  2. TG4a Overview • Responsive to PAR: Low complexity & power with precision ranging • Regulatory flexibility: Multiple bands in different band groups tailored to expected regulations around the world • Coexistence: Low PSD + low duty cycle + multiple bands + other features • Scalable performance vs. complexity

  3. Baseline Mode – Low Complexity with Robust Performance in Multipath • Single UWB band centered at ~4 GHz • Fc = 3993.6 MHz (based on 499.2 MHz band spacing) • Hybrid PPM+BPSK modulation • Default preamble • 256 symbols of L=31 perfect ternary sequence • Data rate: 851 kbps • Concatenated code • Systematic RS + Systematic convolutional code • Very low complexity Aloha medium access control • Ideal for low duty cycle UWB waveforms • Wide bandwidth (>500 MHz) for precision ranging

  4. Spectrum Usage • Provides flexibility for coexistence and regulatory compliance worldwide • 4 band groups • 1: 3.1 to 4.8 GHz • 2: 6 to 10.6 GHz • 3: 2.4 ISM band (non-UWB  requires different modulation) • 4: 500 MHz • One or more designated operating frequencies within each band group • Each band group has a single mandatory band to minimize complexity but ensure interoperability

  5. Modulation and FEC • Extremely low complexity architectures are supported for key applications • Hybrid design to provide scalable complexity and performance • Combined PPM and convolutional coding to support coherent and non-coherent architectures • Provides robust performance even in extreme multipath environments • Systematic FEC codes to allow flexible decoding implementation

  6. Pulse Shaping • Pulse-based UWB technology allows the use of • Latitude in pulse shape allow implementation to optimize for different issues: • Control spectrum • Improve performance in different areas • Minimize complexity • Baseline pulse is specified • Additional optional modifications are identified • Composite pulse based on linear combination • Chirp & CS  intended to reduce cross-correlation • Phase incoherent pulse [was “chaos”]

  7. Precision Ranging • Precision ranging capability is provided • MAC layer support: • PHY layer support: variable preamble lengths provided to support channel estimation and multipath correction • Ranging protocols

  8. Scalability • Extreme multipath conditions • Reduced PRF for operation in extreme channels • High density deployments • Multiple codes per operating band • Time dithering for piconet isolation • High processing gain for isolation • Alternate symbol rates to trade off robustness and channel duty cycle
