  1. 1. Impulse Radio UWB for the Internet-of-Things : A Study on UHF/UWB Hybrid Solution

    Author : Zhuo Zou; Hannu Tenhunen; Tor Sverre Lande; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ultra-Wideband; impulse radio; IR-UWB; RFID; asymmetric links; UHF UWB hybrid; wireless sensing; energy detection; low power; radio receiver; positioning; Internet-of-Things;

    Abstract : This dissertation investigates Ultra-Wideband (UWB) techniques for the next generation Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) towards the Internet-of-Things (IoT). In particular, an ultra-high frequency (UHF) wireless-powered UWB radio (UHF/UWB hybrid) with asymmetric links is explored from system architecture to circuit implementation. READ MORE

  2. 2. On Modulation and Detection Schemes for Low-Complexity Impulse Radio UWB Communications

    Author : Muhammad Gufran Khan; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; UWB; RAKE; Transmitted reference; Energy detection; Channel measurements; BPPM;

    Abstract : Due to wealth of advantages offered by short range ultra wideband (UWB) technology, such as capacity improvement, fading reduction and localization, it has gathered a considerable attention. Distinct UWB qualities also pose many system design challenges like difficulties in using digital processing, complex channel estimation and different propagation characteristics. READ MORE

  3. 3. Human Detection and Tracking with UWB radar

    Author : Melika Hozhabri; Maria Lindén; Nikola Petrovic; Martin Ekström; Robin Augustine; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; UWB radar; signal processing; human detection; elektronik; Electronics;

    Abstract : As robots and automated machineries are increasingly replacing the manual operations, protecting humans who are working in collaboration with these machines is becoming an increasingly important task. Technologies such as cameras, infra-red and seismic sensors as well as radar systems are used for presence detection and localization of human beings. READ MORE

  4. 4. Low profile antennas for UWB

    Author : Magnus Karlsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : The number of wireless communication applications increases steadily, leading to the competition for currently allocated frequency bands. Pressure on authorities around the world to permit communication in higher and wider frequency ranges to achieve higher wireless capacity than those existed in the past has resulted in several new specifications.

  5. 5. Sensor Fusion and Calibration of Inertial Sensors, Vision, Ultra-Wideband and GPS

    Author : Jeroen D. Hol; Thomas Schön; Fredrik Gustafsson; Bo Bernhardsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Sensor fusion; calibration; inertial sensors; vision; UWB; GPS; Automatic control; Reglerteknik;

    Abstract : The usage of inertial sensors has traditionally been confined primarily to the aviation and marine industry due to their associated cost and bulkiness. During the last decade, however, inertial sensors have undergone a rather dramatic reduction in both size and cost with the introduction of MEMS technology. READ MORE
