  • Abstract
    Transmitted reference (TR) modulation scheme and the autocorrelation receiver offer a simple and robust transceiver configuration for ultra-wideband (UWB) communications. Unfortunately, the TR UWB system has a poor noise performance. The paper shows that the noise performance of a TR autocorrelation system can be improved considerably by placing a noise filter before the autocorrelation detector. The optimum frequency response of required noise filter is derived.
