Pseudo-Chaotic Time Hopping For UWB Impulse Radio
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we propose a pseudo-chaotic modulation suitable for ultrawide-bandwidth impulse-radio communication systems. The coding scheme is based upon controlling the symbolic dynamics of a chaotic map for encoding the digital information to be transmitted. The pseudo-chaotic time hopping enhances the spread-spectrum characteristics of the system, by removing most periodic components from the transmitted signal. A maximum-likelihood detector for the proposed scheme is presented and its scalability features are illustrated. Finally, theoretical performance bounds for both soft and hard Viterbi decoding are derived and compared with the simulation results.

Noncoherent Uwb Impulse Radio and Fm-dcsk: What Makes Them Different
For lack of empty radio bands, ultrawideband (UWB) radio system allowing reuse of already occupied frequency bands is the only solution to accommodate new wireless data communication services. Two types of UWB carriers are considered here, the frequency-shifted Gaussian pulse and chaotic signal with FM-DCSK modulation. A generalized model of transmitted reference systems is introduced first tha...

Ultra Wide Band (UWB) impulse radio, promises to be suitable for short-range, low-power, low cost and high data rate applications. While most UWB research is concentrating on the physical layer, little research has been published on the link layer. The fundamental operations in the link layer need to take into account the specifics of impulse radio and also the particular features of ad hoc net...
متن کاملBER performance and spectral properties of interleaved convolutional time hopping for UWB impulse radio
Interleaved convolutional time hopping (ICTH) is a recently proposed coding/modulation scheme for UWB impulse radio. ICTH is based upon a low-rate convolutional code, with optimized distance properties, combined with multilevel pulseposition modulation (PPM). In this context, bit-interleaved coded modulation (BICM) is used to decorrelate the bit errors and, more importantly, to obtain a flat sp...

Pseudochaotic time hopping (PCTH) is a recently proposed encoding/modulation scheme for ultra-wideband (UWB) impulse radio. PCTH exploits concepts from symbolic dynamics to generate aperiodic spreading sequences, resulting in a noise-like spectrum. In this paper, we present a multiple-access technique suitable for the PCTH scheme. In particular, we provide an analytical expression of the bit-er...
متن کاملPulse-Based Polarity Randomization for Ultra Wideband Impulse Radio Systems
Time Hopping (TH) is commonly used for Ultra Wideband Impulse Radio (UWB-IR) systems as a multiple access scheme. Such system suffers from the existence of spectral lines, which in turn require a power back-off of the total signal. Recently, Pulse-based polarity randomization for UWB IR system was proposed. The use of polarity codes can provide additional robustness against the Multiple Access ...
