Contribution to the study of UWB signals detection. Design and implementation of an ad hoc receiver for multiple-sensor networks. Indoor localization applications
type: Dataset
description: This thesis is part of the Electronics and Physics (EPH) department’s research work at Institut Telecom SudParis in collaboration with the Information, Images and Information Processing (CITI) Department. The project included the development of a receiver architecture called Time Delayed Sampling and Correlation (TDSC) that works with Transmitted Reference Ultra Wideband signals (TR-UWB), and which could achieve a good performance without channel estimation. The first part of this work included the design of a modular UWB communication system based on the TDSC method. This platform uses a 0.35μm CMOS chip conceived by the EPH laboratory. This gives the possibility to record real TR-UWB signals and to achieve functional tests. A second part of the thesis was to deepen the use of the TDSC method for detection of UWB signals and the synchronization procedure of the receiver using real signals acquired by the platform. A series of tests were conducted in this regard by using baseband signals as well as frequency translated signals, through cable channels and radio transmission. The results let us validate the TDSC detection and the synchronization procedure. Finally, a third line of work was the study and development of a distance estimation proposal based on the time of arrival (TOA) of TR-UWB signals, for indoor localization purposes. The study included a synthesis of several proposals and experimental works. Simulations were made and compared with other methods. Experimental results and their good convergence with the simulations let conclude that the proposal is a feasible solution to the measurement of the TOA, based on a TR-UWB receiver with low-complexity architecture
