Performance analysis of ultra wide band indoor channel
Abstract
Research on wireless communication system has been pursued for many
years, but there is a renewed interest in ultra-wideband (UWB) technology for
communication within short range, because of its huge bandwidth and low
radiated power level. This emerging technology provides extremely high data
rate in short ranges but in more secured approach. In order to build systems
that realize all the potential of UWB, it is first required to understand UWB
propagation and the channel properties arise from the propagation. In this
research, the properties of UWB channel for indoor industrial environment
was evaluated. A few indoor channel models have been studied so far for
different environments but not for indoor industrial environment and various
data rates are obtained according to wireless channel environments.
Therefore, an accurate channel model is required to determine the maximum
achievable data rate. In this thesis, we have proposed a channel model for
indoor industrial environment considering the scattering coefficient along with
the other multipath gain coefficient. This thesis addresses scattering effect
while modeling UWB channel. Here, the performance of UWB channel model
is analyzed following the parameters, such as power delay profile and the
temporal dispersion properties which are also investigated in this paper.
