Abstract

General design considerations for the transmit/receive antennas in ultra-wideband wireless communication systems are discussed. The considerations include radiated power density lower than the required emission limits and maximum energy at the output of receive antennas. As an example, a pair of center-fed thin wire dipoles is investigated by using an FDTD method. The effects of the parameters of transmit/receive antennas and source pulses on the overall system performance are studied.
