Impulse radio multipath characteristics and diversity reception

Abstract

Delay-and-sum beamforming is applied to both ideal and measured ultra-wideband (UWB) signals. The results of propagation measurements are also used directly to estimate the performance of an UWB communication system and to characterize design tradeoffs.
