Impulse radio is an ultrawideband system with attractive features for baseband asynchronous multiple-access, multimedia services, and tactical wireless communications. Implemented with analog components, the continuous-time impulse radio multiple-access model utilizes pulse-position modulation and random time-hopping codes to alleviate multipath effects and suppress multiuser interference. We introduce a novel continuous-time impulse radio transmitter model and deduce from it an approximate one with lower complexity. We also develop a time-division duplex access protocol along with orthogonal user codes to enable impulse radio as a radio link for wireless cellular systems. Relying on this protocol, we then derive a multiple-input/multiple-output equivalent model for full continuous-time model and a single-input/single-output model, for the approximate one. Based on these models, we finally develop design composite linear/nonlinear receivers for the downlink. The linear step eliminates multiuser interference deterministically and accounts for frequency-selective multipath while a maximum-likelihood receiver performs symbol detection. Simulations are provided to compare performance of the different receivers.  相似文献

Ultra-wideband (UWB) impulse radio (IR) systems are currently being considered for several applications due to their attractive features that include low-power carrierless and ample multipath diversity. Among the various modulation and multiple-access schemes, time-hopping (TH) pulse position modulation (PPM) is a popular technique in application. Most past works rely on strict power control and perform single-user detection (matched filtering) on the desired signal. This paper aims to apply multiuser detection techniques in binary PPM (BPPM) UWB IR multiple-access systems. Moreover, we consider frequency-selective multipath fading channels to account for the wireless cellular environment. A class of linear multiuser detectors (LMDs) is applied to extract the information bits while eliminating multiuser interference (MUI) in the presence of multipath fading. Simulation results are provided to compare the performance of different LMDs.  相似文献

The differentially-encoded, di-symbol time-division multiuser impulse radio (d2TD-IR) with delay-sum autocorrelation receivers is a low complexity, high efficiency short range wireless communication technology for infrastructure networks. The d2TD-IR system is designed with the assumption that the users are perfectly synchronized. In this letter, we propose a recursive algorithm of combined synchronization and power control. Computer simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has significant performance improvement over the algorithm, in which synchronization and power control are performed separately.  相似文献

Statistical Analysis of UWB Channel Correlation Functions   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Various performance metrics of impulse-radio (IR) ultrawideband (UWB) receivers are closely connected to the correlation functions of the multipath channel responses to UWB pulses. Interpulse interference is related to the autocorrelation function (ACF) of the received pulse (RP), the RP energy and its fading correspond to the ACF at zero lag, and multiple access interference is connected to the cross-correlation function (CCF) between two channel pulse responses. Each realization of the multipath channel shows different correlation functions due to the ldquorandomnessrdquo of the UWB propagation environment. This paper derives the first- and second-order statistics of the ACF and CCF, capturing this randomness. Such results are useful for incorporating the multipath channel into the performance and design optimization studies of UWB systems. The analysis is based on a model of the received UWB pulse. The model describes the random channel response by two continuous functions of the excess delay time-one expresses the power, the other expresses power variations-and by a prototype pulse shape representing all linear system components including the band limitation of the RP and antenna effects. The analytical results are validated through the analysis of simulated and measured channel responses.  相似文献

Low-complexity multiuser detectors for time-hopping impulse-radio systems   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Impulse radio (IR) and especially time-hopping IR (TH-IR) systems have attracted considerable attention since their introduction in the context of ultra wide-band (UWB) systems in the early 1990s. Recently, with the U.S. Federal Communications Commission actions allowing for the wide-spread use of UWB radio systems, the interest in these systems has grown further. These systems promise to deliver high data rates in multiple access communication channels with very simple transmitter and receiver designs. The importance of multiuser detection for achieving high data rates with these systems has already been established in several studies. This paper studies several low-complexity multiuser detectors specifically designed for TH-IR radio systems. It is demonstrated that many multiuser detectors developed primarily for direct-sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) systems can be used essentially without any change in TH-IR receivers. Further, several novel, low-complexity multiuser detectors that exploit the special signal structure used for transmission by TH-IR systems are developed. These novel detectors are analyzed both theoretically and via simulations. It is shown that a very simple iterative multiuser detector yields performance that is similar to that of a single-user system.  相似文献

