    Nowadays, precision and accurate positioning in an indoor environment could pro- vide widely researched because of its variety services. There have been many position estimation techniques that can be proposed such as geometric technique, statistical technique, mapping technique and many others. Trilateration technique is the one technique of geometric technique. This technique can be estimate the target position by using the intersection of circle that can be obtained from a set of reference positions. For low-rate communication, the IEEE 802.15.4a standard is proposed. This paper studies on indoor positioning based on IEEE 802.15.4a standard in IR-UWB option. All of measurements using vector network analyzer (VNA) to measure the channel frequency transfer functions. The biconical antennas were used as both transmitter (Tx) antenna and receiver (Rx) antenna with vertical polarization. Trilateration technique will be use to estimate position related parameter RSS and TOA. From the results, TOA has the higher accuracy than RSS both low band and high band cases.

    Characterization of Wireless Power Transfer Measurement at 2.45 GHz
    Wireless sensor network has been developing rapidly. Internet of Things (IoT) is a major role for the next generation of wireless communication system. However, the power consumption and lifetime of the battery are a limitation for the IoT device. Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) is a promising technology to solve the problem due to it can be the ubiquitous power source for the IoT devices by provide the energy via the propagation of radiowaves. The 2.45 GHz ISM is a popular frequency bandwidth which widely used in WiFi application which make it easy to use. The performance of the propagation can evaluate by various parameter. Receive power is use to analyze the efficiency of the radio frequency transmission. Therefore, this paper has been evaluated the WPT measurement data with difference separate distance between antennas at 2.45 GHz. By using the meander line antenna as the transmit antenna and receive antenna. Vector network analyzer (VNA) is used to measure and record the transfer function. The receive power which analyze the measurement data by using link budget equation. The results have shown good agreement between the simulation and measurement result which have the average of measurement result less than the simulation result around 2 dB.

    The indoor localization system has been extensively researched because of its various applications. This system requires high accuracy in indoor environments which absence line of sight and dense multipath. Ultra wideband (UWB) fingerprinting is developed for this purpose. This paper discuss about indoor localization using a fingerprinting concept based on UWB signal and compares between vertical and horizontal polarization cases. All of the measurements used biconical antennas as both transmitter (Tx) and receiver (Rx) antennas. The channel frequency transfer functions of corridor environment were measured at frequencies ranging from 3 GHz to 11 GHz. The path loss and delay time of first three-path is investigated to perform the fingerprints and signatures. The accuracy of estimated distances is shown in terms of cumulative distribution function (CDF). From the results, horizontal polarization provides greater accuracy than vertical polarization.

    Wideband antenna performance evaluation for ultra wideband communication system
    (2018-07-02)
    Ruethorn, Issaree
    ;
    The transmission loss in modern wireless communication systems is usually evaluate by Friis' formula. However, ultra wideband communication systems cannot apply its directly because the transmission waveform for the ultra wideband is difference from the other wireless communication systems. In this paper, the performance of the ultra wideband antenna with the measurement data of the transmission waveform based on Friis' formula and correlation receiver are presented. This scheme used to evaluate formula for the transmission waveform of the ultra wideband communication system. The distortion will be consider the receiver waveform and antenna should be known. Since the ultra wideband transmission waveform are pulse-shaping by the antenna, difference parameter of the antenna is investigated, especially the effect of the antenna performance and waveform template.

    The body area network (BAN) is a wireless technology, which play an important role in very short range wireless communications and find a wide variety of applications such as WiMedia for relaying information gathered by biological sensors on body. The ultra wideband (UWB) technology is suitable for BAN system because of transmission by impulse radio and low power. However, signal distortion due to human body effect in human body-ultrawide band (HB-UWB) channel must be study. In this study, we evaluate HB-UWB channel which serious disturbed by the distortion. The distortion can cause extremely poor signal quality to wireless transmission channel even in free space because of the antenna characteristics and waveform distortion. Thus, the understanding of the effect from characterization of antenna and waveform effect is important. The measurement data of distortion analysis due the antenna and human body of HB-UWB for WBAN were presented in this research report. The receiver waveform template was present to maximize system signal to noise ration. The equation of Friis had been used to evaluate the results. The proposed method is practical for the HB-UWB evaluation, UWB antenna design, and provide more precision to identify the waveform distortion. The results can apply for the design of wireless medical devices which focus on the effect of human body.

    ;
    Wireless ultra-wideband communications technology (WUWB) is a fast popular technology because many unique attractive features that promotes development about wireless communications, networking. WUWB has so high elevated and also allows the force spectral intensity to be so few, and the force limits on UWB are being severely limited by the regulatory bodies. Technology offers plenty advantages, particularly about terms of so high data transmission rates which are good above those probable with currently deployed technologies. The optimization of data transmission is to use multiantenna WUWB method. So, as an alternative, a multiantenna can be used to reduce the error rate as well as improve the quality and capability of wireless transmission by directing, with an aim to adventure the spatial diversity in the channel. The benefits of such a system can be found in independent relationships. This paper presents the spatial effects about transmitter/receiver relations for multiantenna UWB systems under line-of-sight (LOS) and non-line-of-sight (NLOS) situation. A comparison results exhibit that the relations reduce as the antenna length expand for the scenario. In the example of a NLOS situation, the relations does not rely on the spacing.
