This letter proposes cyclic prefixed single carrier transmission with frequency domain equalization (SC-FDE) as an alternative physical layer solution for UWB communications. The performance of SC-FDE over IEEE 802.15.3a UWB channel models is analyzed, simulated and compared with that of impulse based single carrier UWB (SC-UWB) and multicarrier UWB employing orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM-UWB). The impact of channel coding on the performance of OFDM and SC-FDE in UWB is also studied. Our results demonstrate performance advantage of the SC-FDE scheme, especially when implementation issues such as low complexity and low power consumption for UWB are taken into consideration. The performance of SC-FDE with diversity combining using oversampling is also investigated
