UWB multiple-pulse generator and transmitter

In this paper, a multi-pulse generator which generates four different prolate spheroidal wave functions (PSWF), based on a source signal for use in ultra-wideband (UWB) communication systems is proposed, which is then applied to an M-ary communication system. This class of pulse shape yields orthogonal pulses that have a constant pulse width and bandwidth regardless of the pulse order, which is in contrast to the majority of other orthogonal pulse classes. Due to the presented results, it is now possible to build a cheap and easily reproducible UWB pulse generator.
