본 논문은 UWB(Ultra Wide-band) 통신 시스템에서 효과적인 신호 검출 알고리즘을 제안한다. UWB 통신 시스템은 차세대 통신 시스템으로 각광 받고 있는 기술로써, 매우 낮은 파워의 송신 신호를 사용한다. 그로 인해 잡음 및 다중 경로 환경하에서 신호 검출 알고리즘이 시스템 성능에 매우 중요한 부분으로 작용한다. 제안된 알고리즘은 신호 검출 성능을 높이기 위해, 신호의 정확한 위치를 잡는 Tracking과정에서 사용되는 DLL 구조를 활용하여 보다 세밀한 신호 탐색이 가능하다. 실험 결과 신호 위치를 기준으로 신호길이의 1/3 내에서 신호를 검출할 확률이 AWGN 15dB 이하에서 30% 정도 높아짐을 확인하였다.

In this paper we proposed system parameter values of M-ary PPM/TH(Pulse Position Modulation/Time Hopping) ultra-wideband systems having data rate of 100 Mbps for the frequency band, which is allocated by Federal Communications Commission(FCC). We also analyzed performance of the proposed system in the AWGN channels. According to the results of performance analysis, It is observed that available pulse duration is very limitative for this system. In case of constant data rate, if M and the pulse repetition numbers are increased, then the system performance is improved and the user number is decreased.

In conventional Ultra Wide Band(UWB) system, it uses Pulse Positioning Modulation Method to modulate data signal. In this paper, however, we derive power spectral density characteristic of time hopped antipodal signal using stochastic process. UWB signal employes Gaussian monopulse and Rayleigh monopulse which pulse width is 0.5 nsec and interval is 5 nsec. But comb line which produces unintentionally could be evidently reduced by the time hopped code, so this code be used to channelize for multiple access and minimize to different communication system.

In this paper, we designed a multiband monopole antenna for next-generation WLAN system. In conventional WLAN system, UWB antennas were used together, and, because the radiation occurs in different parts depending on the antenna structure, it has the disadvantage of having an unstable impulse response characteristic due to dispersion characteristics. Although a UWB antenna that has suitable radiation pattern for WLAN band, it does not have good impedance matching and has severe echo. Therefore, in this paper, a monopole antenna was designed by using CPW power feed so that various impedances can be easily implemented when designing an antenna and more parameters can be derived that can be used for design for optimal performance.

In recent years, LBS(Location Based Service) is applied in many different fields. Therefore, various location-aware schemes have been studied. In the location awareness system using time dependent algorithm, TOA(Time of Arrival) or TDOA(Time Difference of Arrival) algorithm, distortion of a signal by AWGN(Additive White Gaussian Noise) and multi-path effects cause the degradation of location awareness performance. In this paper, the unexpected noise is eliminated by averaging multiple pulses in order to overcome the degradation of performance. Also, we research the technique for improving the performance of the location awareness by detecting direct-path signal with adjusting threshold.

UWB(Ultra Wide Band)는 차세대 무선통신 기술로 무선 디지털펄스라고도 한다. GHz대의 주파수를 사용하면서도 초당 수천~수백만 회의 저출력 펄스로 이루어진 것이 큰 특징이다[1]. 기존 무선통신 기술의 양대 축인 IEEE 802.11과 블루투스 등에 비해 속도와 전력소모 등에서 월등히 앞서고 있으며, SoC(System on a Chip)의 저전력 구현에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. OFDM은 크게 FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) 블록, Interpolation /decimation 필터 블록, 비터비 블록, 변복조 블록, 등화기 블록 등으로 구성된다. 고속 시스템에서는 대역효율성이 우수한 OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) 방식을 사용하고 있으며, OFDM 전송방식은 직렬로 입력되는 데이터 열을 병렬 데이터 열로 변환한 후에 부반송파에 실어 전송하는 방식이다. 이와 같은 병렬화와 부반송파를 곱하는 동작은 IFFT와 FFT로 구현이 가능한데, FFT 블록의 구현 비용과 전력소모를 줄이는 것이 핵심사항이라고 할 수 있다. 기존논문에서는 OFDM용 FFT 구조로 단일버터플라이연산자 구조, 파이프라인 구조, 병렬구조 등의 여러 구조가 제안되었다[2]. 본 논문에서는 Radix-8 FFT 알고리즘 기반의 New partial Arithmetic 저전력 FFT 구조를 제안하였다. 제안한 New partial Arithmetic 저전력 FFT구조는 곱셈기 대신 병렬 가산기를 이용 하여 지금까지 사용되는 FFT 구조보다 전력소모를 줄일 수 있음을 보였다.

This paper proposes a two-stage synchronization scheme using a serial search non-coherent correlator appropriate for the IEEE 802.15.4a system. The proposed method improved the synchronization performance by using multi-pulse signals unlike the conventional method using single-pulse signals. It also compensated for the degradation of performance at low SNR resulting from the use of fixed threshold by applying the adaptive threshold technique. The proposed method showed a detection probability that is higher by approximately 0.2-0.3 compared with the conventional method in the IEEE 802.15.4a channel model.
