초록

In this paper, the performance of ultra-wideband (UWB) single input multiple output (SIMO) systems to achieve high data rate communications is studied in dense multipath environments. The effects of spatial and temporal diversities on the performance of multi-user time-hopping UWB systems using binary pulse position modulation (2PPM) are analyzed. The reduced-complexity Rake receivers based on the selective combining (called SRake) and partial combining (called PRake) are considered. The theoretical and simulation results show that the BER performance of the UWB system can be enhanced as the number of array elements and/or Rake fingers increases. Moreover, we observe that SRake is more effective for the IR-UWB systems to achieve a good BER performance, as compared with PRake.
