Abstract
Good knowledge of transmission channel properties is necessary to study the performances of future UWB systems. Thus, efficient equipment is required to characterize and model the UWB propagation channel. This paper proposes a basic idea to convert a SIMO wideband channel sounder into an UWB channel sounder. These minor changes were applied to the France Telecom R&D channel sounder. The modified equipment enables real time measurement in the 3.1 10.6 GHz frequency band with more than 1 GHz bandwidth.
