  • 본 논문에서는 초광대역 (Ultra-wideband, UWB) 시스템에서 실내 위치 측위를 위한 새로운 거리 추정 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 딥러닝 기법 중 하나인 순환 신경망 (RNN)을 기반으로 한다. 순환신경망은 시계열 신호를 처리하는데 유용한데 UWB 신호 역시 시계열 데이터로 볼 수 있기 때문에 순환신경망을 사용한다. 구체적으로, UWB 신호가 IEEE 802.15.4a 실내 채널모델을 통과하고 수신된 신호에서 순환신경망 회귀를 통해 송신기와 수신기 사이의 거리를 추정하도록 학습한다. 이렇게 학습된 순환신경망 모델의 성능은 새로운 수신신호를 이용하여 검증하며 기존의 임계값 기반의 거리 추정 기법과도 비교한다. 성능지표로는 제곱근 평균추정에러 (root mean square error, RMSE)를 사용한다. 컴퓨터 모의실험 결과에 따르면 제안하는 거리 추정 기법은 수신신호의 신호 대 잡음비 (signal to noise ratio, SNR) 및 송수신기 사이의 거리와 상관없이 기존 기법보다 항상 월등히 우수한 성능을 보인다.

  • A frequency modulated ultra-wideband (FM-UWB) transmitter with a high-robust relaxation oscillator for subcarrier generation and a dual-path Ring VCO for RF FM is proposed, featuring low power and low complexity. A prototype 3.65-4.25 GHz FM-UWB transceiver employing the presented transmitter is fabricated in $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS for short-range wireless data transmission. Experimental results show a bit error rate (BER) of $10^{-6}$ at a data rate of 12.5 kb/s with a communication distance of 60 cm is achieved and the power dissipation of 4.3 mW for the proposed transmitter is observed from a 1.8 V supply.

  • In this paper, a transmitter-based multipath processing and inter-channel interference (ICI) cancellation scheme for a ultra-wideband (UWB) spatial multiplexing (SM) multiple input multiple output (MIMO) system is presented. It consists of taps delayed lines and zero-forcing (ZF) filters in the transmitter and correlators in the receiver. For a UWB SM MIMO system with N transmit antennas, M receive antennas, and Q resolvable multipath components, the BER performance of a linear transmit ZF scheme is analyzed in a log-normal fading channel and also compared with that of a receiver-based ICI rejection approach. It is found that when M ${\leq}$ N, the transmit ZF processing approach outperforms the ZF receiver while making the mobile units low-cost and low-power.

  • This paper describes a high data rate proximity transmitter design for high resolution smartphone-mirrored display applications. A 2 Gb/s transmitter is designed with a low transmission power of -70 dBm/MHz and a wide bandwidth of nearly 3 GHz. A digital pre-correction method is employed in the transmitter to mitigate the inter-symbol interference problem. A carrier-based digital pulse shaping and a reconfigurable digital envelope generation methods are employed for robust operation by utilizing 20 phases from a 2 GHz phase-locked loop. A 6.5-9.5 GHz transmitter implemented in 65 nm CMOS achieves the maximum data rate of 2 Gb/s, consuming only 7.6 mW from a 1 V supply.

  • 본 논문에서는 UWB(Ultra Wide Band) 다중 경로 채널에서 PRAKE(Partial RAKE) 기법을 이용한 시간 도약 다원 접속 시스템의 간섭 제거 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 간섭 제거 기법은 다중 사용자 간섭(MAI)의 효율적인 추정을 위하여 매 프레임마다 보호 구간을 적용하는 기존의 전송 방식과 달리 슬롯 단위의 보호 구간을 적용한 전송 모델을 사용한다. 일반적인 UWB 시스템이 다중 경로 채널 환경에서 심볼 간 간섭(ISI)과 다중 사용자 간섭에 의하여 사용자의 수에 따라 심각한 성능의 저하를 가져오는 반면, 제안된 간섭 제거 기법을 적용한 UWB 시스템은 사용자 수에 관계없이 일정한 성능을 보인다. 또한 시스템의 복잡도를 줄이기 위하여 본 논문에서는 간섭을 제거한 신호에 대한 PRAKE 결합 기법과 부분 사용자 간섭 제거를 이용한 저 복잡도 간섭 제거 기법을 제안한다.

