Abstract:
In this paper, we evaluate the performance of Multiple
Input Multiple Output (MIMO) Ultra-Wideband (UWB)
systems over the IEEE 802.15.3a channel model recommendation
[1]. Two schemes are considered, namely a Space-Time (ST)
coded scheme and an uncoded scheme using MMSE receivers.
In order to achieve higher data rates with lower complexity and
better performance, these schemes are associated with combined
Pulse Position Modulation (PPM) and Pulse Amplitude Modulation
(PAM). At the receiver side, the better conditioned channel
matrices offered by the highly frequency selective channel permit
linear receivers to close the gap with respect to fundamental
performance limits.
