A highaccuracy programmable timer is therefore the key to implementing UWB signal data acquisition. A high-accuracy programmable timer based on the principle of ramp generators is described in this paper. The counting range of the timer is up to 16 bits, the timing precision is 8 ps, and the equivalent sampling rate is up to 50G Hz. No other identical product has been reported so far. This timer was successfully used in the data acquisition system for geological radar signals developed by us.展开更多

However, one major challenge in UWB signal processing is the requirement of high sampling rate which leads to complicated signal processing and expensive hardware. In this paper, we present a novel UWB signal sampling method called UWB signal sampling via temporal sparsity (USSTS). Its sampling rate is much lower than Nyquist rate. Moreover, it is implemented in one step and no extra processing unit is needed. Simulation results show that USSTS can not recover the signal precisely, but for the use in localization, the accuracy of TOA estimation is the same as that in traditional methods. Therefore, USSTS gives a novel and effective solution for the use of UWB signals in localization.展开更多

In this paper, we study the compressed sensing (CS) based impulse radio UWB (IR-UWB) signal detection and propose an IR-UWB signal detection algorithm based on compressive sampling matching pursuit (CoSaMP). The proposed algorithm relies on the fact that UWB received signal is sparse in the time domain. The new algorithm can significantly reduce the sampling rate required by the detection and provides a better performance in case of the low signal-to-noise ratio when comparing with the existing matching pursuit (MP) based detection algorithm. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.展开更多
