Non-coherent TOA Estimation in IR-UWB Systems with Different Signal Waveforms
In this paper, signal waveform designs for TOA estimation with non-coherent receivers based on ultrawideband impulse radio are discussed. Four different transmit signal waveforms are analyzed, both with respect to their design constraints, and their precision ranging performance in IEEE 802.15.4a multipath channels. We introduce novel searchback and thresholding algorithms, and show that the rangi
