Title
A Subsampling Uwb Impulse Radio Architecture Utilizing Analytic Signaling
Abstract
This paper describes a system architecture along with signal processing technique which allows a reduction in the complexity of a 3.1-10.6 GHz Ultra-Wideband radio. The proposed system transmits passband pulses using a pulser and antenna, and the receiver front-end down-converts the signal frequency by subsampling, thus, requiring substantially less hardware than a traditional narrowband approach. However, the simplified receiver front end shows a high sensitivity to timing offset. By proposing an analytic signal processing technique, the vulnerability of timing offset is mitigated; furthermore, a time resolution finer than the sampling period is achieved, which is useful for locationing or ranging applications. Analysis and simulations of system specifications are also provided in this paper.
