Abstract :
A low-cost architecture for the generation of Gaussian, monocycle and doublet pulses is described. It is based on a passive network to which step signals is applied. Prototypes are realized to demonstrate experimentally this approach in the UWB band 3.1 GHz to 10.6 GHz for the three pulse shapes. In these three cases, sub nanosecond pulses with a small ringing are obtained.
