Abstract :
Ultra wideband (UWB) is a reliable candidate for supporting a physical layer in Body Area Networks (BAN) and because of their wideband, UWB systems can have their performance degraded due to the interference from narrowband transmission. Methods must be developed to protect UWB systems that are exposed to this negative impact of the narrowband interference (NBI). Most proposed solutions have been developed for coherent and transmitted-reference receivers but a very few of these principles are eligible with the noncoherent energy detector (ED) receiver. The work presented thereafter aims at proposing a novel method to identify and mitigate the narrowband interference in ultra wideband transmissions. We use an efficient algorithm with a modified but still simple energy detector, and the performance of the method is evaluated by means of computer simulations.
