多带OFDM-UWB系统峰均功率比降低方法研究

针对多带OFDM—UWB信号存在高峰均功率比的问题，提出了利用扩展与交织降低系统信号峰均功率比的方法。该方法通过对传输数据进行正交扩展与交织，使得进入多载波调制的数据趋于高斯分布，减小了传输数据自相关函数的旁瓣峰值，降低了OFDM-UWB信号的峰均功率比。由于采用正交矩阵进行扩展，扩展前后的数据传输速率保持不变。仿真结果表明，扩展与交织可以有效地降低信号峰均功率比2-5dB左右。同时该方法还具有抗窄带干扰的鲁棒性。     

A Novel UWB Pulse Shape Modulation System

In this paper novel modified Hermite polynomial functions for use in impulse radio (ultra-wideband) communications are proposed. With these functions pulse shapes which are orthogonal and have nearly constant pulse width regardless of the pulse order are generated. These properties hold under the effects of differentiation. An M-ary communication system is constructed using these pulse shapes. A Matlab model for generating the pulses is designed and the effect of timing jitter on the performance of the system is investigated by computer simulation.     

一种变压器巴伦馈电的超短波紧耦合阵列天线

紧耦合阵列天线(Tightly Coupled Array, TCA)具有超宽带、低剖面、宽角扫描等特点,近年来受到国内外学者的广泛关注。然而,在甚高频(VHF)、特高频(UHF)频段TCA 由于馈电网络设计困难等原因现有的研究报道很少。为了填补这一空白,本文设计并测试了一款变压器巴伦馈电的TCA,利用变压器巴伦解决了单元平衡馈电困难问题,同时采用短路枝节抑制E面共模谐振,采用频率选择表面(FSS)匹配层改善宽角扫描阻抗匹配。实测结果表明,该天线在110~520 MHz 频带内、±40°扫描角范围内电压驻波比<2.5,和仿真结果吻合。     

Ultra-Wideband Electrostrictive Mechanical Antenna

Mechanical antennas based on piezoelectric materials can effectively reduce the size of long wave antennas down to 1/1000 of the wavelength (from km scale to mm level). However, the narrow bandwidth and weak field intensity seriously restrict its practical applications in transmission distance and channel capacity. Here, a mechanical antenna-based electrostrictive effect of relaxor ferroelectric ceramic (PMN-PT) is proposed to improve radiation capacity and achieve ultra-wideband characteristics (10 kHz–1 MHz). Due to the ultra-high dielectric constant at working temperature and the relationship between the strain and applied field intensity, the proposed antenna gets rid of the dependence on the poled materials and exhibits excellent communication properties beyond traditional mechanical antennas, which are experimentally demonstrated by a practical wireless communication system. Only using a single proposed mechanical antenna with 8 mm diameter and 3 mm thickness, the effective communication with a transmission distance of 200 m can be realized. This design offers a promising way of constructing mechanical antennas for long-wave communication.

A Novel Approach to All-Optical Generation of Ultra-Wideband Signals

Abstract

The generation of ultra-wideband signals in the optical domain is highly desirable for ultra-wideband-over-fiber systems, which has recently become a topic of interest. In this article, a novel and simple approach to achieve all-optical generation of ultra-wideband signals is proposed, which is based on delaying and superimposing optical Gaussian pulses with opposite polarities. The proposed system is capable of generating both ultra-wideband monocycle and doublet pulses, and the polarity of the generated ultra-wideband monocycle pulses can be fast-switched to implement pulse polarity modulation with the required bit pattern. A model to describe the proposed system is developed, and the generation of ultra-wideband signals is demonstrated with simulations and a proof-of-concept experiment.

Design of sextuple-mode triple-ring HTS UWB filter using two-round interpolation

A single-stage ring resonator capable of introducing six modes within the ultra-wideband (UWB) passband is presented. The sextuple-mode resonator consists of three rings and three sets of stepped-impedance open stubs. Based on this sextuple-mode resonator, a UWB filter fed by the interdigital-coupling line (ICL) is designed. And we propose a two-round interpolation method to obtain the filter's initial dimensions. The designed filter is fabricated on a double-sided YBCO/MgO/YBCO high-temperature superconducting (HTS) thin film for demonstration. The experimental results show that this UWB filter produces eight resonances in the passband eventually, which effectively improves the in-band reflection and the band-edge steepness. Moreover, the upper stopband performance is enhanced due to the transmission zeros (TZs) generated by the stepped-impedance open stubs and the ICL structure. The measured good performance verifies the practicability of the two-round interpolation approach, which can also be extended to other odd-even-mode filter designs.

超宽带雷达因其距离分辨率高、抗干扰能力强、目标检测和识别能力高等优点,受到世界各国的重视。通常采用倍频器来产生超宽带信号,然而,倍频环节中存在一些影响信号质量的非理想特性。针对该问题,提出利用频谱拼接技术来产生超宽带雷达信号。采样频率越大则输出信号幅度包络失真越小。频谱拼接时间误差小于100 ns时,其主瓣比理想情况增大5%。通过频谱拼接技术能够有效解决幅度失真、高采样频率需要和拼接时间误差等问题。设计了两个直接数字频率合成器同步电路,确保两路正交基带信号同步。频谱拼接技术还能灵活控制信号带宽大小,产生较理想的超宽带线性调频信号。
