14、chnology for short-range radiocommunication, involving the intentional generation and transmission of radio-frequency energy that spreads over a very large frequency range, which may overlap several frequency bands allocated to radiocommunication Rec. ITU-R SM.1755 3 services. Devices using UWB tech

15、nology typically have intentional radiation from the antenna with either a 10 dB bandwidth of at least 500 MHz or a 10 dB fractional bandwidth greater than 0.2.1UWB transmission: radiation generated using UWB technology. Activity factor: the fraction of time during which a device using UWB technolog

16、y is transmitting.2Impulse: a surge of unidirectional polarity that is often used to excite a UWB band-limiting filter whose output, when radiated, is a UWB pulse.

17、e: a device used to obtain images of obstructed objects. This includes in-wall and through-wall detection, ground penetrating radar, medical imaging, construction and home repair imaging, mining, and surveillance devices. Ground penetrating radar (GPR) device: a radar imaging device that operates ty

18、pically when in contact with or within close proximity to the ground for the purpose of detecting or mapping subsurface structures. While primarily used for examining “underground”, the term “ground” can be expanded to mean any lossy dielectric material. Wall radar imaging device: a sensor that is d

19、esigned to examine and map the interior of walls. The wall is usually made of a concrete structure or similar dense impermeable material that absorbs much of the impinging radio-wave energy. Typical applications include reinforced concrete building walls, retaining walls, tunnel liners, the wall of

20、a mine, the side of a bridge, or another physical structure that is dense enough and thick enough to dissipate and absorb most of the signal strength transmitted by the imaging device. Through-wall radar imaging device: a sensor used to transmit energy through an opaque structure such as a wall or a

29、WB Ultra-wideband WPAN Wireless personal area network Annex 2 General characteristics of UWB technology 1 Potential high-density use UWB technology can potentially be integrated into many applications that could offer benefits to the public, consumers, businesses, and industries. For example, UWB co

30、uld be integrated into applications for improved public safety through the use of vehicular radar devices for collision avoidance, airbag activation and road sensors, short-range high data rate communication devices, tagging devices, liquid level detectors and sensors, surveillance devices, location

31、 determination devices, and as a replacement for wired high data rate connections over short distances. Though most devices using UWB technology would operate at very low power, the many potential UWB applications could result in high density of devices using UWB technology in certain environments s

32、uch as office and business cores. Rec. ITU-R SM.1755 5 2 High data rate Devices using UWB technology may operate at very low power levels and can support applications involving multiple users at high data rates (e.g. short-range wireless personal area networks (WPANs) at data rates greater than 100

33、Mbit/s). 3 Secure communications UWB signals are potentially more covert and potentially harder to detect than non-UWB radiocommunication signals. This is because UWB signals occupy a large bandwidth, can be made noise-like, and can communicate with a unique randomizing timing code at millions of bi

34、ts per second. Each bit is typically represented by a large number of pulses of very low amplitude typically below the noise level. These features result in secure transmissions with low probability of detection (LPD) and low probability of interception (LPI). 4 Robust communications Devices using U

35、WB technology are generally designed to have large processing gain, a measure of a devices robustness against interference. 5 Communication system capacity The theoretical system capacity of any communication system, including a UWB system, may be calculated from the Shannon relation: +=fNffPBCBBddd

36、)(1log02(1) where: C: channel capacity (bit/s) B: channel bandwidth (Hz) Pd(f): signal power spectral density (W/Hz (or dBm/Hz) N0: noise power spectral density (W/Hz (or dBm/Hz). The Shannon relation shows that the theoretical channel capacity of a UWB communication system is very large because of

37、its bandwidth, even though its power spectral density is very low and restricted in amplitude. 6 UWB power spectra UWB signals generated by basic pulse position modulation have numerous spectral peaks. Randomization is used to make the signal more noise-like. The shape of the power spectral density

38、of an emitted UWB signal is usually controlled by an appropriate choice of the pulse shape, modulation technique, timing jitter, and pseudo-noise code sequences used for randomization of the UWB pulses. The spectral shape of a UWB transmission is additionally defined by components such as antennas.

39、6 Rec. ITU-R SM.1755 6.1 Requirement for a large bandwidth UWB transmissions spread over a very large frequency bandwidth in comparison with non-UWB transmissions. Among the challenges is finding a suitable spectrum and a way to introduce UWB applications without causing interference into radiocommu

40、nication services. 6.2 Pulse shaping Pulse shaping enables control of the frequency content of the UWB transmission, which can reduce interference into radiocommunication systems. It is fundamental that pulse shapes for UWB communications must have a zero-mean because an antenna cannot radiate signa

41、ls at zero frequency. Creative designs of pulse shapes and a variety of modulation options can be incorporated in UWB communication system designs. 6.3 UWB modulations For UWB pulses, information can be coded using pulse position modulation (i.e. binary or M-ary PPM), pulse amplitude modulation (i.e

42、. binary or M-ary PAM), bi-phase modulation of pulse polarity (i.e. BPM), modulation by a doublet of a positive pulse followed by a negative pulse or vice versa, and pulse on-off keying (OOK). Furthermore, combinations of these modulations can be used. As an example, a hybrid bi-phase and PPM modula

43、tion scheme has been shown to eliminate discrete components of the UWB PSD. UWB signal transmission involves pulse shaping, spreading, modulation, and randomization. Appropriate hybrid modulation and randomization of a UWB signal makes its spectrum appear like additive white Gaussian noise. The choi

44、ce of the UWB modulation scheme impacts the power spectral density of the radiated signal and consequently its impact on radiocommunication services. In particular, the impact of the discrete components of the PSD can be mitigated or they can be eliminated. 6.3.1 Pulse position modulation (PPM) PPM

45、is a UWB modulation technique by which data are represented by time shifts from a reference time. Binary PPM has been a popular early choice and appears relatively early in the literature on UWB communications. PPM modulated UWB signals may have discrete spectra that carry no information, and may ca

46、use interference. This can be greatly mitigated by randomizing the positions of the pulses using pseudo-noise sequences, which whitens the spectrum significantly. This randomization for PPM has often been called time hopping (TH). Another way to reduce the interference from PPM UWB signals is to inc

47、rease the period of the pulse train. This decreases the frequency of occurrence of discrete components of the PSD. One form of a pulse position modulation is multiband impulse (MB-I) UWB which comprises a method whereby the spectrum is divided into sub-bands. Impulses of very short duration are sent

48、 in frequency and time-hopped sequences over several sub-bands. Polarity or bi-phase modulation of data is used with the time-frequency hopped impulses. A multidimensional modulation space may be employed by filling out a matrix of time and frequency with impulses. Complex and efficient (with respec

49、t to Eb/N0) coherently detected modulations are also possible. The noise-like quality of the signal results from the time-frequency hopping. 6.3.2 Bi-phase modulation For a binary phase modulation, a specific pulse shape and its negative are used to represent a zero and a one. Bi-phase modulation yields an advantage of 3 to 6 dB over PPM in multipath-free environments. It also has a peak power to average power ratio of less than 3 (compared to a sine wave with a ratio of 2). Rec. ITU-R SM.1755 7 6.3.3 Pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) PAM is a technique
