Abstract

An ultrawide band (UWB) signal model is proposed to estimate the angle-of-arrivals of the signals arrived in clusters at an UWB receiver for a short-range, high-speed, indoor wireless communication system in an elliptical scattering environment. And a new estimation technique is proposed by modifying the conventional MUSIC algorithm. By using this estimation technique, the estimates of the two unknown parameter sets, angle-of-arrivals and distribution parameters, are obtained with the proposed UWB signal model. The proposed UWB signal model and estimation technique are verified through computer simulations in an ultrawide band communication environment.

타원형 산란 무선 채널 환경에서 고속 단거리 옥내 무선 통신용 초광대역 수신기의 입력에 클러스터 형태로 도착하는 신호의 도착 방향을 추정하기 위해 새로 초광대역 신호 모형을 제안한다. 추정 기법은 일반적인 다중신호분류 기법을 변경한 알고리즘이며, 제안된 추정 기법을 초광대역 신호 모형에 적용하여 두 종류의 매개변수인 신호 도착방향 변수와 퍼짐 변수를 얻는다. 제안한 신호 모형과 추정 기법은 초광대역 타원형 산란 무선 통신 환경 안에서 컴퓨터 모의실험을 통해 검증된다.
