Performance analysis of Time-reversed ultra-wideband indoor channel by simulation

Ultra-wideband (UWB) is a powerful technology for high data rate short-range wireless communications and position location applications. The application of Time-reversal (TR) technology, due to its temporal and spatial focusing characteristic, can greatly improve the performance of UWB wireless communication. In order to take full advantage of TR-UWB technology, it is required to understand the propagation and channel properties of TR-UWB communications at first. In this paper, the properties of TR-UWB channel for indoor LOS scenario was evaluated by simulation. The performance of TR-UWB channel model is analyzed based on the parameters, such as power delay profile and the temporal dispersion properties.
