Investigation of the influence of signal parameters on ultra-wideband (UWB) impulse radio systems

Abstract — This project investigates the effect of different
pulse shaping techniques on spectra of a transmitted signal
of an Ultra Wide Band communication system, the target
is to achieve high spectral efficiency by finding the optimum
parameters for pulse shaping filter. Another target is to
achieve best bit error performances for different channel
environments (AWGN channel and IEEE 802.15.3a UWB
channel) for both single-user and multi-user systems; to
attain this goal different channel coding schemes have
been used. MATLAB® simulations are used to show the
efficacy of used methodologies in achieving higher spectral
efficiency and better error rate performance. In this
project UWB technology, transmission of UWB, properties
of a wireless channel, Correlator Receiver and Rake
receiver is discussed in detail.
