Chirping techniques for enhancing the performance of SOA-based UWB over fiber systems: An experimental demonstration

A phaser-based processing technique was adopted in an UWB over fiber system employing SOA. The target is to simultaneously reduce the ASE noise impact and nonlinear effects inherent to optical amplification. Experimental results prove the effectiveness of chirping in terms of cross correlation and bit error rate.     

Flower‐shaped ultra‐wideband fractal antenna

A flower‐shaped ultra‐wideband fractal antenna is presented. It comprises a fourth iterative flower‐shaped radiator, asymmetrical stub‐loaded feeding line, and coplanar quarter elliptical ground planes. A wide operating band of 12.12 GHz (4.58‐16.7 GHz) for S ₁₁ ≤ ? 10 dB is achieved along with an overall antenna footprint of 15.7 × 11.4 mm². In addition, other desirable characteristics, that is, omnidirectional radiation patterns, peak gain upto 5 dB, and fidelity factor more than 75% are achieved. A good agreement exists between the simulation and measured results. The obtained results illustrate that this antenna has wide operating range and compact dimensions than available structures.     

Direction finding receiver for UWB impulse radio signal in multipath environment

In this paper, we propose a direction finding (DF) receiver for ultra wideband impulse radio (UWB‐IR) signal in a realistic multipath environment. The receiver uses an array of antenna, where each antenna is connected to a proposed propagation‐delay estimation structure. The advantage of the proposed structure is that it outputs a trapezoidal signal whose amplitude reflects the propagation delay and thus relaxes the sampling rate requirement of the analog‐to‐digital‐converter (ADC). The angle‐of‐arrival (AOA) is estimated from the vector of propagation delays measured with respect to reference antenna. Because these estimated delays contain outliers, we propose a simple AOA estimation algorithm based on minimum fractional‐distance search. Experimental results based on simulation show that the proposed DF receiver achieves better performance compared with the minimum ?₁‐ and ?₂‐based (least‐squares based) distance search.

冲激超宽带雷达生命信号提取的新方法

冲激超宽带生命探测雷达中,传统的平均相消法不能有效去除直达波,从而影响目标回波信号的提取;同时对回波数据中呼吸、心跳信息的提取仍然基于FFT从频域上进行,因而呼吸信号谐波对心跳信号检测的干扰未得到很好解决.针对这两个问题,采用宽带互相关法对回波时延进行估计,然后提取各个回波时延序列的均值与方差作为特征量,采用C-均值聚类算法对回波进行分类,实现直达波与目标回波的分离;采用经验模态分解将目标回波时延序列分解成有限个固有模态函数,从时域上提取呼吸和心跳信号,从而避免呼吸谐波对心跳信号检测的干扰.

Optimal transmissions for space-time coded OFDM UWB systems

1 Introduction Recently, the high rate short range wireless personal area network (WPAN) is considered. When the inverse of the sampling rate is significantly shorter than the total delay spread, as is the case for most UWB communication systems, OFDM systems are more attractive than a single-carrier system. The multi-band OFDM physical layer proposal has been adopt by IEEE 802.15.3a Task Group[1]。 Combing STC and OFDM have the properties to achieve high data rate and mitigate int…
