Abstract :
In this paper, the authors derive a symbol error rate expression for the M-ary TH-PPM UWB system under the interference from multiple users. Monte Carlo simulations are then used to validate the analytical solutions. Moreover, the analytical results are compared to those found by Gaussian approximation. The authors further show that compared to a binary system, M-ary systems can produce better error performance.
