But due to the wave distortion caused by overlapped between the received and the sent pulses, a lot of energy in demodulator will be lost. In this paper, a new receiver is developed by adopting maximum likelihood algorithm, in which RAKE structure is not needed and can also be implemented easily.

文摘In the literatures about Ultra Wide Band （UWB） to date, the receiver structure is mainly based on Rake receiver. But due to the wave distortion caused by overlapped between the received and the sent pulses, a lot of energy in demodulator will be lost. In this paper, a new receiver is developed by adopting maximum likelihood algorithm, in which RAKE structure is not needed and can also be implemented easily. The simulation showed that this method has BER advantage over the traditional RAKE receiver with maximal ratio combining at high SNR, and over the autocorrelation receiver as well.
