UWB, positioning Taekyoung kwon
Classical radio signal • Separation of signals • Conventional signals discern one from the other by different frequency • Ideal: smallest bandwidth occupancy • The best capacity is when each user occupies a smallest sliver of frequency • Sine wave carrier
Separation of signals: another look • Signals can be separated in time • Ideal: shortest time duration • Best capacity is when each user occupies the smallest sliver of time • Impulse radio
Why UWB? • High throughput • Location capability • Theoretically sub-centimeter • Low power • Low cost • Scalable range compared to other PAN technologies
GPS-free positioning • TOA: time of arrival • Distance: time of flight * c • Tri-angulation • 2D: 3 reference points is needed
