Singular Value Decomposition-Based Algorithm for IEEE 802.11a Interference Suppression in DS-UWB Systems

摘要

Coexisting with many concurrent narrowband services, the performance of UWB systems will be affected considerably by them. Specifically, IEEE 802.11a systems which operate around 5 GHz and overlap the band of UWB signals will interfere with UWB systems significantly. In this paper, a novel narrow-band interferences (NBI) suppression technique based on singular value decomposition (SVD) algorithm for a direct sequence ultra-wideband (DS-UWB) communication system is presented. SVD is used to approximate the interferences which then are subtracted from the received signals. The proposed technique is simple and robust. Simulation results show that the proposed new technique is very effective.
