A Rapid and Reliable Two-Step Search Scheme for UWB Signal Acquisition in Multipath Channels Jaewoon KIM Suckchel YANG Yoan SHIN Publication IEICE TRANSACTIONS on Fundamentals of Electronics, Communications and Computer Sciences Vol.E90-A No.7 pp.1491-1495 Publication Date: 2007/07/01 Online ISSN: 1745-1337 DOI: 10.1093/ietfec/e90-a.7.1491 Print ISSN: 0916-8508 Type of Manuscript: LETTER Category: Spread Spectrum Technologies and Applications Keyword: UWB, signal acquisition, two-step search, TSS-BS, TSS-LS, Full Text: PDF(304.1KB)>>
Summary: We propose the "Two-Step Search scheme with Linear search based Second step (TSS-LS)" by improving the conventional "Two-Step Search scheme with Bit reversal search based Second step (TSS-BS)" for reliable as well as rapid acquisition of Ultra Wide Band (UWB) signals in multipath channels. The proposed TSS-LS utilizes two different thresholds and search windows to achieve fast acquisition. Furthermore, unlike the TSS-BS in which the bit reversal algorithm is applied in both steps, the linear search is adopted for the second step in the proposed TSS-LS to correctly find the starting point in the range of effective delay spread of the multipath channels, and to obtain reliable bit error rate performance of the UWB systems. | ||||||||||
