Introduction to Ultra Wideband Impulse Radio

In this tutorial paper, the basic principles of the ultra wideband impulse radio (IR-UWB) technology are covered. Pulse construction and signaling formats are discussed, along with channel models suited to the IR-UWB system design and assessment. Some reception techniques are also presented, with emphasis on the time reversal. The paper also highlights some applications of the IR-UWB technology.
