Impulse Radio Pulse Shaping for Ultra-Wide Bandwidth UWB Systems
In this paper, we investigate the design of pulse shaping UK filters for impulse radio ultrawideband (UWB) communications systems. The goal of the shaping is to meet an arbitrary spectrum mask, e.g., the mask mandated by the FCC for UWB emissions. Compared with classical FIR filter designs, the current problem introduces three new challenges: (1) it is minimax with quadratic constraints, (2) a sin
