Abstract

An ultra wideband impulse radio (UWB-IR) is applied for short-range system such as wireless personal area network (WPAN) in of£ce and home network. The characteristics of transmission signal are very complicated and dif£cult to predict. Therefore, the performances of transmission gain should be considered. In this paper, an experimental study of transmission loss for UWB-IR is presented. We discuss the characteristics of UWB-IR transmission system. The rectangular passband waveform is used as the UWB-IR transmitted waveform. The transfer functions of channels are measured in the convention room using vector network analyzer (VNA). The matched £lter is considered at receiver side to maximize the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The optimum received signal, the relative gain and correlation coef£cient are evaluated and shown. ©2007 IEEE.
