Abstract :
In this work we compute the information theoretic capacity C of binary orthogonal pulse position modulated (PPM) signals for ultra wideband (UWB) communications over multipath channels. We consider binary PPM signals with random energy and correlation values. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the capacity results.
