Performance of pulsed OFDM systems for UWB communication

摘要

This A multi-band orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) UWB system is the new proposal for the IEEE 802.15.3a standard for wireless high bit-rate personal area networks. Pulsed OFDM is an enhancement to the multi-band OFDM system that offers better performance with lower complexity and correspondingly reduced power consumption. In this paper, the implementation issues and pipeline structures of a pulsed OFDM transmitter are presented. In particular, architectural features of the system and its components are described and analyzed.
