi antenna is characterized both numerically and experimentally. Three-dimensional far-field measurements are conducted and accurate antenna gain and efficiency as well as gain variation versus frequency in the boresight direction are measured. Using two Vivaldi antennas, a free-space communication link is set up. The impulse response of the cascaded...

متن کاملPulsed ALOHA - a Form of Multiaccess UWB Communications
Pulsed ALOHA is a form of impulse Ultra-Wideband communication where a bit is carried with each pulse, rather than using a time spreading code. Pulsed ALOHA and Wideband ALOHA are perfect fits to low energy wide-bandwidth communication. They permit energy-efficient higher data rates. Pulsed ALOHA has some unique advantages in collision avoidance and collision tolerance over Wideband ALOHA, when...
