Robust IEEE 802.15.4a Energy Detection Receiver Using Statistical Interference Modeling

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Ruben Merz

Energy-detection is appealing for IEEE 802.15.4a receivers as it allows to exploit the ranging capabilities and the multipath resistance of impulse-radio UWB at a reasonable complexity. IEEE 802.15.4a receivers operate with interference created by uncontro ...

Method for retrieving data from Ultra Wideband radio transmission signals

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Ruben Merz

The present invention concerns a receiver and a method for retrieving data from Ultra wideband radio transmission signals received by a receiver and transmitted in packets containing at least a preamble known to the receiver and a payload containing data u ...

Increasing Cellular Network Energy Efficiency for Railway Corridors

Andreas Peter Burg, Ruben Merz, Adrian Schumacher

Modern trains act as Faraday cages making it challenging to provide high cellular data capacities to passengers. A solution is the deployment of linear cells along railway tracks, forming a cellular corridor. To provide a sufficiently high data capacity, m ...

Performance Evaluation of Impulse Radio UWB Networks using Common or Private Acquisition Preambles

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Ruben Merz

For impulse-radio ultra-wide band (IR-UWB) networks without global synchronization, the first step for correct packet reception is packet detection and timing acquisition: Before recovering the payload of the packet, the destination must detect that the pa ...

An Energy Detection Receiver Robust to Multi-User Interference for IEEE 802.15.4a Networks

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Ruben Merz

Energy-detection receivers are appealing to IEEE 802.15.4a low data-rate networks because of their low complexity. With a reasonable energy consumption, these receivers can exploit the ranging capabilities and multipath resistance of impulse-radio UWB (IR- ...

3.5 GHz Coverage Assessment with a 5G Testbed

Andreas Peter Burg, Ruben Merz, Adrian Schumacher

Today, cellular networks have saturated frequencies below 3 GHz. Because of increasing capacity requirements, 5th generation (5G) mobile networks target the 3.5 GHz band (3.4 to 3.8 GHz). Despite its expected wide usage, there is little empirical path loss ...

Effect of Interfering Users on the Modulation Order and Code Rate for UWB Impulse-Radio Bit-Interleaved Coded M-ary PPM

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Ruben Merz

We consider the impact of multi-user interference on a bit-interleaved coded-modulation system with M-ary PPM (BIC M-ary PPM) in an impulse-radio ultra-wideband physical layer. In a realistic scenario such as an ad hoc network, the interference is inherent ...
