Design and analysis of channel-phase-precoded ultra wideband (CPPUWB) systems

A new indoor data communication scheme called the channel phase preceded ultra wideband (CPPUWB) system is proposed in this work. The proposed CPPUWB system is efficient in computational power saving by encoding the transmit symbol with a channelized codeword. The channelized codeword is determined by the channel phase information that is estimated at the receiver and then fed back to the transmitter. A method to estimate the channel phase information using training symbols is presented. For a given number of training symbols, we derive a lower bound for the average output SNR, which can be used to evaluate the system performance. Finally, an MMSE receiver is proposed to suppress the residual intersymbol interference (ISI) for the high data rate scenario