Transmitted-reference (TR) schemes for time-hopping impulse radio (TH-IR) ultra-wideband (UWB) communications allow the use of simple receiver structures that are able to combine energy from different multipath components without channel estimation. A conventional TR receiver consists of a simple delay-and-multiply operation combined with an integrator. On the downside, it shows a performance loss due to non-linear operations on noise terms (generation of noise-noise cross-terms) when forming the decision variable. This paper describes a hybrid receiver structure for UWB communications that reduces these noise-noise cross-terms by first performing a "matched filtering" operation matched to the time-hopping sequence of pulses. The receiver retains most of the simplicity of the conventional TR receiver, but requires an analog correlator for the time-hopping sequence of pulses. The performance the proposed receiver is analyzed in both AWGN and multipath channels. For the AWGN case, the exact expression for the bit error probability is obtained, which takes into account the nonGaussian nature of the noise-noise cross-terms arising in the correlators. For the multipath case, both inter-frame interference and multipath interference from the reference pulse to the data pulse are considered, and approximate closed-form expressions are derived based on the assumption of a large integration interval. Also approximate criteria for optimal integration interval are obtained for the best receiver performance. Simulation studies are presented to analyze the performance of the proposed receiver structure and to confirm the theoretical analysis  相似文献

In ultra-wideband (UWB) communications based on time-hopping (TH) impulse radio, one of the most frequently studied receivers is the correlation receiver. The multiuser interference (MUI) at the output of this receiver is sometimes modeled as a Gaussian random variable. In order to justify this assumption, the conditions of validity of the Central Limit Theorem (CLT) have to be studied in an asymptotic regime where the number of interferers and the processing gain grow toward infinity at the same rate, with the channel degree being kept constant. An asymptotic study is made in this paper based on the so-called Lindeberg's condition for the CLT for martingales. Nonsynchronized users sending their signals over independent multipath channels are considered. These users may also have different powers. It is shown that when the frame length grows and the repetition factor is kept constant, then the MUI does not converge in distribution toward a Gaussian random variable. On the other hand, this convergence can be established if the repetition factor grows at the rate of the frame length. In this last situation, closed-form expressions for the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) are given for TH pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) and pulse position modulation (PPM) UWB transmissions.  相似文献

Ultra wideband impulse radio systems have attracted great attention for their promised applications in high-speed short-range indoor wireless communication systems. Among the various modulation and multiple access schemes, this paper deals with time-hopping (TH) antipodal pulse amplitude modulation operating in the presence of a multipath fading downlink channel. We first employ a constrained optimization technique to design a batch mode blind (without exploiting training sequences and undesired users’ time-hopping (TH) codes) mobile station receiver. To reduce the computational complexity, we propose a blind adaptive receiver that is based on the criterion of maximizing the receiver’s minimum possible output energy. The algorithm jointly and iteratively optimizes the weight vector and channel impulse response to improve system performance. Simulation results show that the proposed adaptive receiver converges to the optimum batch mode receiver. Moreover, the algorithms are shown to be robust to multi-user interference and near-far problems.  相似文献

Transmitting digital information using ultra-short pulses, impulse radio (IR) has received increasing interest for multiple access (MA). When IRMA systems have to operate in dense multipath environments, the multiple user interference (MUI) and intersymbol interference (ISI) induced, adversely affect system capacity and performance. Analog IRMA utilizes pulse position modulation (PPM) and random time-hopping codes to mitigate ISI and suppress MUI statistically. We develop an all-digital IRMA scheme that relies on multistage block-spreading (MS-BS), and judiciously designed transceiver pairs to eliminate MUI deterministically, and regardless of ISI multipath effects. Our proposed MS-BS-IRMA system can accommodate a large number of users and is capable of providing different users with variable transmission rates, which is important for multimedia applications. Unlike conventional IRMA systems, MS-BS-IRMA exhibits no degradation in bit-error rate performance, as the number of users increases.  相似文献

In recent years, there has been a growing interest in multiple access communication systems that spread their transmitted energy over very large bandwidths. These systems, which are referred to as ultra wide-band (UWB) systems, have various advantages over narrow-band and conventional wide-band systems. The importance of multiuser detection for achieving high data or low bit error rates in these systems has already been established in several studies. This paper presents iterative (?turbo?) multiuser detection for impulse radio (IR) UWB systems over multipath channels. While this approach is demonstrated for UWB signals, it can also be used in other systems that use similar types of signaling. When applied to the type of signals used by UWB systems, the complexity of the proposed detector can be quite low. Also, two very low complexity implementations of the iterative multiuser detection scheme are proposed based on Gaussian approximation and soft interference cancellation. The performance of these detectors is assessed using simulations that demonstrate their favorable properties.  相似文献
