The purpose of this paper is to analyze the performance requirements of wireless systems on ultra wide band, which is set by FCC(Federal Communications Commission). Normally the calculation of performance requirements is used in the standard form of each communication systems, but there is no standard in the wireless systems on Ultra WideBand. Therefore, I derive each system parameters through the analysis of new system performance on the basis of the method of Indoor Communication Systems. Additionally, I compare the conditions that are given by FCC with resolution of the performance by domestic law.

Precision location and positioning of Asset within a network is an attractive feature with various applications, especially in indoor environments. Such a demand is met by the standard task group, IEEE 802.15.4a. Several methods, that is, pulse, chirp and chaotic communications have been proposed so far to satisfy the requirements of the standard. Among them, ultra wideband direct chaotic communications has advantageous features such as low hardware complexity, low cost, lower power consumption and flexible frequency band plan. In this paper, the feasibility of the ranging system using non-coherent chaotic transceiver is investigated by designing and implementing the system and the performance is proved by conducting location experiments in real indoor environments.

In this paper, a microwave tag system of a frequency-scanning type is proposed with multi-resonators using defected ground structures. While a conventional chip-based RFID stores time-sequential codes, the proposed type achieves pure passive tags by using multi-resonant bits over a frequency range. Moreover, the resonators of the spiral defected ground structures implemented on the back side of transmission lines have advantages of the excellent bandstop characteristics as well as the bit-error avoidance by the re-radiation on normal resonators. The proposed microwave tag is designed with UWB antennas at 3~7 GHz. From the experimental results in an anechoic chamber, it has been verified of the excellent recognitions for various 5-bits identification codes.

The rapid aging is increasing as the shortage of medical facilities and the resulting of decline in the quality of public health. In order to ease the burden of rising medical expenses, advanced medical institutions are expanding their remote medical care to lower the cost of services. U-healthcare detects the changes in physical and chemical phenomena occurring in the human body and converts them into electrical signals that can be processed and feeds back to the results through analytical and visualization processes to select only the desired information from the measured signals. The service is provided through a process of providing an alarm to a user. However, traditional biometric methods of attaching sensors directly to the body can be annoying and rejected in daily life. Therefore, there is a need for a method of continuously measuring biometric information without causing inconvenience to daily life. In this paper, we propose an IR-UWB-based non-contact and non-responsive respiratory measurement system that can continuously monitor biological information without any inconveniences to daily life.

In this paper, we have proposed a tapered slot antenna for IR-UWB communication system suitable of indoor positioning in the building. The designed tapered slot antenna is designed using Ansys Inc. HFSS and its standing wave ratio, return loss, and radiation pattern is analyzed. In 2.36 GHz ~ 5.51 GHz and, the designed antenna shows satisfactory return loss at -10 dB and meets the requirement of $VSWR{\leq}2$. The presented designed showed a higher sensitivity for the end-fire propagation characteristics in a specific direction across all bands of the radiation pattern.

This paper presents the characteristics of a double-cone broadband antenna with compact and three-dimensional structure that can be used in UWB system. The theoretical analysis is conducted using a finite difference time domain(FDTD) method. The parameters are the radius, a height of broadband double-cone antennas with shorting plate, and the number of plates on a ground plane. This paper examines influence of structural parameters on return loss. The results show that a condition for an optimum structure of broadband double-cone antennas with shorting plate exists. It also shows that the broadband double-cone antennas with shorting plate have radiation patterns similar to those of a dipole antenna. To verify the theoretical analysis, computed results are compared to experimental results.

This paper describes a 4.224GHz CMOS charge pump PLL for Mode 1 MB-OFDM UWB hopping carrier generation. It includes a qudrature VCO of which the frequency range is from 3.98GHz to 4.47GHz(@ 0.4 to 1.5 V), a divider, a PFD, a loop filter, a charge pump, and a lock detector. Designed in a 0.18um CMOS technology, the PLL draws 6.6mA from a 1.8V supply. The phase noise of the designed VCO is -133dBc/Hz@3MHz.

A new form of spread spectrum technique called the ultra wideband impulse radio (UWB-IR) system has drawn much attention for future high speed wireless communication services. In this paper, a new type of time hopping sequences constructed from multiple distinct m-sequences of the same order, is proposed for multiple access in the UWB-IR systems. Simulation results reveal that the proposed time hopping sequences achieve comparable or even better bit error rate performance than the ideal random sequences, and can be effectively applied in various multiple access situations.

MB-OFDM UWB시스템은 TFC(Time-Frequency Code)를 이용하여 시간/주파수 호핑을 수행한다. 이를 통해 주파수 영역에서 다이버시티 효과를 갖는 동시에 사용되는 다른 piconet간의 간섭을 최소할 수 있다. 송신단에서는 프리앰블을 전송할 때부터 해당 TFC에 맞게 호핑을 하면서 전송을 하기 때문에 수신단에서는 신호의 시작을 추정하는 패킷 검출은 매우 중요한 과제이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 MB-OFDM UWB시스템을 위한 간단하고 효율적인 패킷 검출 방법을 제안하였다. 시뮬레이션 수행 결과 제안된 방법은 기존 방법보다 약 0.5 dB의 SNR 개선 결과가 있는 것으로 밝혀졌다.
