Autonomous Operation of Super-Regenerative Receiver in BAN

Super-regenerative receiver is one of the potential candidates to achieve ultra low power wireless communication in body area network (BAN). The main limitations of the super-regenerative receiver include the difficulty in choosing a good quench waveform to optimize its sensitivity and selectivity, and its significantly degraded performance in...

Error Control Coding Schemes for Ultra-wideband Impulse Radio Systems

Ultra-wideband (UWB) is a promising technology that offers a potential solution for the data rate, cost, power consumption and physical size requirements of the next generation wireless devices. UWB may also play an important role in the realization of future heterogeneous networking. This technology has recently gained significant interest from...
