Abstract

In this paper, a new analytical method based on exact statistical modeling of multiple access interference (MAI) is proposed for exact bit error rate (BER) computation of time hopping pulse position modulation (TH-PPM) ultra wideband (UWB) systems. The proposed modeling considers full asynchronism. Furthermore, it is also suitable for modeling the MAI components contributed by individual paths in channels with Poisson arrivals, based on the time variables.
