doc. : IEEE 15 -05 -0337 -00 -004 a June 2005 A Burst Sequence Proposal for Coherent Pulse Compression Dani Raphaeli & Gidi Kaplan Sandlinks June 3 rd, 05 Submission 2 Dani Raphaeli, Sand. Links

doc. : IEEE 15 -05 -0337 -00 -004 a June 2005 Terminology • [Terminology - as agreed lately over the reflector] • Pulse – a single UWB pulse (on the order of 1 -2 nsec) • Burst – a sequence of ‘L’ UWB pulses (each pulse possibly modulated, the whole sequence has some ‘code’). Possibly, L may be between 11 to 33. • Symbol - for data or ranging – comprises of M bursts. • Each pulse has energy of Ep= Es/(L*M) where Es is the symbol energy. Submission 3 Dani Raphaeli, Sand.

doc. : IEEE 15 -05 -0337 -00 -004 a June 2005 Burst Code Selection Criteria • • • Signal Spectrum Flatness. Autocorrelation Goodness. Length. Complexity of generation and correlation. Ability to provide SOP separation Submission 4 Dani Raphaeli, Sand. Links

doc. : IEEE 15 -05 -0337 -00 -004 a June 2005 Optimization of Sequence • The sequences which give almost ideal autocorrelation, and therefore a flat spectrum are called “barker sequence”. • The largest known binary barker sequence is of length 11 [in binary form: 10110111000] • Larger sequences, even of length much larger, e. g. 32, cannot yield as good autocorrelation as the above. Submission 5 Dani Raphaeli, Sand. Links

doc. : IEEE 15 -05 -0337 -00 -004 a June 2005 Consequences of not good autocorrelation • As a first result of ‘moderate’ autocorrelation, the spectrum will have peaks. • Since FCC limits measure the peak in the spectrum - the effect is a decrease in the allowed power level (at the transmitter). • Barker sequence have only 1 d. B peaks. Other sequences have larger peaks – up to 5 d. B (see 15 -05 -0240 -02 -004 a) • Note – to assure this good spectrum, care must be taken to modulate the bursts with good sequence and random like data Submission 6 Dani Raphaeli, Sand. Links

doc. : IEEE 15 -05 -0337 -00 -004 a June 2005 Consequences of not good autocorrelation • Another consequence of ‘moderate’ autocorrelation the autocorrelation sidelobes will be high • The effect is a ghost multipath, leading to reduced performance or failures in ranging • Barker sequence have only -20 d. B sidelobes. Submission 8 Dani Raphaeli, Sand. Links

doc. : IEEE 15 -05 -0337 -00 -004 a June 2005 Using sequences with perfect periodic autocorrelation • There exist some sequences with good periodic autocorrelation: PN codes, Ipatov sequences • The problems is that in order to take advantage of this property, the sequence should be sent repetitively without a gap or without modulation, limiting their usefullness • Although such periodic sequence can be used in the preamble, it will make an adverse effect on the spectrum – resulting in peaks in the repetition frequency. Submission 9 Dani Raphaeli, Sand. Links

doc. : IEEE 15 -05 -0337 -00 -004 a June 2005 Supporting multiple Piconets • Can one practically achieve physical piconet seperation using a short code? • Codes with no crosscorrelation cannot exist if codes are non synchronized • Due to Near-far effect one cannot use CDMA type separation in 4 a application unless the code is very large (e. g. l 000 pulses) or alternatively, there is effective time hopping code with very large discrete resolution. Both approaches lead to complicated receiver • Conclusion – SOP should be differentiated logically if more than 3 needed. Not a big issue in 4 a, where traffic is low.