  • There are several factors that disturb an Ultra-Wideband (UWB) radio propagation in an indoor environment such as path loss, shadowing and multipath fading. These factors directly affect the quality of the received signal. In this paper, we investigated the influence of the human body shadowing on UWB propagation based on measured wireless channel in an anechoic chamber. The characteristics of the UWB channel including the transmitter and the receiver antenna effects are acquired over the frequency bandwidth of 3${\sim}$11 GHz. The major factors such as the power delay profile (PDP), the angular power distribution (APD), the pulse distortion and the RMS delay spread caused by the human body shadowing are presented.

  • 본 논문에서는 ultra-wideband(UWB) 시스템에서 합성곱 신경망(CNN)을 이용한 거리 추정 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 UWB 신호를 이용하여 송신기와 수신기 사이의 거리를 추정하기 위하여 수신신호의 크기 샘플로 이루어진 1차원 벡터를 2차원 행렬로 재구성하며, 이 2차원 행렬로부터 합성곱 신경망 회귀를 이용하여 거리를 추정한다. IEEE 802.15.4a 표준의 UWB 실내 가시선 채널모델을 이용하여 수신신호를 생성하여 학습데이터를 만들며 합성곱 신경망 모델을 학습시킨다. 또한 실제 필드 시험을 통해 실내환경에서의 실험 데이터를 이용하여 거리추정 성능을 확인한다. 제안하는 기법은 기존의 문턱값 기반의 거리 추정 기법과의 성능비교도 수행하는데, 결과에 따르면 10m 거리에서 제안기법은 0.6m의 제곱근 평균 자승 에러를 보이는데 기존기법은 1.6m로 훨씬 큰 에러를 보인다.

  • In this paper, we propose structures and power spectral densities of UWB radar transmitters of Short Range Automobile. While the conventional transmitters did not consider interferences from self and other automobiles, the proposed method of this paper can minimize interferences. First, we compare a structure of the proposed method with pulse train and pulse compression method. Then, by using mathematical analysis and computer simulations, we show that the proposed method is superior to others. Also we can set proper parameters in UWB radar's transmitter through the numerical method of mathematical results.

  • A 3-5 GHz UWB radar chip in 0.13 ${\mu}m$ CMOS process is presented in this paper. The UWB radar transceiver for surveillance and biometric applications adopts the equivalent time sampling architecture and 4-channel time interleaved samplers to relax the impractical sampling frequency and enhance the overall scanning time. The RF front end (RFFE) includes the wideband LNA and 4-way RF power splitter, and the analog signal processing part consists of the high speed track & hold (T&H) / sample & hold (S&H) and integrator. The interleaved timing clocks are generated using a delay locked loop. The UWB transmitter employs the digitally synthesized topology. The measured NF of RFFE is 9.5 dB in 3-5 GHz. And DLL timing resolution is 50 ps. The measured spectrum of UWB transmitter shows the center frequency within 3-5 GHz satisfying the FCC spectrum mask. The power consumption of receiver and transmitter are 106.5 mW and 57 mW at 1.5 V supply, respectively.

  • This work presents an Internet of Things (IoT) system for home energy management based on a custom-designed Impulse Radio Ultra-Wideband (IR-UWB) transceiver that targets a generic and multi-standard control system. This control system enables the interoperability of heterogeneous devices: it integrates various sensor nodes based on ZigBee, EnOcean and UWB in the same middleware by utilizing an ad-hoc layer as an interface between the hardware and software. The paper presents as a first the design of the IR-UWB transceiver for a portable sensor node integrated with the middleware layer, and also describes the receiver connected to the control system. The custom-designed low-power transmitter on the sensor node is fabricated with 130 nm CMOS technology. It generates a signal with a 1.1 ns pulse width while consuming $39{\mu}W$ at 1 Mbps. The UWB sensor node with a temperature measurement capability consumes 5.31 mW, which is lower than the power level of state-of-the-art solutions for smart-home applications. The UWB hardware and software layers necessary to interface with the control system are verified in over-the-air measurements in an actual office environment. With the implementation of the presented sensor node and its integration in the energy management system, we demonstrate achievement of the broad flexibility demanded for IoT.
