Abstract :
This paper presents a flexible pulsed UWB receiver sampling below Nyquist rate which can trade power consumption for demodulation performance and transmission speed. The system is based on a complex Singular Value Decomposition which is implemented on a configurable systolic array of simple processors. The area cost of the receiver is estimated to 2 MGates.
