Abstract

In this paper, a high data rate modulation scheme for impulse radio ultra-wideband (IR-UWB) communication system using orthogonal waveforms is presented. The proposed M-state Orthogonal Amplitude Modulation (M-OAM) is evaluated under additive White Gaussian noise and indoor multipath channels IEEE.802.15. The simulation results show that the proposed system performance, in term of bit error rate (BER), is of the same order as that of the traditional UWB modulation. In addition, the M-OAM modulations provide a high data rate for short range wireless applications. Nevertheless, the multipath effect reduces the quality of transmission. Thus, the performances of three receiver architectures, that employ different pulse combining schemes, are investigated. Namely, a conventional matched filter receiver, a RAKE receiver and a minimum mean square error equalizer are considered. This study shows that the proposed M-OAM communication system offers good performances in term of quality of services, channel capacity and BER.
