ULTRA-WIDE BAND COMMUNICATION APPARATUS AND METHOD

摘要

The present invention provides an ultra-wide band (UWB) system and method. In one embodiment, a transmitter of a low duty cycled ultra wide band (UWB) system includes a differential spreading encoder for encoding a phase of a bit sequence based on a reference bit sequence. The transmitter also includes a pulse generator for generating a number of pulses associated the bit sequence using the encoded phase of the bit sequence, where the number of pulses is equal to a length of the bit sequence. Moreover, the transmitter includes a DMPSK modulator for generating a modulated signal through modulating the number of pulses using a phase of a differential data symbol.
