Abstract :
We present a new algorithm to numerically generate pulses that not only have a short time duration for multiple access, but also meet the power spectral constraint of Federal Communications Commission (FCC) ultra-wideband (UWB) mask. In fact, applying our algorithm to the FCC spectral mask for UWB systems can lead to the design of multiple orthogonal pulses that are compliant. Our algorithm presents a flexible and systematic method for generating UWB pulses that have many advantages over the Gaussian monocycle pulse.
