Abstract :
This paper analyzes the performance of direct sequence ultra-wideband (DS-UWB) systems in a very dense and realistic multipath channel scenario with temporal and spatial diversity, considering Monte-Carlo simulation method and semi-analytical development. This work analyzes the impact of antenna elements and the number of rake fingers on the system performance, emphasizing the effects of the pulse shape correlation.
