  • Abstract
    This paper addresses the robustness of FM-UWB BAN radio to frequency-selective multipath and interference. Examples of the FM-UWB radio performance with IEEE802.15.6 BAN channel models are given. Robustness to interference is demonstrated and interference mitigation solutions at the physical layer of the receiver front-end are presented and illustrated with simulation results.
