A Low Power, Reconfigurable IR-UWB System KU Leuven
Impulse-Radio-UWB is the ideal air interface for low power wireless applications especially when they require ranging capabilities. This paper presents a complete UWB transceiver system, including acquisition and ranging protocols. The system is fully reconfigurable in terms of bandwidth, data rate, processing gain, acquisition protocol and ranging accuracy, in order to fulfill the needs of the application with minimal energy consumption. The ...
