In this paper, analytical methods for calculating the average probability of bit error of direct sequence pulse amplitude modulation ultra wideband (DS-PAM UWB) system and time hopping pulse position modulation ultra wideband (TH-PPM UWB) system are given. For the multi-user DS-PAM UWB system, the bipolar pulse amplitude modulation is used in order to achieve better performance. As we know, more attention is paid to the TH-PPM UWB systems recently. In this paper. we first introduce the accurate BER calculation methods of the multi-user DS-PAM UWB and TH-PPM UWB systems and then give the performance analysis over the ideal AWGN channel and a correlation receiver. Furthermore, we also introduce their applications in image transmission and data transmission and give the simulation results. The analytical method yields simple and exact formulas relating the performance to the system parameters.

본 논문에서는 다중경로가 무수히 많은 환경에서 다중안테나를 이용하여 고속의 데이터 전송률을 달성하기 위한 초광대역(UWB: Ultra-Wideband) 시스템의 성능 향상에 대해 연구한다. 다중 수신안테나가 제공하는 공간다이버시티와 RAKE 수신기가 제공하는 시간 다이버시티가 2PAM(Binary Pulse Amplitude Modulation) TH(Time Hopping) UWB 통신 시스템의 성능에 미치는 영향을 분석한다. 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 다중수신안테나의 수가 증가함에 따라 TH-UWB 시스템의 BER(Bit Error Rate) 성능이 크게 향상됨을 보인다. 또한 SRAKE(Selective RAKE)에 의해 선택되는 다중경로 성분의 수가 증가할수록 시스템의 성능이 더욱 향상 됨을 확인한다.

Interference from IEEE 802.11a systems affects ultra-wideband (UWB) systems significantly. In this letter, we suggest a novel narrow-band interference (NBI) suppression technique based on the singular value decomposition (SVD) algorithm in time-hopping pulse amplitude modulation (TH-PAM) UWB systems. The SVD algorithm is used to approximate the interference which then is subtracted from the received signals. In contrast to the conventional notch filter and rake receiver, our method is more effective and the receiver complexity can be greatly reduced.

본 논문에서는 다중 안테나 (Multiple-Antenna)를 적용한 초광대역 무선통신 (UWB: Ultra Wide-Band) 시스템에서 이중 이진 터보 부호의 성능을 보인다. 본 논문에서는 PPM-TH (Pulse Position Modulation-Time Hopping) 방식과 PAM-DS (Pulse Amplitude Modulation-Direct Sequence) 방식의 UWB 시스템을 모두 고려하였으며, 다중 안테나 기술로 시공간 블록 부호 (STBC : Space Time Block Code) 송신 다이버시티와 수신 다이버시티 기술을 적용하였다. 그리고 이진 터보 부호에 비해서 부호어 사이의 최소 거리 (Minimum Distance)가 길어서 복호 성능이 좋으며 처리량 (Throughput)이 높아서 복호 처리 시간이 짧은 장점을 가지고 있는 이진 이중 터보 부호를 적용하였다. 본 논문의 결과는 UWB 시스템을 구현하는데 적용될 수 있다.

Narrow-band interference (NBI) from the coexisting narrow-band services affects the performance of ultra wideband (UWB) systems considerably due to the high power of these narrow-band signals with respect to the UWB signals. Specifically, IEEE 802.11a systems which operate around 5 GHz and overlap the band of UWB signals may interfere with UWB systems significantly. In this paper, we suggest a novel NBI suppression technique based on singular value decomposition (SVD) algorithm in time hopping UWB (TH-UWB) systems. SVD is used to approximate the interference which then is subtracted from the received signals. The algorithm precision and closed-form bit error rate (BER) expression are derived in the wireless multipath channel. Comparing with the conventional suppression methods such as a notch filter and a RAKE receiver, the proposed method is simple and robust and especially suitable for UWB systems.

A general method for the evaluation of the symbol error probability (SER) of ultra wideband (UWB) systems with various kind of modulation schemes (N-PAM, M-PPM, Bi-Orthogonal), in presence of multipath channel, multiuser and strong narrowband interference, is presented. This method is shown to be able to include all the principal multiaccess techniques proposed so far for UWB, time hopping (TH), direct sequence (DS) and optical orthogonal codes (OOC). A comparison between the performance of these multiple access and modulation techniques is given, for both ideal Rake receiver and minimum mean square error (MMSE) equalizer. It is shown that for all the analyzed multiple access schemes, a Rake receiver exhibits a high error floor in presence of narrowband interference (NBI) and that the value of the error floor is in-fluenced by the spectral characteristics of the spreading code. As expected, an MMSE receiver offers better performance, representing a promising candidate for UWB systems. When the multiuser interference is dominant, all multiple access techniques exhibit similar performance under high-load conditions. If the number of users is significantly lower than the spreading factor, then DS outperforms both TH and OOC. Finally 2PPM is shown to offer better performance than the other modulation schemes in presence of multiuser interference; increasing the spreading factor is proposed as a more effective strategy for SER reduction than the use of time diversity.

In this paper, we analyze the performance of ultra wide band (UWB) systems in indoor wireless channel in accordance with the number of pulses per bit at transmit signals and the decision types of receiver. The indoor channel is modeled as the modified Saleh and Valenzuela (SV) model which has been proposed as a UWB channel model by the IEEE group, IEEE 802.15.SG3a. Two types of UWB signals are considered One is the pulse position modulation-time hopping (PPM-TH) signal. And the other is the pulse amplitude modulation-direct sequence (PAM-DS) signal. It is assumed that the receiver is an ideal receiver which can receive all signals of the multipath.
