Abstract
This paper presents the evaluation scheme to investigate the pulse distortion, propagation loss due to human body shadowing. The matched filter is employed at the UWB receiver to maximize the SNR. The propagation loss and matched filter gain of the passband rectangular pulse are simulated for comparing with the experiment results. The experimental channels are taken for several T-R separation distances in an indoor environment. The frequency responses of the radio channels are acquired by using a vector network analyzer (VNA) over the frequency bandwidth of 3 GHz to 11 GHz. From the results, the distortion and the propagation loss of the UWB pulse increase as the T-R separation distance increases, especially when the fully shadowing is occurred. © 2005 IEEE.
