Background
 Basic idea of UWB
 Communications in a frequency band already occupied
(Coexistence)
 Making frequency re-use possible by limiting the PSD of
Equivalent Isotropically Radiated Power (EIRP)
 UWB radio regulation
 Federal Communications Commission (FCC, USA) determined
only the maximum emission limit and minimum bandwidth
 Method for access to UWB frequency band has not yet been fixed
 Note: UWB regulations say nothing about the type of carrier and
technique used to generate UWB carrier. So Any kind of carriers,
including chaotic signals, may be used; any kind of modulation
scheme may be used

Background
 UWB frequency band
 Frequency band allocated to handheld UWB devices: 3.1
GHz to 10.6 GHz
 Define: UWB transmitter is an intentional radiator
that, at any time instant
 fractional bandwidth BW  2( f  f ) /( f  f )  20%
 Or, UWB bandwidth  500 MHz, regardless of the
fractional bandwidth

FCC limits on radiated UWB signal
 To avoid interference caused in the existing narrowband systems, not the
radiated power but the PSD of EIRP is limited
 Definition of Equivalent Isotropically Radiated Power (EIRP)= (power
supplied to the antenna) *(antenna gain)
ERIP limits in two ways:
 Peak level of the emissions contained within a 50-MHz bandwidth
centered on the frequency at which the highest radiated emission occurs
should not exceed 0 dBm EIRP
 Average radiated emissions shall not exceed -41.3 dBm EIRP when
measured using a resolution bandwidth of 1 MHz over the frequency band
of 3.1 GHz to 10.6 GHz
 Note: Low-data rate (less than 350 kbit/s) UWB systems are peak power
limited, while high-data rate ones are average power limited

Performance of the fixed integration interval UWB-FM-DCSK system,
when the guard interval length Tg is 7.5, 22.5, 47.5, 97.5 and 197.5ns,
with the integration interval is Tf/2 and the chip duration Ts is 2.5ns
Left: CM1 Right: CM4.
Remark: 1.When semi-bit Tf/2 duration integration interval is used,
the BER performance is obviously affected by guard interval Tg. Larger Tg, lower BER.
2. On the other hand, since the integration interval is equal to Tf /2, increasing
of Tf means more noise energy captured whereas signal energy almost unchanged, so the BER
is deteriorated when Tg great than a threshold.

interval T (from 0 to Tf/2 with the stepping 4ns) in different Eb/N0 condition
and different channel mode. And there exists an optimum integration interval
when BER is minimized corresponding to each Eb/N0.

Performance comparison between the non-optimal integration interval scheme and the presented
optimization scheme of CM1, CM2, CM3 and CM4, Tf is set as 400ns and Ts is 2.5ns
Remark: BER performance of the presented optimization method outperforms the
scheme when the integration interval keeps a fixed value of Tf/2 about 2.2dB in
CM1, CM3 and CM4 while about 1.2dB in CM2, because of much channel delay
in CM2 than others.

Improved DCSK/FM-DCSK Scheme
 Problem of TR-UWB receiver (including DCSK/FM-DCSK)
 All digital implementation: extremely high power consumption due
to needing GHz A/D converter.
 Analog implementation RF front-end: a RF delay line is required,
which is extremely difficult to implement in CMOS. Especially,
long delay implementation, such as several decades ns.
 How to solve this problem?
 Design an alterative DCSK transceiver which eliminates the RF
delay line.

Problem of present non-coherent UWB
synchronization algorithm
● Timing synchronization is a major challenge for the implementation of
non-coherent UWB receivers.
● Present non-coherent UWB timing synchronization algorithm: the operation of
correlation between two neighboring symbols and the operation of picking the
peak from a large amount of correlation values.
● Problem: Above algorithm operation is not available for the FM-DCSK UWB system
for two reasons: first, a chaotic waveform varies from symbol to symbol, even if the same
bit is transmitted repeatedly, which is the main difference between the FM-DCSK UWB and
the conventional non-coherent TR UWB; second, noise-like chaotic signals have low
values of inter-symbol correlation.
Thus, a new timing synchronization algorithm with rapidity and low
complexity is required for the FM-DCSK UWB communication system.

Remark: Since the BER performance is highly sensitive to LT but less sensitive to ET, it is clear
that the larger the probability of LT, the worse the BER performance. Here, occurrence
probabilities of ET is great than LT. Thus, the average BER performance is good.

Motivation
 There are two fundamental aspects of wireless communication that
make the problem challenging and interesting.


First is the phenomenon of fading: the time-variation of the channel
strengths due to the small-scale effect of multipath fading
Second is the phenomenon of interference: such as, inter-user inference,
inter-symbol inference (ISI) that is introduced by multipath channel.
 So, how to deal with fading and with interference is central to the
design of wireless communication systems.

Diversity – an effective method to mitigate channel fading
 As an alterative spread-spectrum technology, DCSK/FM-DCSK has
superior capability in terms of anti-interference over multipath
fading channels.

For improving performance of DCSK, space diversity is a promising
technology. Such as, multiple antenna, user cooperative diversity, etc.

User Cooperative Diversity (Combating fading)
 Cooperative communications can provide transmit diversity for
most wireless networks.
 Since one user’s signals can be relayed by other users’ independent
fading paths to the destination, in cooperative communications,
terminals share others’ antennas to achieve transmit diversity.
 This approach achieves spatial diversity through all partners’
antennas, which enhances the ability of combating fading in
wireless communication systems. Such as WSN, WPAN and WBAN,
which are complicated applications requesting low-cost, low power
and various demands of QoS. (VMIMO)

DCSK/FM-DCSK (Combating multi-path interference)

Frequency modulated differential chaos shift keying (DCSK/FM-DCSK) is a
joint modulation and spread spectrum technique.

The noise performance of DCSK/FM-DCSK is superior to most conventional
modulation schemes in multi-path channel environment. In particular,
frequency-modulated differential chaos shift keying (DCSK/FM-DCSK)
technique offers robustness against multi-path interference and channel
imperfections.

DCSK/FM-DCSK demonstrates itself as a promising modulation technique for
many low-cost and low-complexity wireless transmission applications, such as
wireless sensor networks (WSN) and low-data-rate wireless personal or body
area networks (WPAN, WBAN).

Thus, combination of user cooperative diversity and DCSK/FM-DCSK is an
efficient scheme to anti-fading and anti-interference (ISI).

Remark: The BEP curves indicate that the performance of the DCSK cooperative system
with a steeper slope is more sensitive to noise than the CDMA cooperative system at high
values of SNR. The DCSK cooperative system is more effective at high SNR, especially in
near-far scenarios, such as user distance ratio 1:1:0.5 and 1:0.8:0.4.

 Performances under different chaotic maps
BEP performances of DCSK cooperative system when logistic map,
cubic map and Bernoulli-shift map are used, respectively, spread-spectrum
factor is 32
Logistic map:
Cubic map:

Remark: It is found that the chaotic sequences generated by the Bernoulli-shift map
produce higher BEP, while the BEPs for the system using the cubic map and the logistic
map are the same. There are similar results in conventional multiuser DCSK systems
