A new UWB dual pulse transmission and detection technique

A new UWB signaling technique based on dual pulse transmission is presented in this paper. The proposed technique is simple, robust, and based on an autocorrelation type of receiver structure. Several detection schemes with different implementation complexity are presented and their performances are studied by Monte-Carlo simulations. Comparison of the proposed new designs to the transmitted reference system is also carried out in the paper.
