Abstract :
The performance of an ultra-wideband (UWB) communication system applying pulse position modulation (PPM) is investigated. The optimum impulse shift position in the case of binary overlapping PPM (2OPPM) is analytically derived for the AWGN channel. It is shown that the information throughput of a UWB system in the AWGN channel can be optimized by adjusting the time overlap of the pulse shape used according to the actual signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)
