Performance Comparison of UWB Pulse Modulation Schemes under White Gaussian Noise Channels

الملخص EN

In this paper, and for the first time, the performance of various ultra wideband pulse modulation schemes are discussed and compared in terms of narrowband interference robustness, symbol error rate, system complexity, data rate, and maximum transmit power with respect to transceiver distance and channel capacity.

The channel model is the UWB IEEE 802.15.3a multipath indoor channel model under additive white Gaussian noise.

The transmit power was evaluated by integrating the fifth derivative of the power spectrum density of the Gaussian pulse over the whole bandwidth.
