BER performance analysis of TH-PPM UWB communication system in an AWGN channel

Abstract EN

In this paper, is presented the evaluation of the ultra wideband (UWB)communication system performance analysis in terms of bit error rate (BER) in a time hopping pulse position modulation scheme (TH PPM) in the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel.

Most of the researches topics with UWB concepts are based on Pulse Position Modulation with Time Hopping (TH-PPM) but one of the weaknesses of TH-PPM is its BER performance.

The simulation results demonstrate that bit error probability performance of TH-PPM UWB communication system improved when increase the number of pulses per information bit.
