چکیده

The performance of a RAKE receiver for a pulse based ultra-wideband (UWB) communications system is studied in a realistic channel model that is based on an extensive set of indoor channel measurements. The RAKE receiver is shown to contribute to a mitigation of the ISI. In particular, at low input SNR values and small number of RAKE taps, it is shown that employing additional RAKE taps for energy capture is more important to overall system performance than employing equalization to combat the ISI. The performance of the RAKE with some realistic channel estimation errors is also studied.

Low complexity RAKE receiver for TH-based multiuser UWB system with realistic UWB indoor channel

We have considered multiuser communication scenario with ultra wideband (UWB) communication. UWB device is transmitting the data by time hopping (TH)-based system, TH-PPM, TH-PAM and DS-UWB. The UWB device is transmitting data over multipath rich channel model recommended by IEEE 802.15.3a working group. This channel model is based on Saleh-Valenzuela model. For better performance at receiver s...
