Abstract

A novel paradigm is proposed to design time-limited pulse shapes for ultra-wideband communication systems. Pulses can be designed using the new paradigm that not only conform to spectral emission constraints, but also achieve good bit error rate performance in multiple access interference environments. Compared with previously proposed pulses, the novel pulses provide the same multiple access performance as the Gaussian monocycles yet have advantages over them in terms of power spectrum and spectral emission constraints. Our pulse design paradigm provides a flexible and effective method for designing suitable pulses for ultra-wideband communication applications that comply with frequency emission constraints
