This paper presents an analytical analysis about neighboring UWB interferences in a S-DMB receiver. We first derive the C/N$_{o}$ of a S-DMB receiver, based on its specifications and present the theoretical description of its effect to UWB interferences in terms of C/(N$_{o}$+ I) and I/N$_{o}$. Using the calculated C/(N$_{o}$+ I) and I/N$_{o}$, we derive the separation distance for a S-DMB receiver not to be interfered by UWB interferences. Finally, we propose an UWB emission limit at minimum separation distance under which a S-DMB is free of UWB interferences and compare it with the value appeared in FCC proposal.

In this paper, we measured the propagation characteristics of I-UWB channel in time domain and in frequency domain. The measurements carried out in apartment environment while furniture and household electric appliance. Typical indoor scenarios, including line-of-sight(LOS), non-line-of-sight(NLOS) in room-to-room, within-the-room. A transmitting and receiving antenna is a biconical antenna. Results for indoor propagation measurements are presented for power delay profiles(PDP). We extracted the channel characteristic parameters from a power delay profile. Finally, we designed I-UWB channel model in indoor environment, and I-UWB simulator. The results of simulation shows BER characteristics below $10^{-5}$ for SNR over 20[dB].

Future wireless networks are expected to achieve high bit rates at low cost, enabling multimedia and QoS-based services over the wireless medium. The impulse radio ultra-wide band (IR-UWB) technique is a promising candidate in the deployment of such networks, thanks to its potential robustness and capacity. In the past, most of the UWB research focused on hardware and physical layer aspects in order to solve the technological challenges posed by IR-UWB. UWB peculiar characteristics may, however, also stimulate innovative higher layers’ design. This work addresses MAC issues for UWB communication systems. Key areas such as medium sharing, MAC organization, packet scheduling and power control are reviewed. The impact of UWB on the above functions is discussed, and areas which require UWB specific design are identified. Finally, novel MAC functions enabled by UWB specific features, i.e., precise ranging and positioning, are presented.

UWB는 저속 UWB와 고속 UWB로 구분할 수 있다. 저속 UWB는 IEEE802.15.4a에서 Sensor Network 용도로 표준화 되고 있으며, 고속 UWB는 IEEE802.15.3a에서 중단된 표준화가 UWB Forum과 WiMedia Alliance에서 각각 진행되고 있다. 고속 UWB는 Certified Wireless USB를 시작으로 무선 1394, 고속 Bluetooth 및 IP 패킷을 전송하기 위한 프로토콜 등 다양한 응용에 적합한 표준이 진행되고 있다. UWB 규격 및 상용화에 있어서 2006년도에는 WiNet기술, PHY 및 Platform C/I 규격 및 시험이 규격의 흐름이었다면 2007년도에는 각 국의 주파수 규정을 반영하고 DAA 기능을 추가한 물리계층 및 MAC 계층 규격이 기술흐름의 중심에 있다. 본 고에서는 WiMedia Alliance의 고속 UWB를 중심으로 최근 표준 활동과 WiMedia 규격을 활용한 국내외 기술동향에 대하여 살펴보고자 한다.

Recently, a great variety of radio services are provided and interference problem between radio systems is being watched remarkably. Therefore, a study of interference between radio systems is needed. In this paper, compatibility between Ultra Wideband (UWB) and Terestrial Digital Multi-media Broadcasting (T-DMB) is analyzed and then distance between them is computed. UWB systems have a very broad frequency characteristic. A big advantage is to share frequency that is already allocated to other systems. T-DMB is a good point that while L-Band is already used for DAB, T_DMB is free of charge. AT-DMB (Advanced T-DMB) is being standardized recently. The result which is analyzed for the interference effects between UWB and T-DMB Systems is 10 [dB], which is value calculated by C/(N0+I), at 80 [m] and then the value is saturated at 150 [m].

This paper aims at designing an impulse-radio ultra-wideband (IR-UWB) transceiver, especially targeting the IEEE 802.15.4a indoor ranging and communication systems. We first investigate the IEEE 802.15.4a IR-UWB signals and suggest the full-digital transceiver architecture accordingly. Since the wireless systems equipped with the impulse signal have the property of low-duty cycle, i.e., discontinuity in time, while the conventional systems takes the continuous signals, it is required to reconfigure the system design, including link budget. Following brief introduction to our IEEE 802.15.4a IR-UWB system hardware, we finally examine the ranging performance in indoor environments to verify our system design.

In this paper, we present the implementation result of an UWB terminal for mobile tactical networks. Considering the major characteristics of the terminals of tactical networks, i) targeting voice service, ii) pedestrian users, and iii) demanding high network fidelity, we designed all protocol layers from physical layer to applications layer. The designed terminal is implemented in forms of software and hardware with RF ASIC, FPGA, DSP, and GPP. The functionality of the implemented terminal is validated by successfully performing 1 to 1 and multi-hop voice communication test.
