Design of Frequency locked loop and Receiver front-end for Burst-Chirp UWB Radar Transceiver for Vital Signs and Occupancy Sensing by monitoring the respiration and heartbeat rate

While there are many technologies and electronic systems used to detect the human vital signs by monitoring the heart beat rate & respiration rate, all these systems rely on physical contact with the human body. Furthermore, each measuring system can only be used for a single person thus increasing the cost and complexity of integrated...

Power efficient digital correlator in the scope of an UWB baseband design

Ultra Wideband (UWB) radio represents a promising way of communication for low power applications in interference-prone environments. For achieving a low power solution the digital baseband architecture needs to be carefully optimized to reduce the total power consumption. Particularly for the computationally intensive synchronization phase that...
