Abstract

This work deals with M-sequence UWB Radio architectures for high-precision indoor localization and low data rate radio transmission. So far, UWB M-sequence devices were only used in Radar mode which applies wired synchronization between transmitter and receiver. Radio systems have different architecture since receiver and transmitter are spatially separated from each other. This paper focuses on the phase and frequency synchronization between the clock of the transmitter and receiver. The proposed architecture deals with 10 gigachips per second achieving a high frequency bandwidth ranging from DC upto 5GHz or consequently from 5GHz to 15GHz depending on the device structure. It is very costly and power demanding to process such signals in the digital domain to perform the synchronization. Thus, a low power and low cost technique is introduced using analog blocks for the synchronization achieving a maximum error of 5ps.
